Find your fit for continuous comfort during warm-up, workout, and cool-down
- Find your fit:
To ensure a secure fit in your ears, we have included 4 sizes of ear fins and another 4 sizes of eartips, since everyone’s ears are different. The soft, smooth silicone material holds the earbuds in your ears comfortably and securely. The ear fins provide excellent support during workouts without wrapping around the ears, so they won’t interfere with glasses or sunglasses.
- Cable management:
You can adjust the length of the cable behind your neck by moving the cable slider*, so that the earbuds fit better and the cable does not swing.
*Cable slider can also be detached.
Sweat- and water proof construction
IPX5-rated* waterproof construction provides reliable performance during your hardest workouts and allows you to wash the sweat from the SPORT90BT when your workout is finished.
