Built for road running and cycling, the SHOKZ OpenRun S803 is an open-ear bone conduction sport headphone rated IP67 and weighing 26 g. It plays for up to 8 hours per charge, a 10-minute top-up adds 1.5 hours, and your ears stay open to traffic the whole time.
Who the SHOKZ OpenRun S803 is for
-
Road runners and cyclists: The transducers rest on your cheekbones, leaving your ears open to traffic, bikes and voices while music plays.
-
Rain, mud and heavy sweat: Rated IP67 and washable under the tap; SHOKZ lists heavy rain, mud and trail running among its best uses.
-
Runners whose earbuds fall out: A wraparound titanium band holds the 26 g frame steady, with nothing in your ear canals to work loose.
-
Phone and watch users: Bluetooth 5.1 pairs with any phone or watch, and SHOKZ's spec sheet lists multipoint pairing for two devices at once.
-
Podcasts and audiobooks: Spoken word and casual playlists suit bone conduction well; the trade-off of the design is lighter bass.
-
Skip it if: you plan to swim with it; SHOKZ rates the OpenRun IP67 but says it is not made for swimming.

FAQ
Can I still hear traffic while running with the OpenRun?
Yes — that is the whole point. The transducers rest on your cheekbones and leave your ears completely open, so you hear music and the car behind you at the same time. For road runners and cyclists this situational awareness is a genuine safety feature, not a gimmick.
OpenRun S803 or OpenRun Pro S810 — which should I pick?
The standard OpenRun is the proven default for most runners: secure wraparound fit, sweat-resistant, easy Bluetooth pairing with any phone or watch. The OpenRun Pro S810 (also in our store) steps up to 9th-gen bone conduction with SHOKZ TurboPitch bass enhancement and up to 10 hours of battery instead of 8, but it is rated IP55 rather than the S803's IP67. If you mainly need reliable, safe workout audio, the S803 is enough.
Does it come with a warranty?
Yes. We sell genuine brand-new stock covered by the full manufacturer warranty, plus 45-day returns and free US shipping, so you can try it on your regular running route risk-free.
