What is an Open-Ear Headphone?

Unlike traditional audio devices, Shokz open-ear headphones do not sit inside your ear and they do not block off your ear canal, thus remove potential ear strain and stuffiness that conventional headphones may cause. They let external sounds to filter in, allowing you to maintain awareness of your surroundings while listening to music. No matter what you use headphones for, there is a Shokz to fulfil your preferences.

Bone Conduction Technology
Our sports headphones are powered by bone conduction technology, a revolutionary approach to audio transmission. Unlike traditional headphones that rely on speakers to transmit sound through the air, bone conduction technology utilizes vibrations sent through the cheekbones, delivering sound directly to the inner ear, bypassing the eardrum.

What the experts say

The Best Bone Conduction Headphones Yet.
They make the best case to date for ditching wireless earbuds — especially if you’re wearing them outdoors and want the safety of being able to hear ambient noise over your music.
Forbes
This is great from a safety perspective and comes with surprisingly little compromise on sound quality, which is excellent.
There’s also a comfort bonus – you don’t have to ram and twist them into your ears as you do with some buds.
RunnersWorld
AfterShokz uses bone conduction technology to send sound through vibrations up the cheekbones and to the ears as a safer option to run with music.
They’ll last for eight hours, covering a fair amount of running time when you don’t have to block up your ears.

What users say

“It’s My 
Personal Buddy”

“It’s My Personal Buddy”

It’s my personal buddy when I train alone and doing the virtual marathons.  During in person races, I could hear the crowd cheers and aware of my surroundings, and kept me going on long segments where there’s no crowd.
“Shokz Changed My Mindset.”

“Shokz Changed My Mindset.”

I purchased my Shokz to allow me to run safely and they have been with me through long runs, short runs, rainy runs, snowy runs, runs in new cities and runs that changed my mindset.
“It Was Really The Best.”

“It Was Really The Best.”

They accompanied me during my Cognac marathon. I was able to enjoy the music while talking with the other runners and hear all the encouragement without feeling it for more than 4 hours of effort, it was really the best.
“The Sound Quality Is Amazing.”

“The Sound Quality Is Amazing.”

The sound quality is amazing and what I love about my Shokz is the battery life, how they are easy to take on and off and can hear all the ambient noises which is really important for road cycling.
