The joy of going hands-free can soon be tarnished by the anguish of losing an earbud.

Whether you’re working out, traveling or just walking the dog, hooked headphones move with you. As they reach around the ear, they don’t feel as “jammed in” as other in-ear options and the handy hook means you don’t have to worry about one falling out when you bend over or move your head.

We got options that are wired and not, budget and splurge-y and even waterproof for swimming laps or taking a shower. We hope to hook you up wit your new favorite pair of hooked headphones. 

Spice up your tech life with this pair of over-ear headphones that come in seven great colors. They have up to 40 hours of listening time between charges and controls on the earbuds for easy listening. 

A little more spendy, but for good reason: These Anker earbuds have rotatable ear hooks that can twist 210 degrees. Bend them to fit your ears perfectly and control them with the Soundcore app. 

Promising review: "I was tired of trying to use earbuds during my workouts. I decided to try the Sport X10. Very pleased, no more falling out when bend over to do rows or bench. Long battery life. No down side easy to recommend." —ROBERT GENTLEMAN

Rather than going behind the back of the ear, these "open clip" headphones go over the side, so they won't dig into your head or feel too stuffed in your ears. This pair is from one of our favorite budget headphone brands, and you get 10 hours of listening time on a single charge.

Promising review: "These are perfect for my weird ears! I can not wear any traditional earbuds. They fall out. And any of them that fit inside irritate me. I have bad ADHD and am hypersensitive. These have great sound and great voice when I get a call. And I sear them ALL DAY LONG and forget about them and actually laugh when a call comes in and freaks me out! It’s a pleasant surprise for me!!! Thank you!!!" —Mbbanks

Get them from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in three colors).

Or, if you love your existing buds, these genius clips are compatible with AirPods 1, 2, 3, pro and pro 2 to turn them into hooked headphones. They've been a consistently top-selling item here and come in nine colors. 

Promising review: "AirPods that actually stay in my ears! I’ve tried every tip, wing, and foam insert on the market for my AirPods Pro, but nothing worked until I found these WC HookZ. If you have "non-AirPod shaped ears" like I do, these are a total game changer. They wrap securely over the ear without feeling bulky. I can finally go for a long run or hit a heavy bag session without constantly poking my ears to keep the pods from falling out. The material is surprisingly soft. I wore them for a three-hour flight last week and actually forgot I had the hooks on." —Lawrence W. Allhands

Keep your buds connected with this set of hooked Bluetooth headphones. They offer up to 16 hours of playtime between charges with high-quality treble and bass. This pair comes with four pairs of ear caps, to find your perfect in-ear fit and to reduce outside noise. Best, they're made to be sweat and splash-resistant, to be worn in workouts or the rain. 

Promising review: "They have great sound and they stay in my ears and I love the cord as you can hang it on your neck and not have a couple little pieces to get lost" —Mikswah

Get them from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in four colors).

Noise cancelling and Apple's H2 headphone chip make these Beats Powerbeats a top-of-the-line option. They can gain 90 minutes of play time with just five minutes in the charging case and are water and sweat-resistant to go with you to the gym or commuting in the rain. These come in four colors. 

Promising review: "ANC is on par with AirPod Pro 3’s. The volume level is higher than the AirPod Pro 3’s which is absolutely fantastic. The fitment on ear is superior to AirPod 3’s. The high, lows, and bass are pretty good; superior to AirPod Pro 3’s. Absolute perfect buy on my end, don’t wait to purchase them! Especially if they’re on sale. :)" —Edgar

Truly ensure your buds don't run away with this set of wired hooked headphones. They come in lightning, AUX or USB-C inputs, to fit your personal devices and have a button on the headphone for easy controlling and the built-in microphone lets you take calls on the go.  

Promising review: "Works great and no worries of dropping them and losing my headphones again." —G. and D. Hayes
