Product Description

Sony MDR-G57G Street Style(R) S2 Sports Headphones - These headphones take the headband off your head and move it to rest comfortably behind your neck. Though developed for use with all Sony Walkman(R) personal stereo players, they'll deliver top-quality sound from virtually any brand of portable stereo. They're also a good choice for use with an iPod or portable MP3 player, especially on the street.

With a secure, non-slip fit, these headphones are ideal for a variety of outdoor (and indoor) sports activities. Superb sound, stressless comfort, outstanding mobility, exceptional freedom - that's the philosophy behind these Street Style(R) S2 Sports Headphones.

Product has improved

I purchased these head phones about 3 months ago and I would agree with all the reviews.You can't listen to the head phones for more than 30 mins with out pain in the back of your ears.My cats recently got a hold of them and I pruchased a new set yesterday.The backing is now soft rubber as opposed to hard plastic.I have had no discomfort using them as of yet.Looks like the only thing worng with this product has been fixed.Before puchasing I would make sure you are getting the soft rubber and not...

They hurt your ears after prolonged wear

These earphones are ok.I have a real problem with the earbud earphones falling out of my ears so i had to go with a set of these that clip on.I wear them while working out and they stay on.But after about 1/2 an hour, they do start to hurt your ears.I'm not sure what exactly causes the pain.I just know that about 1/2 hour into my workout, i have to take them off and rest my ears....

Foam replacement

I've owned these headphones for years.The foam pads have needed to be changed for quite some time, but I never knew where to get replacement foam pads.The sound quality on these headphones is still good so I didn't want to get rid of them.I looked online for replacement headphones and found they charge $15.95 a piece or as little as $2.95, plus shipping.I suggest you check your local dollar store for cheapy knock off headphones that look like the style of the Sony Headphones and take the foam pads...

Awesome for running!

I bought these headphones to replace the not-so-great pair I received with my MP3 player.I am a runner (treadmill and outside) and I never have problem with these headphones staying on.They don't hurt me at all like some other folks are saying.I especially like how the wire is connected to only the left side.I'm also a musician and I think the sound quality is "good".I'm sure there are better sounding headphones, but these do the trick.With good quality MP3s (192 and up) you can hear the bass clearly...

Buyer Beware

Beware -- this item is not being sold by Amazon, and they WILL try to substitute a lesser headphone if they are out of stock!!! Pay close attention to the order confirmation email they send!!! MDR-G57G S2 and MDR-G57G are DIFFERENT HEADPHONES! When I questioned the sudden change of part numbers from a more expensive to less expensive item my order was cancelled, but I received no response or explanation....
