From the Shokz Aeropex model at the top of the range to the titanium-infused Trex, there’s a style and sound for everyone. Take your time and open up all available options for your audio with our exclusive Headphones Buying Guide.

Good Vibrations, Great Sound

What makes Shokz special is the way that sound is produced. Traditional headphones and earbuds use small speakers to move air and make waves that vibrate your eardrum, allowing you to hear the sound. Shokz skips the eardrum entirely and sends the vibrations straight to your middle and inner ear. This takes advantage of the fact that there are tiny bones inside the ear that can be used to transmit audio, using your body's own natural skill of transmitting sound through its bones. Have you ever heard intense sounds inside your head when eating crunchy foods or grinding your teeth? That's bone conduction at work naturally. Harnessing this human talent has allowed Shokz to create an entire new product category.

Benefits of Bone Conduction

Shokz work in a way that is different from regular headphones, and their design reflects this as well. Since the eardrum isn't a part of the equation, earbuds in your ear canal or big headphone cups covering your ears are a thing of the past. In fact, your ears stay open, with nothing in or on them. The bonus of this is immediately apparent - you can hear your music but also other sounds around you. Exercising outdoors while maintaining awareness of your surroundings is easy, and the safety factor is an awesome addition. With a lightweight design, IP67 water and dust resistance, and up to eight hours of battery life, Shokz has put advanced features into a compact package. Whether you're on your favorite piece of exercise equipment or running through the great outdoors, Shokz has you covered. Though not rated as an assistive hearing device, individuals with certain types of hearing loss will benefit from the bone conduction technology bypassing some of the human hardware normally involved in listening.

By using your body to bring the audio to your brain, an entirely new experience has been created. Paired with a portable audio device or smartphone, Shokz gives you great sound on the go.
