Whether you work from home, find yourself on an airplane more often than not, or simply want to turn down the volume of the outside world, noise-cancelling headphones are exactly the tool you need. Even the best value headphones will feel lacking if they don't come equipped with halfway decent noise cancellation.

Noise-canceling headphones are worth their weight in gold, but you don’t have to break the bank to get incredible audio quality, a long battery life and a sleek, ergonomic design as part of the package.

The best running headphones offer quality audio while also providing sweat resistance and a secure fit during jogs and treadmill exercises.
