JVC Sports Wireless Headphones

The JVC Sports Wireless headphones series was developed with feedback from runners to support daily training with the aid of music. The carefully selected materials prevent the headphones from falling off due to sweat, and ensure the comfortable fit necessary for long hours of training.

Water resistance (IPX5) to withstand sweat and rain, eight to nine hour battery life for Bluetooth operation, and an ability to allow ambient sounds such as approaching traffic to be heard make the headphones ideal for runners. The series includes two models – the in-ear HA-ET50BT and ear-clip HA-EC30BT.
