Saw a post about the old Nike kit and it reminded me of this.

I had one. It was great for clipping on my jacket so I could easily control the music while riding my motorcycle… until I replaced it with a shuffle.

I would put my shuffle on my sleeve and control it with my other hand. I remember once I was going over 200km/h and the song was staying alive when the music abruptly stopped. I looked down to see just the headphone cable flapping in the wind. By the time I circled around to find it, it had run over by at least 20 cars. 🥲

How do you solve that today? I've been looking for a bluetooth remote or similar to use while biking but haven't found anything I like yet. Not the same I know, but similar enough

I use apple EarPods pro.

“Hey siri skip” the voice control works in the helmet. The only thing I don’t like is because of their physical design (long shafts) they are almost guaranteed to fall out every time I take my helmet off.

If I buy a new set I will get the beats buds. They are very similar but don’t have the same physical shape.
