The PowerBeats are wireless (a plus) and wrap around the ears (a huge plus) as well as sound pretty nice. They serve well for my running and gym and are now my select pair for my jogging and gym.

**Exchanged the red for the white at about 30 days as they didn't have the white when I originally purchased. Apple didn't have a problem with it**
I have version 1 of the Power Beats that are wired and want to upgrade to version 2 but I typically use my iPod Classic for running so this won't work. iPhone 6+ is too big for running. If the iPod Nano had built in bluetooth I'd possibly go that route with it.

I run with my 6+ all of the time. I wear runners tights so they have hip pockets to keep the phone close and tight. So the wireless phones fit nicely.
 
Plantronics Backbeat Fit are great. They stay perfectly in your ear. Sound quality is great and so is the battery life.
 
Powerbeats 2's. I can't recommend these highly enough. It seems like every Bluetooth set I've owned either had crappy sound quality or couldn't stand up to extreme moisture. The Powerbeats 2's are amazing on both fronts. I tried to kill them by sweating on them in hot muggy Louisiana summer heat but they refused to die. I think you could probably shower with them and they'd be ok. And the sound is amazing, not the bass heavy stereotype I was expecting but a full rich spectrum that made me actually want to listen to music more than podcasts.

Do these seal really well in ear? I'm looking for something that blocks out all other sound.

Well, I immediately put in some Comply Foam Tips so my answer is "Yes", they seal great. I'm not sure about the stock silicone ear buds. I highly recommend the Comply foam tips, they seal great giving better base response.
 
I like the Plantronics BackBeat. A bit pricy, but if you run regularly it's well worth it. Quality product. Watch out not to buy from any Chinese or Hongkong sellers as they will almost certainly be knockoffs.
