I was super stoked to be picked to be on the ShokzSquad and try out AfterShokzs Trekz Titanium Pink headphones! I'll start this review by stating that I use to always run with headphones when I first started running. Over the last couple years, I have forgone the headphones for a couple different reasons. The first is that I never seemed to find a pair that fit comfortably. They were always falling out or needing adjusting. I also hated the cord. There were a couple of times when I was using the treadmill at the gym and had my phone propped up on the handlebar. I would be running and swing my arms catching the headphone cord and sending my phone flying off the treadmill. It was a hazard zone to run next to me! I also got knocked up and popped out a few kiddos over the last 4 years which has changed me into a stroller momma. The majority of my miles are now logged with a stroller. Pushing a stroller I have to be able to hear traffic along with the million requests from my toddler. Traditional, in ear headphones didn't allow me to feel safe while wearing them and pushing my stroller. So after a few runs wearing the AfterShokz headphones, here is what I love: 1. Safety- The design of these bone conduction headphones allows you to hear it all with their open ear design. So, I can hear cars approaching, requests for snacks, or cheers from other runners in awe of me pushing 100+ pounds! 2. Fit- These headphones rest on the outside of your ears, genius! This means I'm not having to have them fall out of my ears or be uncomfortable having things jammed into my ears. They are also Bluetooth so NO CORDS!! I've tried Bluetooth headphones in the past, but they squeezed my head and ended up giving me a headache. These rest around your ears so they don't squeeze. I honestly can't even tell I'm wearing them most of the time. 3. Style- Two words....HOT PINK!!!! For you non pink lovers out there (yes I suppose we can still be friends) they have headphones in other colors as well. 5. Cause- The absolute best part of these headphones is the cause they are helping to support. For every unit sold through October 31st, 2016 on aftershokz.com, AfterShokz will donate 25% of proceeds to Bright Pink – a non profit that focuses on breast and ovarian cancer awareness and education I'm definitely a fan now of these awesome headphones and you can get in on the action too! If you use the hashtag #AwareWithPink on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter AfterShokz will donate 25¢ to Bright Pink. You can check them out at http://aftershokz.com/collections/wireless/products/trekz-titanium-pink. You can also get a FREE case with purchase of Aftershokz Pink Trekz.
