How slim are these on your head? I don't like super bulky and/or square-looking headphones. I want some that fit to the shape of your head.

Hey Nancy, I find the fit very comfortable but these are definitely not as sleek on the head as Beats ... Sony is more like "old school" audiophile headphones ... big with lots of cushion to seal all around the ears. So it just depends on your taste. Dr Dre Beats are probably the best for new style with good quality sound ... but they rest on the ear, not all the way around like the Sony's do. -Hope that helps!

I have a large head and they are very tight on me. But they should be good for someone with a small head. Also they aren't as durable as you might expect. However, they do sound very nice and balanced. If you want some smaller headphones, I'd check out the Sennheiser 219, 229, and the 239. They are smaller yet still sound fantastic. I'd also recommend the Panasonic rp-htx7. The are nice, light, low profile, and have a fun sound signature.

I have them mostly collapsed and they fit comfortably over my large skull without crushing my ears. I'm going to say they are giving me far less trouble than most headphones as far as pressure on sensitive cartilage and I grew up borrowing snazzy cans from my audiophile, electronic-musician brother. I've also found the slant of the cups happens to conform well to my ear shape, though your mileage may vary.

I agree with the previous responses and wear mine hanging down. They are too big for my head as well and the sound is better hanging down.

It really depends on the shape of your head but generally due to the mesh hammock, these are supper comfy. I have funny ears that stick out a bit... No issue at all. I love em!!Best headphones out there for indoor at this price and the sound is amazing.

I have a lot of issues with my ear canals being too small for headphones. It seems like the left is smaller then the right also. When I put these in, I can definitely tell they fit much better than anything else I've ever tried, however, they still fall out after a few minutes of running. The left falls out faster, but the right one eventually works its way out also. If you just want them for casual use and not for sports, I think they'd work fine. They feel snug and actually go into my ears and seem to block outside noise really well. Hope that helps!

I haven't personally tried them with this case, but it's not thick or bulky. I looked them up on google, and it doesn't look like there would be an issue, but I can't say for sure. I use the regular straight plug earphones. I can send you a picture of it up close or something to your e-mail if you'd like? Just let me know. Sorry I couldn't answer your question better. =-\

Initially they do seem huge if compared to say Apple's product. I have had mine for the last 6 months and they are by far the best headphones/ear buds I have ever owned. I would advise you to take the time and try different size ear tips until you have a snug and comfortable fit. Lastly, the flat cord is next to impossible to tangle. You made a great purchase. Good listening...

No, they're just slightly larger than a regular size headphone. It's nothing like the humongous headphones in vogue.

Sorry, my friend, that's one for someone who lives in the metric world! (I'm sure Google has some sort of metric conversion chart!) But they fit over the classic high-quality Sony earphones, if that matters to you.)

Hit answer by mistake; they are good headphones; I would cation if used for extended use and confirm the return policy of the seller. Then wear them for the day see how they feel. Good luck in your search.

I have small ears and they fit great. You should give them a try. I hope you like them.

The neck ones suck for exercising. They stay in your ears-but the neck band rubs against your clothes and you pick up the sound. It's really annoying. I found them unlistenable. I only tried them because I've been forced into wearing hats when I run (skin issues). Try the Sony MDR-AS35. I ordered a pair of Sennheiser (Adidas) PX 685i. They are over the head. Have not tried them yet (still using my Sony pair). The look like they may be great. Barr Hill

That's the only issue I have. I wish they had better bass. But it's not a deal breaker for me. I only use them at the gym and they are great for cancelling noise, even though I wear a hoodie and the headphones over my hoodie, they sound great and don't get hot. I listen to rap, hop hop, and rock mostly. And they sound great all across the board. I like them better then beats. And if it helps. They don't fall off my head they fit nice and snug.

I ordered them months ago, and really like them. In fact, I thought they were so comfortable that I fell asleep with them on several times! Good luck, and hope you enjoy your new headphones!

These are not large headphones. I've tried them with people who have big heads and small heads and no one has ever complained. Usually with headphones you have to worry about them being too small. It's definitely worth a shot.

honestly, i cant say for 100% sure but my friend who has a pretty big head said they fit pretty comfortably and for me theyre very nice and the sound quality, is astounding to me, so id say go for it bud.
