You must have a problem with this one, the real earmuffs are not so smooth, and the real earmuffs are sewn in three layers. Outside a circle, the center to the ear a circle, inside a circle. The top is the sewing mouth. Very soft and slow to rebound when pinched in. You can compare it to the ad picture. Also, I've never seen a big bun with red thread. It's all black thread. I bought the bluetooth version and the wired version is the same as the bluetooth version. And there's no way the earcups aren't touching when the really big buns are placed. Tuned to any position it is touching.
