      Hi ReadysonV,

      We're so glad that you appreciate the top-notch sound quality and robust design of our WH-1000XM5. We're sorry you've been running into difficulty. For comfort, try adjusting the headband and the earpads properly. Our WH-1000XM5 has a slider that you can use to adjust the length of the headband to get the best fit and for comfortable listening experience. These lightweight headphones are beautifully finished in newly developed soft fit leather. This material fits snugly around the head with less pressure on the ears while keeping out external sounds.

      Note: If you put on the headset without adjusting the slider, the headset may not be positioned properly on your head, resulting in discomfort or a weak noise canceling effect.
