Can anyone recommend a good, comfortable lightweight headphone that WON'T fry out when running in the rain?

Bonus points if they also don't fall out every 1/4 mile when they get wet with sweat and/or rain.

I have a pair of Sony ones that go over your head and have pieces that stick in your ear.  Not as slick looking as the iPod ones, but they do stay in a lot better. They were $10 at Target.

They are these ones .

I don't see anything at those links that suggests that either of these headphones are water-resistant.  Am I missing something?

I had these until they mysteriously walked off and loved them:

I have the same pair. Honest, I didn't steal yours sartyr .

I haven't worn them in the rain that much, but I sweat a lot and they've heald up for over a year now.

I'm using Klipsch Custom 2 earphones.  I like them so far, and they've stood up to the sweat, but I don't have the fit right as the seal moves.  It creates an annoying pressure change in my ears when running but at least they stay in!  And the sound is far better than the stock earbuds.

 Those are some highspeed looking headphones, living in Miami, I need a pair that is water resistant, glad I looked in here in my daily trolling.
