The padding is quite this but has nice give to it to conform to your head. Sure its a bit wider than my G502 but just doesnt feel right, the hump is maybe set too far forward and not actually in the palm area where it should be. I am new to Birkenstocks. They are so soft and stay on your feet. That was frustrating and I had to have Amazon ship me a whole new one. I love all my Crocs sandals! The clamp pressure is also a bit more than average but this was not an issue due to the soft, replaceable, ear pads. Its been 5 weeks and both support bars have snapped off and this entire unit is rendered useless! ive owned many computer mouses through the decades. Not my thing, though, so in the bin it goes.
