"I wear glasses, so I really wanted to find a headset with smaller earpads. I also find foam earpads itchy. I was very pleased to find this smaller set with the leatherette earpads.



Most commercial brand headsets have a larger over-the-ear design, a behind-the-head design, or foam earpads. This se …"  Read Full Review »
