Those slippers are small, easy to store, easy to put on/off, and most importantly easy to wash and dry. It’s easy to just take it off and spin the twist out. The quality of the headphones belies the price, most importantly for me is the fact that the headphones are robust and can take heavy handling of tube travel from unintentional yanks of the cord to being dropped and stood on. I also have Cobb hill Patrice flat shoes that are also equally comfortable and require a insert on left foot only midway thru day. This is high quality and looks great. They are very comfortable,warm,but not hot,and have a decent sole for the trips out to the garbage cans. They are on the heavier side so if you are putting on the miles across a hospital they get to be a bit much. It packs well and is very durable! _____UPDATE (DECEMBER 2020)Bought another pair in another store at a reduced price in case the model gets discontinued. This headset is definitely one of a kind.
