Looking to replace my headphones. I keep putting stuff on or off my head (mask, glasses, face shield...) and the headphones are in the way or simply don't work.

Looking for something maybe Bluetooth and noise reduction would be a plus. But the overriding feature is comfort for long hours.

What do you guys use?

Thanks
 
I have burned through a lot of Bluetooth speakers and headphones and by far my favort is the skull candy smokin buds2 head phones. 7hr battery and very comfortable to wear. I have tryied other blue tooth headphones and thy ALLWAYS fall off my neck or shift and slide down the back of m shirt. These have lasted me a year of heavy use every day just about. I use them at work and in the shop. I also used them the other day while weed eating and thy worked great in sound protection. The only thing about them that bug me about them is skipping forward or back takes what seams like to long of a putton hold on the head phones. Seams to take around 3 sec of hold time. To skip a song you have to hold the back button and once the current song starts over you have to let go of the button and push and hold it quickly again. If these things could be tweaked I would be tickled pink. But I love these things. I'm actually buying a second set because I work 12 hr days and thy don't last that long, I get 6-7hrs.

Thy are nice aren't thy. Thy seam to be quite tough. I'm really hard on ear buds and these have held up great. The cords seams like the weak place on all head phones and a busy I work with has gone through 3 sets of altic lancing blue tooth buds and he paid $50 a set. His lasted 20hrs per charge but a life time of a few months for $50 is not worth it. Glad I could help
