any recommendations on sizing imogene and willie? their stuff looks amazing but jeans are just so... challenging (big butt gang)

You're right, I have the XM3, which kinda proves my point. If you are connected to having the best thing, headphones will not be a lifelong satisfaction purchase.

It's kind of unreasonable to think of an item like headphones as bifl.

I do have a pair of these that I've had for 5 years and I like them - but honestly I don't think they're better than any other wireless over ear headphone. You can get 95% of the value elsewhere for 20% of the price.
