Pros & Cons
Pros
These have great, well-rounded sound, without the added danger of cancelling out traffic and the world around you. They're lightweight and have excellent sound quality. My music and streaming sounds good to me.
I remembered having some like them a long time ago. I hope this pair lasts half as long! I hope they keep making! The koss sportapros are still reasonable. Despite their low end price tag.
Cons
Headphone is too wide and the cord frays. The speakers sit too high up on the ear, rather than being nicely centered. The earpieces are poorly shaped, making them uncomfortable or even downright painful to wear for long periods of time.
The sound out of the speaker is scratchy and tinny. The audio is bizarrely low volume and not enough bass. The sound quality isn't great either; it's only slightly better than what you'd get from a cheapity-cheap pair of supermarket headphones.
These are worthless. The pads come loose and fall off after a few months. They just fall down onto your shoulders, which makes them completely useless.

Bought this a while ago and it still works like a champ.
The comparable philips headphones are impossible to get at a reasonable price either.
