The motivation – iFrogz Summit Wireless Sport Performance Earbuds
Whether you enjoy running, gym workouts or dancing, there’s always one thing that you need – the right music to motivate you.
However, if you’re anything like us, you often find yourself tangled up in headphone wires. Alternatively, your earbuds fall out when you get carried away with your workout.
This is why we love the iFrogz Summit Sport Performance Wireless Earbuds. They operate via Bluetooth so you can simply pop your iPod or phone into your pocket and get to work, with no wires to annoy you. They also come with secure fit wings that ensure your earbuds fit snugly into your ears without budging.
The earbuds are available from Takelot and retail for roughly R559.
