I'm possibly the sweatiest guy you'll ever hear about and when i hit the gym I'm always drenched. I'm looking for earbuds that'll hopefully fulfill my desire of listening to loud music without having the person next to me judge me as sometimes sounds tend to leak when turned on too loud. I currently own a pair of samsung iconx and they've served me great however they'll need to be retired very soon as after i run for 20-30min the sweat dampens the sound. It does fix itself when i clean the earbuds however whilst working out, my session tends to last longer than 20-30min. I'm open to the option of trying wireless headphones however I've never used them before. I'm currently leaning towards buying galaxy buds however I fear they'll have the same issue as their predecessor. Any suggestions on some good earbuds/earphones would be great. No real budget however we're on ozbargain so it'd be great if they not only serve my purpose but are also a bargain.

I like my Trekz Air bone conduction headphones, no issue with sweat dampening sound or getting wet. They are better for cycling or running so you can still hear traffic ect. If you have a lot of background noise you put earplugs in. Normal plug style may be better just for gym but thought I would mention these as they may fit for multipurpose
I've looked at them before, any issues with nausea since it uses vibrations?
No never had any issues and I get motion sick quite easily, I use them every day with no issues (1.5yrs now), on my 3 hr rides I usually wear 1 (left) earplug as the wind gets too loud for quiet podcasts but would be fine for music. Never ran out of battery but I charge them most nights (Im pretty sure Ive run them past the 6hr manufacturers specs).
If you’re just looking for headphones for the gym, I’d go either AirPod pro or Powerbeats Pro
I bought the AirPods to possibly use at work, and the NC is not right. You can hear yourself talk, and annoys the crap out of me
