Hello! We're glad to hear of your interest in our new headphones! These headphones are not designed for strenuous physical activities like the gym. This is mostly because the headset uses touch sensitive controls on the side of the headset. Once you start getting sweaty from your workout, much like with touch-sensitive phones, you be unlikely to be able to control this easily, and this may result in unintended functionality, such as accidentally skipping tracks if it does not register an input correctly. Furthermore, these headphones are IPX4 rated, meaning that these are water/liquid resistant, but we do not recommend constant exposure to liquids or sweat, as this may cause the ear-cushions to degrade or wither over time. We would recommend that you look at our SoundSport Free headphones if you are interested in a headset that is designed for use with these sorts of activities!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.NO! NO! NO! There are phones specifically designed for heavy physical activity. I’ve had to learn this the hard way, as I’m a very physically active guy. And, yes, I do sweat a lot, too.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you can, but I don't know about basketball, are you playing alone? If that is the case then yes, but I mean I guess you can also use them with the noise cancelling off and the augmented reality feature will help with playing with others.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I wouldn't recommend them for gym use. When I was on the sit-up bench they almost immediately fell off. When on the treadmill they would bounce around on my head. I often found myself having to take them off. I wouldn't say I have a small head by any means either, they just don't have that snug fit required for gym use. Also, they don't breath very well, so any little bit of sweet (I'm not a sweeter either) quickly made them slippery and humid feeling. There are plenty of guys at the gym who wear and love their 35s though.
