Their sound quality will not be the greatest, but that's not the only card in the deck. These leave the ears open to the outside world, affording greater spatial awareness. This is important in certain contexts, such as jogging outdoors-- hence the water resistance rating.

In terms of sound quality, nothing will beat open-back full-size headphones, but those are bulky, not resistant to the elements, and leak sound to the outside world. IEMs also offer greater sound quality than these bone-conduction devices, but they block outside sound and may not be comfortable for the task. These are just another alternative for people who want a different set of features.
You're correct, but not dying is important to me when I'm trail or (particularly) road running, and I need to hear around me. Same goes for snowboarding; I've found them to be useful, enabling me to hear my riding buddy. Sound quality is good enough for workout environments, but with magnitudes better spatial awareness.

Honestly, I even find them handy in the office now and again if I'm just listening to something simple and want to be able to hear a coworker walk up (although often I don't want to hear anything).
I've had these for a year or so, and I am an avid runner. I enjoy them because, as previous commenters have said, they strike a balance between sufficient sound and allowing for awareness of one's surroundings. Also, I have small, hard-to-fit ear canals, and most in-ear headphones are a pain to wear. For me, these are a great alternative. They're lightweight and can take a beating. I definitely wish I had bought mine for this price.

Thanks! Was going to buy the Aeropex but couldn't justify it. This is only $5 more than the Titanium and half off, so went with this.

Bone conduction should never be higher quality than air conduction unless you have hearing loss...

Are these an old model? I don't show them listed on their website.

Edit: Nevermind, they're just listed as "Air" on the website.

For anyone else wondering what the heck these are, they are headphones that you wear and the "speaker" goes closer to your face instead of in your ear.

I've never heard of these, or seen anything like this before. I've got to convince myself I don't need them.

Many reviews say they are great for podcasts and audiobooks.

In fact if audiobooks is your primary use, these Air at $60 make far more sense than the Aeropex at $112.

For music quality and/or max volume, the more expensive Aeropex might be worth it.
