If you're still on the hunt for the perfect Christmas gift for the runner in your life, take a look at this latest Amazon deal on the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2. This pair of bone conducting earbuds is currently on sale for $40, and as of Dec. 16 you can purchase for just $139.95.

Bone conduction headphones sit on your cheekbones and transmit sound through vibrations directly to your inner ear, rather than through the ear canal (air conduction, which is the traditional way sound reaches your ears). They keep ears open, so you can still hear background sounds like traffic or conversations. They’re especially useful for running and cycling, keeping the user safe and aware of their surroundings.

The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 combine bone conduction with air conduction technology using dual drivers to give you a powerful sound. You can adjust the listening experience using dedicated EQ modes in the Shokz app, too. These modes include a Classic Mode and a Volume Boost option for noisier environments. If you use your earbuds for calls or voice notes, dual wind-resistant microphones and AI noise reduction are designed to reduce background noise, including wind, so your voice is picked up nice and clear.

The battery life is impressive too, with a single charge promising to last up to 12 hours, and it only takes an hour to charge up.

Get this Shokz deal from Amazon in time for Christmas.
