It's comfortable but not very light. Also a bit bulky. It doesn't hurt but you are right that it does sweat your ears a bit. I live in a cold climate so it wouldn't be something I'd wear if I'm traveling to Florida but NYC during the winter sure.

It fits comfortably over the ear,no sweat for me but I tend to take them off to speak with people.

There not the lightest but not uncomfortable to wear. They form tightly around your ear and provide great sound. I wear these more then I wear my more expensive corded Beats. Buy them you won't be disappointed

They are very good, sound good low, the only thing is that like bluetooth, sometimes the signal is cut, it happens with me mac, but with the iphone all well, well worth the price so you will receive, regards

If you're talking Baggage Claim at the airport, that would depend on the chaos and noise level around you and how far off it is. You should be able to hear it pretty good once it's on the turnstile. I use mine when away from home to make sure I've packed my items before leaving someone's house or a hotel room, or at the back of the car to make sure I have my kindle, my keys, my cell phone, my wallet and other things that are crucial to have (I have more than one set). I can stand in the hotel room and hear the beeping quite plainly thru my luggage... or just find which bag has the item in it. No problem at all hearing thru the luggage. Just remember that it will only locate/beep back at you if you "hold" the button down. So, my experience has been really good. Distance is great enough for my house and my sister's house, and I've even used it to find keys in a regular Marshall's store. As far as thru walls and stuff... Found stuff in a closet, underneath a seat, in the chair cushion pushed way down, under the bed and other weird and surprising places. Wish they made these for eyeglasses and socks!!

I recently flew to Europe last week, own a pair of those & a Sony MDR7506. I was comparing them; that JVC amazed me. It blocked 90%+ of cabin noises', jet sound included. It's not something that you will feel immediately, it's kind of progressive, then nothing. Feels comfortable& the sound quality is awesome.

As a recruiter I wear it 6-7 hours a day and its comfortable--just be careful of the bridge between the ear muffs- made of plastic and easily gets broken-- I mended mine with black duct tape.

It's real leather,plus on their website you can order the thicker ear pads which are ultra plush.Also with them being thicker it enhances bass.

It is very very light. i just tried removed the foam after you question, i don't feel anything i wore headphone. You can definitely have this. You will feel only when cord is hanging if you dont clip it.

Idk about the combat but the transform is really comfortable for an active life style, it's light and stays on ur ear very comfortambly the problem is the Sound quality, for the price ur paying the audio quality is really bad.

Personally, I find them much more comfortable than a pair of in-ears in most cases. As noted previously, they are not noise-cancelling. Also, they do not isolate nearly as well as some other cans and definitely not as well as most in-ears. However, they are very light-weight, and have very large ear cups. The biggest factor in the comfort is how tightly they clamp onto your head... if you've got a big noggin, they may feel tight which would give you a headache after a while. If not, you're good to go. Even if they don't work out for you on the plane ride, you'd be hard pressed to find more comfortable and better sounding cans than these for the same price. Very much worth owning.

I think these are more comfortable than the $30 ones. I can wear them for ~4 hours and then it only hurts a little behind my ears. Sound quality is probably better too, but I can't remember because I bought the $30 ones so long ago. If you're looking for comfort- buy these. If you're looking for style and/or a cheaper version- buy the $30 ones.

Actually its sheepskin, much softer than leather. However I prefer the foam, larger diameter & even softer.Does not feel as though its perched on u're ear & may slide off @ any moment. Have been using VXI Blueparrot's (B150 & up) for 20+ years. NOTHING better. I do not like the Express or B350 models. Design flaws.

No. The pressure isn't a problem, but the sweat is. I don't think you're going to find a noise cancelling headphone where that'll be true. The most comfortable headphones I have are 'open', and I can wear those for hours comfortably. The Bose are very comfortable for closed, over the ear headphones, but I still get a bit hot after a couple hours, e.g. after a full movie.

Not a trans-Atlantic flight but i did use them straight through a few cross country long flights in the US. They are very comfortable and you can leave them on for extended periods of time. The noise isolation is pretty good on the flight as well.

For me, these are "sit on an airplane and bask in envious glares" headphones... the fit is tight enough and the headband doesn't move much, but depending on use, the sweat might be a deal-breaker. Light stuff should be just fine though.

I would not recommend these headphones for longer flights. They do in fact sound great and diminish external noise just by the way they fit. However, they are not Noise Canceling headphones and have no electronic technology that diminshes external noise like the low hum of an airplane's jets. Moreover, the strength of the metal headband and the firmness of the ear cups can cause discomfort on the ears if the headphones are worn for an extended period of time (1.5+ hours). I would recommend that you search for headphones that have high ratings for comfort as well as noise canceling abilities. I would not recommend these headphones for longer flights.

I found them to be very lightweight and comfortable....I like the micro-suede material, too. After using them for a while, I also noticed that I hear outside noise if listening at normal levels like the other user's review.

I find the Ziks to be very comfortable. I also wear them for hours at a time and have never felt the need to take them off. I also had a pair of Bose headphones and I agree with Junggue that they are lighter but the sound is not near as good (or flexible) with the application.

I don't know about the leather ones. These are not noise-cancellation or isolation earphones. You can, however, wear them for long durations without discomfort. Like anything completely covering the ears they muffle the outside world to some extent.
