Are the shorts noisy? Other products similar to this tend to make alot of noise when my thighs touch while walking or running.

I don't find them to be noisy, I put my workout pants on over them which may help.

Yes, in my opinion, you should be concerned. *My* thighs are large (not even overly so - 5'8", 160pd) and they don't stay up at all. They still keep my legs warm (from just above the knee to the foot), but they don't stay up (for me). I wear them under sweats.

Hi Debra, a great question!! The mechanism will NOT make noise as you are wearing it, UNLESS it dislodges or losens from the armband. However, it IS designed to emit a beep or series of beeps to ALERT you to something. 99% of the time, I don't even know I'm wearing it. I was self conscience at first about people knowing, but in the summer time when wearing a sleevless blouse it is pretty evident. It becomes a conversation piece, and I've noticed people are really interested in the concept. I hope you enjoy yours and reap the benefits of a fit body!! It REALLY DOES work!!!

In the past I have encountered the same issue. With this mattress pad, I can move all I want and hear no noise at all. This pad is not like your cheaper pads.

It makes noise when running. Whether its to little or to much is a matter of opinion.

I have several pairs of padded bike shorts and am a long distance rider. It is definitely not too thick. I don't think anyone makes a bike short that is too thick. My other shorts have thicker padding. These shorts will not be good for long rides. Also, these appear to run big and the material is very thin. Too big means the shorts will shift and the crotch will bunch up. This will cause hot spots and rubbing in sensitive spots.

I have not experienced any issues when I go out walking or jogging, but that is the extent of my exercising. I do not do much weightlifting, although I wear these things all day long and haven't had issues with them falling off. During work I only hang one side since my headphone for work uses the other ear. :)

I wear it around my waist were it would be on my waist band if i had no shirt, some people wear it a bit higher, i do not recommend wearing it where it is only on skin, there always is slight movement while running aka chaffing!

Definitely don't wear underwear w the compression shorts. They are very comfortable to wear under shorts or athletic pants. I recommend them. I wear them every time I work out or run

I bought these for my teenage sons. They do not wear the ear buds while exercising, however just wearing around everyday they have no complaints about them rubbing against other zippers or buttons and irritating.

Yes, there is some noise, but not bad; I normally don't sweat that much, so it's not too hot for me.

Its too heavy for running or active working out. It has leather like ear pad so it won't feel good when you sweat. Its audio jack is kind thick for working out. It will bother you.

They are noticeable. Keep in mind that when walking, you will not hear the jingle as much. This is because the noise generated is behind you, kinda like the exhaust noise on a motorcycle. These spurs are definitely for show and the jingle will attract the attention of those around.

I have found that most of my squeaks seem to come from the rubber pads on the footrests. I can adjust the position of my feet to eliminate most of the noise. Maybe you could try to wedge something thin in next to the pad and see if it helps any.

I sweat a ton when working out and so far so good (used for a few weeks) - generally try to avoid sweating directly on the unit but I'm sure there's been at least a little bit of water exposure. Clip them to my shirt (where a shirt pocket would be) so a little inconvenient from that perspective since my workout shirts don't have a pocket or other obvious clipping point. Also need to reclip occasionally depending on the exercise... ie back exercises like rows or reverse butterflies where the chest butts up against the machineWas actually pretty surprised by the sound quality for a bluetooth device...

Yeah I guess so. The pockets are quite deep. But the issue with these shorts is that they travel up my thighs when I'm running so I ended up not using them in the gym. :(

I use these to run and when I run, I sweat. A lot! They stay in place, don't move around. Will they drown out your lawnmower? Probably. My concern when I run with them is that I cannot hear anything other than my music. This includes traffic, dogs, and an occasional--lawn mower! You should be ok. I hope this helps.
