This might seem like an unusual question, but how big are the actual parts that go over your ears?

Contact BOSE directly - they will create a case for you and reply very quickly. I have fairly large ears ..and these go completely over the ears and barely touch my ears. So, they are designed to 'cup' over each ear and not sit on top as to crush or flatten the ear down like some will do;

connected to the ear pieces are metal frames that allow you to pull them down....maybe an 1and1/2 inches at most....the actual part that sits on your head is not adjustable...its sort of a hard plastic

They cover your ears for the most part. 2 3/4 inches in diameter - round earpads.

They are contoured and for them to fit properly they must go over the ear not under. These are not tiny little ear buds that fit inside your ear. They are probably 1" long and 75% of that remains outside the ear. They also have some good weight to them and placing them over the ear gives you support and keeps them from hitting the ground if they are ever accidentally dislodged. I would hate to see a grown man cry because his $300 ear buds were damaged because they fell off and got damaged.

ON ear. I do not have small ears, but these are definitely not over ear for me. The cushioning is oval shaped, the opening has an internal height of 57mm (2.25 inches), an internal width of 38mm (1.5 inches) and depth to the foam of 10mm (3/8 inch), if your ears are these dimensions or smaller they will be over ear for you.

They are pretty long. I think I have already cut mine, and they are still 20" long. Remember they fit high up on the neck, right behind the ears and pretty snug. I buckle at the top of the neck, and the unit sits on the side. If it is tight enough, you can slip two fingers under it at the top of the neck and the unit will not slide down under the neck.

I believe 5 x 3.5... or close to that. I have big ears and it covers all of my ears.

not entirely correct lindsay. the only true adjustable part is the longer black piece that loops around your ear. you can adjust somewhat how far the bud goes into your ear. i think you will be okay.

These are meant to go over your ears. That having been said, they might still be a little large for some people.

I think you are asking "do they sit over the whole ear". Yes they do. (unless you have really big ears). I find them comfortable and use them frequently on 13 hour Pacific flights.

I wear a hat size 7 7/8 and they fit fine. But they do go around the back of your head and up and over your ears. I think they're pretty comfortable.

I find that they cover most of the ear. They kind of sit on the lobe of the ear, but the top is covered.

They are a little over five inches long or approximately 10 mm. They are not quite 5.5 inches.

I don't know how big your ears are, but they fit over my ears just fine. I have to adjust them at first to get my ears comfortably inside, but that's no big deal. Also I wear glasses and the padding fit snugly over the bows. I have owned maybe 4 different types of hearing protection like these, and I like the 3M Peltors the best.

Yes they come with 2 other pieces, small and large, that's the only way to size it I guess, the ones that come on them out of the package I believe are medium, and just switch them out to what ever fits your ears the best, I love these types of earphones

I think my ears are average. They fit over my ears very comcomfortably. I think the headphones still have some room. The pads are not pressing on my ears.

The small domes that I purchased are 0.350 inches long and over that length they taper down from a round end of about 0.100 inches in diameter to a diameter of 0.230 inches at the large end. They are a tight fit over my hearing aid tube which has a diameter of 0.130 inches at the "barbed" end, but they stretch enough to fit over the end.
