love these
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I loved these headphones while testing them out on location. I have been contemplating buying these for a while and was waiting for a sale to purchase it. I got tired of using my airpods and they would pop out of my ears quite often. I like the feel of the over the ear headphones. I also enjoy the ambient change in different environments. Good investment.
