Which sport headphones suit your workout?
🏃♂️ Jogging & Outdoor Running
When running, safety is just as important as motivation. You need sport headphones that stay in place, withstand sweat and weather – and still let you hear your surroundings. That’s how you stay focused without shutting out the world completely.
What matters:
✓ Secure fit – even during long runs
✓ Sweat and weather resistance
✓Open sound profile to stay aware of ambient noise
Product tip:
The AMIRON 200 Open-Ear headphones are your training partner when safety and sound need to go hand in hand. Thanks to their open design, you’ll hear your surroundings clearly – without missing out on motivating audio. The ergonomic earhook ensures a stable fit, even when sprinting or running over cobblestones. With IP54 certification, they’re also perfect for rainy-day runs.
🚴♀️ Cycling
On the bike, full concentration is key. Your headphones need to be lightweight and compact to fit comfortably under your helmet. At the same time, it’s crucial to stay aware of traffic and signals – for maximum safety.
What matters:
✓ Compact, lightweight design
✓ Stability during movement and vibration
✓Awareness of surroundings (traffic, signals)
Product tip:
We also recommend the AMIRON 200 here. It offers the safety you need while delivering powerful sound – ideal for dynamic rides with focus and flow.
🏋️♀️ Gym
At the gym, it’s all about focus. You need sound that drives you – without distractions. Noises like clanking weights or chatter are best blocked out with Active Noise Cancelling (ANC). That way, you stay fully in your zone.
What matters:
✓ Powerful, detailed sound
✓ Effective ANC for peace and concentration
✓ Comfortable fit – even during long sessions
Product tip:
The AMIRON 300 True Wireless In-Ear headphones with ANC deliver maximum power for your workout. Deep bass, clear highs and the ability to block out ambient noise keep you fully focused. Wireless, compact and with long battery life, they’re the perfect companion for intense sessions.
Not a fan of in-ears? Then try the AVENTHO 100 On-Ear or over-ear headphones such as AVENTHO 200 or AVENTHO 300 – both equipped with ANC and impressive battery performance.
🧘♀️ Yoga
In yoga, sound is above all a gentle companion. Your headphones shouldn’t restrict you – they should support you softly with clear playback and high comfort. A secure fit is also essential so you can move freely and enjoy full range of motion.
What matters:
✓ Lightweight, comfortable wear
✓ Clear, balanced sound quality
✓ Minimal distraction from ambient noise
Product tip:
We recommend headphones that sit securely in or on your ears – depending on your personal preference. Choose the AMIRON 300 In-Ear headphones or opt for an Open-Ear model like the AMIRON ZERO or AMIRON 200.
Decide whether you want to use ANC to fully immerse yourself in your flow – or prefer to stay aware of your surroundings, especially during calm yoga sessions at home or in the studio.
Every detail counts – especially Sound
Standard headphones are made for everyday use – not for movement, sweat and dynamic workouts. Sport headphones, on the other hand, are true performers: they stay securely in place, withstand the elements and deliver exactly the push you need.
Here’s a quick summary of what to look for when choosing headphones for sport:
✓Secure fit: Stays in place even during jumps, quick changes of direction or intense exercises
✓ Weather resistance: Reliable performance in rain, heat or long sessions
✓ Battery life & charging options
For long workouts or spontaneous sessions – fast-charging is a plus
✓ Bluetooth® & connection stability: A stable connection is essential, especially during fast movements
✓ Motivation & focus: The right sound at the right time gets you into the flow – and helps you push beyond your limits
