Advantages: 2 in 1! keeps ears warm and provides music! Disadvantages: rewind cord button
I was given these headphones as a gift a while back as I always complained about my ears being cold yet hating earmuffs because they hurt my ears after a while. My brother thought that these big fat cozy headphones would do the job and indeed they DO! I once thought they would be my winter headphones and revert back to those little "in the ear" jobs in summer...oh, but they are so comfy I wear them all year round.
Good points ... ...which fits nicely into a bag. The ear part forms a nice seal around the ear and ambient noise isn't high. However, if you live next to a jackhammer, the noise reduction function works well, watch out not to get runover by cars like I nearly do though... Cord length is adequate enough.

I was given these headphones as a gift a while back as I always complained about my ears being cold yet hating earmuffs because they hurt my ears after a while. My brother thought that these big fat cozy headphones would do the job and indeed they DO!

Good points first: They fold up neatly into a headphone foetal position which fits nicely into a bag. The ear part forms a nice seal around the ear and ambient noise isn't high. However, if you live next to a jackhammer, the noise reduction function works well, watch out not to get runover by cars like I nearly do though... Cord length is adequate enough. A very useful bit is the adjustable slidy bits on the side make these heaphones fit on even the most awkward shaped heads...Sometimes in winter I wear a big hat and they fit right over! Sound quality is great, no white noisey sounds you get in other headphones once in a while.
Bad point: The "rewind" button to bring your headphones back in or to make the length shorter in hard to use and in a difficult to reach space (underneath the head bit) which makes using this button while the set is on your head pretty difficult if you are lazy like me and end up moving the set off your head or tangling up your hair etc...not pleasant.
