I doubt I could lay on them because they stick out a bit too far, but I had no problem wearing them normally. I dont shop online often (no im not old, i just like trying things on! I am not an audiophile to provide professional but only personal feedback. These are, at best, a $5 pair of headphones. I thought it would be a cheap fabric but it actually feels really nice! They are used both with his PC and smartphone. Overall this works fine for shooters when youre listening for mid to high noises, but if you are listening to music or watching movies regularly I would recommend looking for different headphones. I have very slim feet so was worried that they would be too big, but as you can adjust the top they fit really nicely and look good. Onto the headphones:These feel very nice. But these were fantastic!
