Does it play underwater?

Yes, in MP3 mode. Load your music or podcasts on the headphones before you swim and they play from the headphones themselves, with your phone left in the locker. Bluetooth signals don’t travel through water, so use Bluetooth with your phone on land: runs, the gym, the drive home.

IP68: submersible to 2 m (6.5 ft) for up to 2 hours. Up to 9 hours in Bluetooth mode, up to 6 hours in MP3 mode.

What swimmers say

“These are pretty sick if you ask me.”

Two cheat codes if you suck at swimming like me or if you want to swim for a long period of time without ever getting bored. First, don't be afraid to use a snorkel like me. You're not Michael Phelps. You're not trying to be. And number two are these […] headphones. These are headphones that are designed to be worn while you're swimming, and it doesn't even go in your ear. They're open ear audio system. They're bone conducting headphones and the audio is extremely crisp. […] All you have to do is just download your music or your podcast into the headphones in advance and just start swimming with the headphones on. These are pretty sick if you ask me.

Questions

Before you order

Does Bluetooth work underwater?

No, and that is true of every Bluetooth headphone: the signal doesn’t travel through water. That is what MP3 mode is for. Load your music or podcasts on the headphones before you swim, and they play from the headphones themselves, with your phone left in the locker.

Out of the water, switch to Bluetooth and use them with your phone like any headphones.

Can I really swim with them?

Yes. They are rated IP68 and can stay underwater down to 2 m (6.5 ft) for up to 2 hours. That covers pool laps and swimming near the surface. They are not made for diving.

How does bone conduction work?

The pads rest on your cheekbones, in front of your ears, and send the sound as tiny vibrations through the bone to your inner ear. Nothing goes in your ear canal, so your ears stay open.

It sounds different from earbuds: clear voices and music, lighter on bass. Podcasts and audiobooks are perfect for it.

How long does the battery last?

Up to 9 hours of playback in Bluetooth mode and up to 6 hours in MP3 mode. Battery life depends on the volume.

I’m not a great swimmer. Is this for me?

Especially. It won’t fix your stroke, but it fixes the part that makes most people quit: the boredom. A podcast turns twenty slow laps into one episode, and you stop watching the clock.

Can I wear them out of the water?

Yes. They are sweatproof, and because your ears stay open you still hear traffic on a run and people talking at the gym.

Is ECDF a real company? What if they don’t work for me?

Yes. ECDF sells from ecdf-usa.com, every order ships with a tracking number, and a real person answers support@ecdf-usa.com within 24 to 48 business hours.

If they are not for you, email us within 30 days of delivery with your order number and send them back. The refund goes to your original payment method.

Your next swim, with a soundtrack.

Bone conduction, open-ear, IP68. MP3 in the water, Bluetooth on land.
