The Bottom Line	Sony's sleek, metallic-blue Street Style headphones look sharp and offer clear sound.	The MDR-A35G headphones are ideal for active pursuits, such as jogging.	Aiwa's affordable HP-JS36 Swoops headphones are a good bet for joggers and exercisers.	The Philips Nike SBC HJ050 headphones have a secure-fitting, sports-oriented design, but they're a little too snug for long-term comfort.	The Koss KSC22s' exceptionally secure, comfortable fit make them a good choice for runners and gym bunnies, but their sound quality is strictly mediocre.
