There’s something about working out to music that makes you want to work a little harder, run a little faster, jump a little higher, right? But finding headphones can can stand all that sweat and bouncing around is easier said than done.
I’ve tried so many brands over the years… I’ve tried headphones with awesome sound that fell out of my ears as soon as I ran in them. I’ve tried headphones with average sound that stayed in my ears but had freakishly long cables that got tangled around my elbows. And I’ve tried wireless headphones with decent sound that fell out of my ears as soon as I did my first burpee.
But at long long (long) last I have found pair of wireless headphones with great sound, and I’ve worn them running AND during high intensity sessions – burpees and all – without having to push them back into my ears a single time. No joke. And, in even more exciting news, I’ve got a pair to give away to one of you guys as well!
First, let me tell you about them.
Audiofly AF100W wireless headphones (RRP $189)
There are a lot of seriously impressive things about these wireless headphones, but there’s plenty of time for you to read about that yourself here later. Before you do that, I want to tell you why I love them. As I mentioned, they stay in my ears no matter the workout. I cannot overstate the importance of this – there is almost nothing more annoying on a run than constantly shoving your headphones back into your ears. Secondly, the Bluetooth is solid – I’ve had zero issues with connectivity. And thirdly, you get five hours battery life out of them so you’re not having to charge every second workout.
So who is Audiofly?
OK so I didn’t know anything about the brand before being introduced to these headphones, but I have learnt some excellent stuff. For starters, they’re an Australian brand, based in Perth. They’re all about musicians and music lovers, which explains the crisp sound. Somehow though they’ve also really nailed the sports market too because did i mention that THESE HEADPHONES DON’T FALL OUT OF MY EARS?

I need these because n.o.t.h.i.n.g. stays in my ears – I’ve had more different headphones than I’ve had hot breakfasts and none of them do the job! I’ve just got my feet fixed so I’ll be running again soon and this would be the PERFECT winter motivator!
Heya, I would LOVE to win these so I can get back into running. I had my first child 4 months ago and need something to get me back outdoors!
I have a pair of wireless headphones that I love, but ideally I would love them for my partner. He’s had a crappy year in the past 12 months, not being able to walk far because of regular attacks of gout and other medical issues. However he has perservered being an all round great guy, trying to ride or catch the bus to uni or to prac at the local primary school. I’d love these as a surprise for him as he’s just starting to be able to do longer walks and wants to do the bloody long walk later in the year (35km) which these would be perfect for.
I’ve just started running again and have been thinking about wireless headphones but didn’t even know where to start, so this review is perfect timing. I need these in my life so I can get all that time back I spend untangling my wired ones!
Ahhh the hardest part about HIIT training with headphones, is the headphones! For so long I’ve tangled my head in the wires.. I have been desperately looking for a good version of headphones that won’t annoy me! I’m also from Perth, living in Sydney so would love love love some Perth merchandise back in my life ! ❤️
I’ve just started at a new gym and the music they have blaring doesn’t get me moving like I should. I’m on a spending fast so no $ to buy a set to wear so I can listen to some descent music whilst trying to grow my booty ?
I need them because my Plantronics earphones broke because clearly the quality is nothing on Ausiofly!
I would love love love these it would make my runs so much better! I hate getting all tangled in my earphone cords. I’m just starting to enjoy my runs again and making progress, and these would be another insentive to smash goals!!!!
These earphones would so help me (and my dog) from getting caught up in my earphone cord! (And i could so walk around the house listening to tunes and not my kids fighting with each other!)
Oh I would love these. Ear phones are my nemesis at the gym or when I go out running. They get either get really tangled or fall out. I would so love a pair of wireless earphones that actually kickass and do as they are supposed to.
My beats broke… along with my kneecap for the second time in two years… I’m back to walking but the silence is deafening… nothing worse than being depressed about an injury and being left alone with your own thoughts.. sooo… I’ve taken to singing ‘I’m a SURVIVOR… I’m gonna make it… not gonna stop..keep on surviving’ under my breath like a mad Beyoncé..
I’ve been looking for decent headphones for ages for the gym & for walking/jogging. I’m working on reigniting my fitness journey which was going so magnificently before Christmas & has just started falling over a bit this year& these would be a perfect help. My spending is also on a fitness plan, so I can’t the afford ones I would love (like these!). I’m sure these are a need for me (not just a want!).
I need these so there is not an excuse in the world I can use to get out of some burpees and boxing sessions.
I’m SO ready to float like a butterfly, sting like bee & not get tangled up in the spiderwebs that are headphones..
Music and fitness are a perfection match! The right beat to a certain workout can push you further and you lose track of time! Don’t own a cordless Bluetooth pair of headphones but my current ones can table when I run or pop out of my ear making me lose momentum! These sound perfect!
Just getting back into running and my goodness, my current headphones are a menace. Falling out of my ears, the cord tangling.. I’d love these headphones to help me on my fitness journey with some comfortable headphones and awesome tunes!
I need these for my partner so she doesn’t have to listen to my rants .
Okay but. Earphones falling out on the treadmill is my whole life. Bad audio quality is a total killer for my weights sessions. In the Venn diagram of what I need from workout headphones, these sound like my perfect match!! Pleeeeeeaase pick me Jess!!!
The cord of my apple ear buds gets caught on my beard ?
