By Sarah in Gadgets Tags: Earbuds, Earphones, Focus 400 Earphones, for women, sports earphones, Yurbuds
I have awful trouble with headphones…the ones with earbuds never stay in my ears, especially if I am moving about. And I have absolutely no hope keeping them in when running…apparently I have weird ear canals! I could use over the ear headphones, but I find they are more suited to when you are sitting […]
