I own the previous model Shokz Aeropex (that I love), which have supposedly simply been rebranded as this OpenRun model. Not true, bought an OpenRun set for my mom 4 months back and build+sound quality is markedly worse. Enough that I suspected they might be counterfeit at first. And they just died, won't charge, need to do warranty replacement. Wouldn't buy again.
I'm real picky when it comes to headphones. I have owned all sorts. These are not audiophile quality so don't expect that. They are I want to ride my bike and listen to music while still hearing other riders and rattlesnakes quality. For that, they fit the bill nicely.

These don't work for cutting grass/loud stuff like that but I have other headphones. Really like them for work and taking calls. If/when these die I'll prob give the Open Fits a try so I can use them while laying down

I previously had an Aftershokz Air, and I found the Shokz Openrun a nice all-round improvement. I will probably upgrade again in another year.

They are great for what they are designed to do. At the office I need to be able to hear things around me, but also want to be able to listen to music or a podcast. Also having something in my ear for long periods becomes uncomfortable.
If you are an audiophile and are expecting to get some get lost in the music experience, these are not the headphone for you. If you are active and need to be able to enjoy listening to something, but also need to have the ability to hear what is happening around you, these are a fantastic option.
I have ordered a set of the openrun pro's as it is my understanding that they are the aeropex replacements, not the standard openruns. I do not know what the difference is between them, but if they are as good as my aeropex I will be happy. This way I can have a set at the office and a set at home.
Remember that you can still cause hearing loss with these even though they do not go in or over the ear, at least that is why my audiologist says.
