Would these be good on a plane ride (20+ hours)???

Sure, these are pretty comfortable! And you get a 'Sony' pouch to wrap them in.

yes,i used them 2 months on a ten hour flight.i took them off every so often

I've never flown that long but I can certainly say I wouldn't want any earbuds in my ears too long. They are comfortable but I think the longest I've ever had them in is maybe an hour.

I find them rather comfortable although I ve not attempted to wear them anywhere near that long but I wouldn't think twice about taking them on a long trip.

I don't think these reduce airplane noise per say but they are noise canceling headphones and works real well at home or when on road trips in the car, I haven't tried using them on a airplane yet but I think you should consider these headphones.

They are not noise canceling headphones. However with an open air design incorporated into these headphones along with the large cushioned ear cups. They offer a really comfortable fit with not much ear fatigue after several hours of listening. Most ambient noises like talking, the tv, being in the car or out on the street is completely eliminated by the design of the ear cups. I have not used them on a plane yet. But I would assume that the hum of a passenger airline engine would not be much of a factor in disturbing the sound quality eathier. Hope this helps in your decision.

Not too bad, but of course they're not really designed as noise-cancelling specifically. I wore them on a 14 hour flight from LA to Sydney and it certainly made a difference though.

Haven't used them on a flight, but they'd probably be decent though they don't have any type of active noise suppression. While they do come with foam isolation tips, I use Comply isolation tips that seem to provide more privacy - they're another 20 bucks for 3 pair, but worth it IMO.

Not so good for working out, they will fly off and are a little heavy. These are better for plane or train trips. Plus when you have the sound reducer on, the head phones make a little noise that bothers me, but I may be just being a little picky on the last part.

For me they wouldn't do to well on a long plane trip because they lack in noise cancellation... which is both good and bad I guess. All the background noise will kill some of the depth and quality these headphones can produce, but you'll be able to hear announcements or when someones trying to talk to you. I'm always amazed at the sound quality I get in the middle of the night when it's dead quiet.

You know I wore them on the plane and I think I adjusted them, I am out of town and my headphones are at home. If you want I can check again tomorrow night once we are reunited...and let you know for sure! :)

They seemed to work well for our kitten. They did seem to work within 30 minutes and wore off within an hour so I don't know if they would be good for a long flight. I would suggest asking your vet.

I game with them. When playing a real good game I can't put down, these ear phones can feel unconformable after about 6 hours. That's not too bad. They won't injure your ears after wearing them that long. You would be good to go the next day for another 6 hours. If I was taking a trip to Asia, or Australia or Africa, where I would basically have them on for 12 - 24 hours, then you might want to look else where.

Just want to make sure that you meant socks as these are not shoes. Yes, I used this pair for long travel...21 hours total flights. They are tight by design, but not to the point that they're too uncomfortable.

These come with an adapter plug that is standard for airplane seats. They don't weigh very much, probably a little less than a better quality pair of noise canceling headphones. I haven't gone through a battery yet, especially since I haven't been using the "noise canceling effects", but the package says it should last for 25 hours.

Sorry, I only use for plane rides, and it works great for long hauls (5+ hours). It definitely makes plane rides bearable now, highly recommended.

I would say yes. I've never used mine for travel but I couldn't see why they wouldn't be great for it. They sound fantastic and the fact that they are very sturdy is a definite plus. You can feel free to wear them around your neck when not in use, as they're quite stylish in my opinion, or you could use the small bag that comes in the packaging to tote them around which I find very helpful and use regularly to store my sol republics. Lastly, the simple design that allows you to separate the head band from the actual driving units of each ear and the detachable cable makes them the most portable and space efficient over-the-ear headphones I've personally seen.

They are not "noise canceling" per se but I think they would do fine. They work great on a plane.

I've tried this on a 14 hour trans-oceanic flight. Your ears might start to ache after 4 hours of wearing them, and you can still hear the jet engines. Yeah, they're not noise-cancelling. But hey, I still love them -- besides, we don't go on a trans-atlantic flight every day, now, do we? lol

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.
