The best deal in headphones, totally worth the money. When you inevitably break the cable you can snap some ksc-75 onto the headband for a cheap replacement that sounds great. I highly recommend picking up the yaxi pads for $12 too, they're super comfy.

Gotcha, yeah I'm not too worried about the hair pulling, mostly just whether theyre comfortable enough around the neck that I won't mind wearing them there any time I'm out and about and don't want them actively on my ears

I appreciate you sharing your thoughts!

I found porta pro to be completely comfortable around my neck. That was more than a decade ago now (my god), but the design should be the same. Occasionally they would yank out a hair from my neck, but not enough to really bother me.

Might buy a pair again actually, they were lightweight and served me well back in the day.

I'm glad you chimed in to add your perspective, that's genuinely really helpful. I think they'll probably end up as my earbuds replacement when I get around to replacing them
