" ...  Comfort - They're very comfortable to wear and it shouldn't be a worry. ... Even if you have a big head/big ears they should fit all sizes, but i would still suggest to visit a shop and try them out yourself. ... They fit well and don't clamp down on you head, after 20-30 minutes you'll forget they're on your head. ... Durability - Headphones are pretty durable. ... Not extremely bendable like some of the high end pairs, but these will last you for years to come.  ...  "
