Amazing sound but loose fit ):
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones have the best nose cancellation and sound quality ever!! but it does need to lose 2 stars just for how inconvenient they are to travel with because they don’t fold up, and they fit pretty lose, they slip whenever I’m exercising which is what I mainly got them for. One time my friend tried them on and starting nodding her head to the music, and they flew off and chipped
