I've been using SE530 for listening while commuting or relaxing and I would use SF5P for the gym.

Today I made the big mistake of pairing my SE530 with my gym ipod shuffle for a short commute... now I don't think I can go to the gym without my SE530

The SE530s are just so comfortable and sound leagues ahead of SF5P. I wanted to avoid wearing such expensive earbuds to the gym but I don't think I can find a replacement that fits as well and sounds as good!

Just wanted to say that these earbuds have ruined my listening!!

Just sell SF5P and buy custom 3, it sound close to SE530 but different sound signature.......

The 530s should be fine with a bit of exercising, they are built pretty well.

The Shure SE530's build quality is very good, so there should be no reason not to wear them in the gym.

I've been using the SE530s in the gym for a long time without any problem.

They should be great for the gym. They would put you in your own little world when working out.

gym with se530 is fine except that cable is annoying on some machines (it is under my shirt, working out on machines that require a flat stomach can be hellish). they hold up against sweat well.just make sure u have spare foam tips ready since they turn gross after mixing with sweats.
