I previously used Jabra elite 2 & 3 for Teams and I find them comfy during long calls. I know the Elite 4 has ANC. Jabra got the Evolve 2 Teams buds but pretty pricey.

I am using jabra elite 2 - pretty cheap, just use one earbud and you got all transparency needed. For Everyday i use AirPods Pro 2 - they are shit on Bike when it comes to wind block. I also tried cheap bone conduction and they Were shit also. Just go for the cheapest one and just use one earbud at time - Jabra does the job

Jabra Elite here as well. I do about 1K miles/year, nearly all urban streets and nearly all with sound canceling (it’s never good enough to block all noise). Especially with electric cars, it’s about eyes and defensive running period. Ears are important, sure. But in the quiet electric era (or in cities with scooters and bikes cultures), I find myself looking way more than listening. I’ve been dense urban area running for 15+ years (think NYC and the like), and the change is real. I know the consensus is anti-sound canceling or anti-earbud and even anti-music. But I’ve run a ridiculous amount of miles over the years and music is a big part is my running. But to be fair, I chose my headphones based on battery life. Once I had a marathon go wrong and my headphones died at 3.5 hours and I limped to a 5 hour walking finish. Damn, even a touch of music might have helped the struggle. Best of luck!

Not the Shokz ones, that's for sure. I actually \*like\* music. (Just lolz!) Kidding aside, I'm wildly fussy when it comes to earbuds. I've had some more expensive ones like Jabra Elites and others, but they always fail within a year, and I have truthfully never found anything better sounding and longer lasting through daily sweat, snow, and accidental washing/drying than the lowly $25 JLAB GO POP+. YMMV of course. I OTOH will die on this hill.

I have also been thinking this, I'd say get anything that works. Closed Backs with ANC are probably your friend here. Also Bose is quite expensive....I have used Jabra Elites pretty good.
