There is virtually no padding (some reviews said otherwise, but I am not impressed). Im thrilled with this hat. Also comes with 3 sizes of earbud tips. My decision was absolutely right - this is very good headset for work! You can control volume, skip songs, pause/play. Maybe over months of use they dont hold up? Only time will tell. I?m so embarrassed-I love them. After a few such incidents, I gave up and took the mount off. Since my 16month old grandson has been pulling everything off his feet, I thought the slipper sock might be better. I found this book so helpful on the sometimes confusing subject of Gods will.
