I may wear these in socially questionable situations...
I bought these in preparation for a DIY exterior house project. I anticipated spending a lot of time getting to know my orbital sander at a level we hadn't previously been accustomed. I found these online and thought I was probably dreaming when I imagined listening to podcasts during such a loud project and so preparing myself emotionally for the likelihood that the product description was equal parts marketing and truth. Turned out to all be truth. These things are amazing. They do cancel and block construction noise while delivering great sound quality.
There are some slightly clunky product details—these were not designed by Apple in Cupertino, California after all. The rubber cover flap that protects the input jacks is weak and illformed; mine already fell off. And I really think a device like this, at this price, should have a built in rechargeable battery.
If you see a guy on a plane or ballgame with these on, say hi, good chance it's me.
