I should have heeded what I read...
This is not commentary on the seller, though the packaging (Bulk, NOT retail) was a little disconcerting. Doesn't come with alternate buds, just the ones attached, and they seemed to be rotated so that there was some fiddling to do before I could try them on.That said...I tested these out beforehand with my Kindle Fire for fit and general functionality, they're fine while sitting still. The bass response is lower than real in-ear buds but that's to be expected. Generally comfortable and they felt pretty securely-seated in both ears.I tried them out at the gym today, and I'm radically disappointed.My exercise of choice was a Precor AMT at 24 Hour Fitness... this is a low-impact stair-climber-ish machine that provides a reasonably-low vertical impulse (that is, not bouncing up and down like running). I hooked the earloops over my ears and tightened them in as I had done the day before and started going.At 15 minutes, the left bud was pulling away from my ear thanks to the torque of the poorly-engaged earloop. Once you're in motion and sweating it's of course no fun to try to fiddle with these kinds of things, so after two failed attempts to re-seat it in my ear I took it out and went mono.At 18 minutes the right one was no longer properly seated and it felt as though it was going to start torquing away from my ear so I just removed it completely and enjoyed gym music.The advice from the public seemed to be to trust the Yurbuds design itself and NOT go with the earloop models, and now I can see that is almost certainly good advice since the earloops didn't properly fit AND they add mass about the earbud to pull it away while you're on the move.Given the scant packaging and zero paper of any kind I can't say with authority that these are actually Yurbuds, though I'm also not accusing the seller of anything. I just can't say that these are the same product that I would get going with retail packaging, but I would like to return these and get a retail-packaged version of the Yurbuds without the earloops and with an additional set of buds to try for fit. Having given up on my Sony earloop ear buds which also fall out with any degree of sweaty motion, at this point I'm also considering over-ear headphones that won't try to leave without me...

Love these earbuds..
I was glad I found these here. I gotmy first pair of Ironman Yurbuds when they were first introduced to the market years ago. Well after using them so much, I simply wore them out. I was very glad to see these were out here and a bit cheaper due to the "un-blister packed" packaging. I'm a big music guy and these fit well when I out for a run or doing chores around the house. I highly recommend!

Pretty Awesome
I really like the sound but when I got them and tried them, in the left earbud something rattles in them. I dont think anything is broken but its annoying. The part that goes around the ear doesnt really flex to mold onto your ear so I have to keep moving them and adjusting them to make sure they stay in place. My ears are made weird anyway so I have a lot of trouble with earbuds/headphones.

Very disappointed
After receiving them, I tried putting them in my ears and one of them broke. I was able to put it back together; but that shouldn't have happened with a brand new pair. They came in a bulk plastic bag which I thought was rather chintzy for an item that costs 25.00.

Great earbuds
Got these for my son's birthday. He loves them and uses them everyday. Great gift and would definitely reorder for someone else.

poor sound quality
Does not fit tightly in the ears. Sound quality is sub standard to other inexpensive earbuds I have purchased in the past.

Nice sound.....but
Too many parts. Great sound and works well. Lost and found piece that goes around ear, now I lost the black piece that fits in ear. Now they are useless.
