The foam pads are a must, otherwise the whole sound is off and lacking decent mids and most of the bass. Dura bastante la carga Hard and uncomfortable, even if durable. but there is that difference. Bad decision ! Some of us are trying to sleep. Fits great and protects my case very well. At first I had some problems connecting to my phone after pairing the first time, but I think I was holding the button down too long when when powering up. They are well made, quilted for flexibility and have a fleece lining inside. As soon as I got them I tried them on and sadly, I could get my big toe in the toe-loop along with the 2 toes next to it.
