Great for all those school books. I used the Bay Rum Beard Balm from Grave Before Shave and it was alright. This is my 3rd pair in maybe 10 years and the others only quit because I washed them. Me encanta estoy feliz, lo recomiendo se escucha bien alto que es lo que quería. Lasted a week round trip. ‘5’ is on the limit of laptops and may require an extra headphone amp. Perfect to excercise in the garage. And yes, def order a size up. They must have assembled it incorrectly because this thing is stout! He liked them and they are still comfortable and not falling apart because of use.
