Designed to withstand a drop in a stream or a tumble onto a boulder, the JBL Clip 3 is the ideal companion for anyone searching for a loud, robust Bluetooth speaker to accompany them on a bike ride or hike. There’s even an integrated metal carabiner that will keep it affixed to a backpack even during the most intense activities, such as mountain biking, and the built-in battery bundles more than enough juice to see it through 10 hours of use.

Frequent swimmer? You’ll love the JBL Endurance Dive. Just load them up with some of your favorite tracks (yes, they have built-in storage so you can leave your phone in the locker!), pop them in your ears, then jump in the water. You won’t have to squeeze in your 20 lengths at warp speed, either. The JBL Endurance Dive can last for up to 8 hours on a single charge and can be replenished with a quick 10-minute stint hooked up to an outlet.

JBL Live 400 — $70 ($30 off)

The JBL Live 400 are some of the best wireless headphones in the business, delivering a well-rounded listening experience at a price that won’t break the bank. You aren’t compromising on features, either — Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, depending on which tickles your fancy, can be accessed with the mere tap of an earcup, and the cans themself can withstand 24 hours of continuous listening before needing a quick charging break.

Plus, there’s a dedicated TalkThru mode that’ll lower the volume so you can have a conversation with the headphones still on your ear, and an Ambient Aware function that’ll let drips and drabs of background noise in, keeping you in tune with your surroundings while roaming the street or crossing a road. They’re also extremely comfortable, making them perfect long cardio sessions, and produce brain-tingling bass to rile you up for the next set.
