I am a long time user of the 180 degree and, though I love them, I found it hard to keep up with them. . . no easy way to carry them in your pocket or purse. These are so flat and small, they fit nicely in your pocket or purse. They are snuggly warm, block the wind. I really like these! When I wear earrings I only clip them over the top part of my ear and they work equally well. *Tip* I found the manufacturer tags on the inside to be cold so I took them out. I highly recommend this product.

Last winter I'd wear a stocking cap on my runs to keep my ears warm but then my head would get sweaty so I'd take it off and then my ears would get cold etc. For this winter I wanted something like those behind the head ear-muffs to keep my head warm while allowing the sweat on my forehead to dissipate in the cold. On Amazon of course I saw these and got them instead. I purchased the grey ones and they look really good/neutral.
When I first opened them I was a little disappointed cause they wouldn't stay on my ears while first trying them out. Turns out that there's instructions for that and they "clip" on to the back and mostly the top of your ear, no ear lobe required, (I have an ear lobe though). There are sort of two halves to it. A soft fleece outer half and a hard plastic inner half with a half-moon hole in it, also covered with some fleece for comfort. There has been some fairly strong breezes while running but surprisingly they haven't been blown off my head, which I was worried about. Hearing isn't impaired at all wearing these. I've gone running in mid-30's to low 50 degree weather with these and they kept my ears from getting cold. Anything cooler than the 10's and these alone, w/o more headgear and you're ears may get cold but I'm not sure. After wearing them for more than an hour your ears feel fine until you take them off and then I notice my ear top may be a bit sore but it's goes away quickly. I haven't worn them for more than 2 hours.
I probably would recommend these only for light winter duty (running, walking, hanging out) vs heavy duty (construction work, skiing, sledding) cause they may fall off and get lost without having some sort of hat or head-band over them to keep them on.
Best Deals for Fleece Ear Mitts Bandless Ear Muffs 100g ThinsulateTM Insulation
I first saw someone wear these ear mitts while training for a half marathon last winter. My ears would get so cold they would ache. I'd wear a beanie, but then my head would get too hot. When I saw these ear mitts run past me, I knew I had found a solution to my dilemma. When they finally showed up, I was so excited. They are easy to put on once you get the hang of it and they actually stay on pretty well while running. I started using them for very early morning runs and my ears never ached again. And they are adorable too. Can't go wrong.
Honest reviews on Fleece Ear Mitts Bandless Ear Muffs 100g ThinsulateTM Insulation
I got these as something I can take with me in the car or when traveling, so when it's colder than expected and I wish I'd brought a hat, I can take care of the most urgent need, the ears. They go on and off fine, seem pretty secure, and are cozy. The main concern is that because they take up so desirably little space, it's easier to lose one or both of them than it is to lose a hat. My wife thinks they a mildly silly looking, but hey, they work and they are convenient, I recommend them.

I like these ear muffs very much. I had Ear Pops in the past, but they did not have any insulation so the wind could blow through the thin material when biking at 20 MPH and chill my ears. These new ones have a protective layer at the center and keep my ears warm even when biking at 25 degrees Fahrenheit.
