Flex Earbud Neck Straps

It was either this product or a similar one I saw on kickstarter a couple of years ago and I thought this was a great idea but for $15, at the time, to buy a strap that cost just as much as a pair of ear buds seemed ridiculous.Since then I've taken up running and wanting my tunes or audiobooks with me.Also, I've tested and reviewed 30+ bluetooth headphones.Yet I keep coming back to wired headphones and earbuds, but never found a good solution between having them in my ears, leaving one earbud out and one in or just having them around my neck in between listens. This solves all that.+ Nice solid strap+ I put the clip right below the remote on the right-side and then make it even on the left and it hangs well on my neck.+ The extra weight allows me to take these running without my earbuds or this strap flopping all over the place.+ The black goes with most clothing so it is the right color for meOVERALL: I don't know why I cared these cost the same as a pair of low end earbuds...the options I get by having them far out weight the small cost. Worth checking out!

Does a good job. Better than a wire as it is more comfortable.Confortable: plus qu'un cordon.

Edit: It looks like they've modified the clip design to make them more durable within the past couple of months. Check with some of the more recent reviews to give the new design a fair shake. If my current system wears out or needs to be replaced I may come back and get some new budstraps. They really were very comfortable.I really wanted to like these. They are comfortable, and they keep the cord on my headphones from tugging on my ears while I am running, so they work pretty well. They also have clips that fit the flat shape of the cord I have on my headphones, so these were really the only option out there.I purchased a set in January, and they lasted until the end of July. They failed when the clip broke at the hinge. So, I bought another one in August, and they failed again this morning at the clip hinge. I don't really run that often (maybe twice a week or so) so your mileage may vary. The clips also aren't super strong, if you tug on them too hard they will release the cord, but they never let go of the cord while I was running unless they got caught on something, so they hold firmly enough.I'm debating whether or not I should order another one today. I'm judging my other options right now. I'm just disappointed with their durability.

Best thing ever if you wear earbuds a lot! I ride a motorcycle and always have earbuds in. Many times when I would pull an ear bud out for any reason it would go flopping down, but this BudStrap keeps my buds close by for quick recovery!!! Thanks BudStraps! I will confess that I did try to "make my own" strap at home, but it just didn't work right. So I ordered this, and am glad I did. So I'm purchasing another BudStrap as I have misplaced my first one that I've had for a year - I cannot live without this when I'm wearing earbuds. So smart and easy to use. Mahalo!!!

It was great while it lasted. I had it for 2 months and the hinge part on the clip broke. It seem like a poor design. Otherwise it was great functionally just not quality wise.

Great idea, but extremely poor quality. One of the clips broke on the second day of use, for no apparent reason. It just fell apart while I was wearing it.I was really happy to find such a potentially useful gadget. I listen to audio-books several hours each day, and am constantly having to adjust my earbuds. The BudStrap did a good job of keeping things in place for the extremely short time that it held together.

I could never seem to get earbuds to stay in place, and when one side feel out it always pulled the other. However with the BudStraps even when my earbuds pop out, they don't go far. This is one of those " I didn't know I needed it till I got it" items. I wish I thought of this!!!!

I gotten these for work but was expecting the worst considering I work in construction, but they surprised me. The clips have a plastic feel and feels brittle. Could easily break if you stepped on it. The band is lightweight, breathable and also feels thin. If this, somehow, got caught on a nail or a sharp corner of a table, etc it might rip so far it seems to be fine. Would like to see metal clips and a thicker band for my line of work these are really meant for running, jogging or just a stroll. Nice to see this around. I've been struggling with my earbuds down my shirt for too many years! Even with the tough criticism that is why I give it for stars and hopefully this helped.
