Hello Sandi, This is the second AfterShokz headset I’ve had but I don’t think this particular model is still being made. However, there seem to be a couple of wired versions still available with mic of course. I find them really good for getting around Paris which is pretty noisy. My hearing isn’t great anymore, so bone-conduction works well for me. I also use them at home when my husband is working in the same room as me so as not to drive him insane with VoiceOver, and he says he can’t hear anything from them when I have the volume high enough for my own comfort. Cheers,
