Good quality for the price particularly when bought on sale, as I did. Thin wall thickness stainless steel so light weight when worn.

Material seems cheap. Wore them for a few days and seem to cause my ears to get irritated. Changed to a diff pair everything was fine. Put these back in and same thing happened.

Very lightweight as made from thin gauge steel tubing. Reasonable workmanship and polish considering the price.
