At the price I paid for these, it would be nice to have a back up pair. I love this one. I take a size 7 medium shoe in almost every case and ordered accordingly, and although I did have to tighten the Velcro to its max, they fit very well. specially because you can not flex it enough to be right in front of you mouth. About 70 bucks delivered to my front door. He wears these all the time. Based on the construction and reviews from old people buying another pair, I anticipate they will last longer than three years, so it comes out at a better deal either way. No breaking in for me they just feel so good and they go with EVERYTHING! I think the style, case, and whatever superficial stuff was fine, but if my customers and colleagues hear the same quality that I get on my free pixel headphones (while having the jabras voice volume set to the lowest possible setting)??? Dumping in the return bin. Tack sharp.
