Faggy hipster trend.

Had good headphones since most hipsters were swimming round their daddies ballsack
-
I've had these for years, cost about $6, fit great, sound as good as some $50 headphones and they even survived the washing machine a few times.

The best right there. So bulky though can't wear them doing cardio and I work out with an intense pace. Therefore ear buds. Those head phones are bar none some of the best put there.
-
Some kind of Sony sumthin' or other at the gym.
Why the hell would anyone want to wear headphones at HOME though? Fuckin' dumb.
-
Ear buds for me. Studio sized headphones at the gym are super gay.

Best are Sony MDR7506 . they have been used in studios for years and years because they sound great.

Sony makes some of the best headphones. Superb clearity, no muddy low end.
-
I'm not into ear goggles because of their size. I used Marshall Minors until the phone controls failed, but they had great sound until then. I picked up Bose Soundsport about a year ago, and they're better than Powerbeats (a son had the Beats for comparison). The Bose aren't wireless, though.

At work and at the gym!

Cost? And do they take a battery?
-
Large headphones make you look like pretentious douche.
-
Just thinking about buying, maybe more for bike rides/traveling, not for gym. I like lot's of bass so I'd buy beats, but these are overpriced due to being trendy (but looks good still), pretty good sound, tho' there are better sounding hp for a lower price (not so good looking usualy).
-
cheap ones for the gym...
-
No headphones, but ear plugs, hate music when Im lifting, no need for it... I use these things...

Nothing in the gym.
audio technica ad900 at work (open)
audio technica a900x if I need something that doesn't bleed if I'm on a mic (closed)
sennheiser hd800 if I'm making or mixing music or listening to it
audio technica ad900x at home (open) if I can't be bothered turning on the headphone amp on for hd800
Which sounds excessive but I'm quite involved in audio creation / consumption. I would only mix on the hd800 and they are most comfortable of the bunch, though all my open headphones are quite comfortable.
No plans to expand this. I swear.

Best are sennheiser Orpheus, but cost 50 grand and need their own amp, after that the highest stax model whose name escapes me

Clearly the getbigger's choice. Stax are also looking mightily fine. AKG once had a contender for THE high end ear warmers... though I totally lost sight on what's the current benchmark.

-
Whatever is cheap and wraps over my ears.
-
I used to think the big obnoxious over the ear headphones were stupid to wear at the gym, but I ended up buying a pair that pair with my phone over Bluetooth and love it! Its some next brand, they're neon green, too. I've ditched ear buds at the gym for good after that. And the fact that I don't have a chord dangling and getting in the way is another plus.
-

100 bucks.
You just hook the headphones up to a micro-usb cable they provide to charge it.

White beats Bluetooth - the ones that wrap around your ear tho
Sucks when I forget to charge but the work good with my iPod
Except I leave the damn iPod around the gym and some fck always turns it in the front desk

Large headphones make you look like pretentious douche.
Especially when you are a douche to begin with and wear them in the following ways :
1 - Hanging around your neck with the music playing
2 - wearing them on your head but above each ear
3 - wearing them with one on your ear the other to the front of back of the opposite ear

For my flights, I have the Bose QC Noise cancelling headphones. Cost about $300 a few years ago, but I love them. Lightweight and really eliminate the plane and passenger noise. The audio from movies or music is crystal clear.
Normally I do not wear head phones to the gym or else where except when I am at the beach. But right now, I am trying out a new design of wireless ear buds that a friend of mine is developing with a leading hearing aid company. They look like the tiny invisible type hearing aids that go down in your ear canal and are basically invisible. I've had them for a month now and am still on the fence about them. Sound wise they are fantastic. You have the option of streaming your iphone, computer or smartTV to them via bluetooth. So you can enjoy tv late at night or in other situations where the sound/noise may bother others. Very light weight and I often forget that I am wearing them. You can even customize the outer shell back with various colors and with interchangeable "plates" with designs that glow with the back light when the buds are turned on There are not many now, but more coming and the option to make your own by uploading a design to their shop and having them made for about $6 is in works for the future.
What I don't like (so far) is that they are a bit TOO comfortable and like I said I often forget I am wearing them and have had people actually tap me on the shoulder and say "do you hear me talking to you?" If you want to listen to someone talking to you or hear something else, you can either (1) take them out of your ear or (2) hit the MUTE button on the remote which cancels the bluetooth stream and opens in a sound channel so you can hear what they are saying. This does of course require you to carry the remote with you which is the size of a Mercedes SmartKey. I don't really care for this because I do not like to junk up my pockets with needless items. The other concern is that you have to put them in a special case to recharge the internal battery. They are making a version that is a tad bigger but would run off a hearing aid battery for 5x the amount of each recharge.
There are some on the market like this already and they gave me 3 different brands to try before I got these so I could compare. I will say they are much better than the brands available in terms of comfort and sound quality.

I bring a saxophone to the gym with me, and just riff a bit between sets.
The other gymgoers are always buzzing about it, so you know they're impressed.
