I don't want to spend more than £70 tbh, considering they'll be given a hard life.

What can you recommend?

Ta.

If you want something that won't cost a bomb, sound good, comfy, and designed for copious sweat, Koss Sporta Pro headphones.

OK I'll admit, you look like you bought them in the '80's, but heck, who's that fussy?

Oh, and a lifetime guarantee. Proper no fuss. mine were replaced without a fuss when they died after 3 years of sweat soaking in the gym.

If like me you love bass heavy music, you really can't do better than Soul Flex for the price.

Five stars from What Hifi

Wasn't aware of other thread. tbf I'm only after wired, figured Bluetooth would be too costly.

A shade more than your budget allows, but these are frankly marvellous...

I'm looking at Yurbuds, seems quite a few runners recommend them. They are designed to stay in your ear, and not fall out, and sweat proof etc. Can get the basic model for about £15.

Yourbuds here - they don't come out - at all unless you yank them out.
Lots on here complain about wind noise but they are designed to allow ambient noise in (traffic, etc) for your safety.
Had mine in last night for a 3hr bouldering session - only came out when I took them out to speak to someone.
