I got them for business casual wear, and one of the first times I wore them, I was on my feet all day. This was perfect and exactly what I needed to keep my lenses clean. This doesnt work. Ive used these with Vidyo, WebEx, Skype, and GlobalMeet so far. Vendor sent me some troubleshooting ideas but none of them work. I also used it on my own skin which I had currently been using a steroid cream on and had the same outcome. Makes you VERY visible and the price is 1/5th of what they cost at town. The hood can be removed if you preferThere is only the two pockets in the front, no hidden or inside pockets. 9”. All together, these headphones have Sennheisers fanatical audio precision, but the control scheme and wear were a bit off.
