Why is the OpenFit 2 Series the Best Workout Earbuds?

The Future of Fitness Tech

Open-ear headphones have redefined the way we listen to audio, particularly during outdoor activities and indoor workouts. They offer unique benefits, like enhanced situational awareness, that traditional headphones simply can’t match. That’s why open-ear audio is the future of fitness tech. And at the forefront of this innovation are the latest workout headphones from Shokz, the OpenFit 2+ and OpenFit 2. Blending groundbreaking technology with a smart design, these headphones are setting a new gold standard for fitness, performance, and audio.

Why Open-Ear Headphones Matter in the Gym

1. Safety

Whether it’s clanging weights or someone trying to get your attention, staying aware of your surroundings helps prevent accidents.

2. Comfort

Their breathable design reduces ear sweat and pressure on the ear canal, making them ideal for long training sessions.

3. Connection

Easily chat with trainers and friends without taking off your headphones, thanks to their social-friendly design.

What features do workout headphones need to have?

1. Secure fit without any ear fatigue.

Not only is stability crucial, but so too is comfort. Whether you’re running, jumping, or lifting, you want headphones that’ll stay securely and comfortably in place. The best workout headphones are virtually unnoticeable on your ears. They don’t move around, fall off too easily, or hamper your breathing ability or your range of motion during exercise. The OpenFit 2 Series earbuds benefit from:

• A flexible ear-hook design that takes inspiration from the dimensions of the golden spiral, making it weight-optimized to ensure a secure fit. Plus, its integrated nickel-titanium alloy core allows it to mold to the contours of your ear for a more personalized fit. 

• Crafted with an inner layer of Shokz Ultra-Soft Silicone™ 2.0, these earbuds ensure all-day comfort and seamlessly blend into your workout routine.

2. IP55 Sweat and Water Resistance. 

With an IP55 rating, OpenFit 2 Series earbuds are durable enough to handle intense workouts and heavy rainfall. Whether you’re training indoors or caught in a sudden thunderstorm while jogging around the neighborhood, these earbuds can power through the elements. 

3. Open-Ear Design for Situational Awareness

Stay aware of your surroundings and effortlessly stay connected with trainers and friends, thanks to Shokz’s signature open-ear design. It uses advanced DirectPitchTM 2.0 Technology to accurately direct sound and minimize sound leakage, so your audio stays where it belongs – right between your ears. 

Whether there’s an emergency announcement, a dropped piece of equipment, or someone approaching from behind, OpenFit 2 Series earbuds allow you to lock into your workout without losing track of what’s happening around you.

4. Dynamic sound quality with Immersive Listening Experience

High-quality sound with a heart-thumping rhythm can significantly boost performance by helping you maintain a steady pace, improving your endurance, and maximizing your workout efficiency. At the same time, clear and powerful audio helps you dig deep when that last set feels impossible. It stimulates the brain, keeps your energy levels high, and makes the gym feel like a vibe rather than an obligation. 

For a refined open-ear sound experience, OpenFit 2 Series earbuds utilize DualBoostTM Technology, combining two independent drivers to deliver powerful low-frequency vibrations and sparkling highs. And with the OpenBass™ 2.0 algorithm, you can enjoy deep, resonant bass, directed precisely to your ears only.   

Taking sound quality to the next level, the newest OpenFit 2+ earbuds are equipped with Dolby Audio. This delivers advanced sound dimensionality and a more expansive soundscape, revealing ever nuanced detail with crystal-clear precision. 

5 Long battery life, music never stops.

Nobody wants to run out of battery mid-workout. And with OpenFit 2 Series earbuds, you can enjoy up to 11 hours of battery life with a single charge and up to 48 hours of total listening time with the charging case. And let’s say you decided on a last-minute workout but you need an extra boost. Thanks to Quick Charge, 10 minutes is all you need for 2 hours of additional playback. 

Looking for even more convenience? Our newest OpenFit 2+ offers Qi wireless charging. So you don’t have to worry about finding an outlet – simply place it down on the pad and power up.
