Earphone CORD

Ive been using earphones for some time now, and find that normal 'ipod' earphones are useless when jogging, and will fall out after every 4 steps...

So, i use 'in ear' or 'plug' ear phones.

But my annoying thing now, is this random fancy thing that they have done with a few earphones... one wire is longer than the other from where the individual L and R earphones connect....

Some crazy fashion where i have to rap one wire around my back, between my shorts, through the arm and then behind my neck, so its the perfect length with the other one... and i end up having wires hanging out left right n centre, and the shorter one always falls out from the strain...

ANY WAY, i need new ones.. the L earphone blew.. not sure how... but any way..

whats the word or description of ear phone cord i need to look for... so that when i buy earphones they have the same length cord! hehe

I've got the same problem with my earphones, even though I don't use them for running.

Why don't you check out the sports headphones that wrap round your ears?

I don't think their is a said keyword that describes equal length wires... It seems most aftermarket ones have equal lengths though?

You could always fork out and get some bluetooth ones, plug the sender into your mp3 player (or whatever) and enjoy wire-free music Or you could listen to the wonders of nature...
