I've got a pair of sony mdxsl somethings that are great for commuting, but continue to slip out of my ears when jogging due to sweat and the bouncing motion.

What model/brand do you guys use/recommend? I prefer earbuds over headphones.

I use E4Cs, they have an assortment of different ear buds. I like the foamy ones that you can squish down and insert into your ear. Sometimes even these will fall out though. What I have noticed is that the little fastener on the headphone cable that can be slid up and down helps a ton in keeping them in your ears but makes you look retarded if you slide it towards your chin.

I had the same problem as you OP, so I bought these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/produ...r=0D5NN9FKCS6NS84MY62G

They clip over your ears so there is no worry about them falling off and they are comfortable, so you don't even realize you are wearing them after a while. They are not the ultimate in sound quality, but they are good enough for when you are running.

I use shure e3cs. They stay in nicely but I have to insert them behind and over the top of my ear and then curl them around into my ear (which is how I think you're supposed to wear them anyway but before using running I just wore them like normal ear buds)
