I have a real large head and am worried that these may break over time. Will that be an issue with these?

I don't think with them being constructed the way they are from metal that there is much worry of that. My biggest problem was my having a big head also and I could not wear them long. They can be stretched by putting an object between the cups and letting it spread over time. Also by pointing a hair dryer at the head band this will speed it up. I personally just gave them to my wife because she loved them and bought a pair of Beyerdynamic's.

If they can fit my fat head, you will be all set. I haven't had any clamping force issues.
1332277
I noticed the other person's response to your question talked about clamping pressure. These are some what heavy but very comfortable. The pads are soft too. Bottom line, these "smoke" any headphone I own under $300 in quality of construction. Sennheiser and AKG could learn something from these folks.

Don't worry, these headphones will fit any human head without problem :)I think, closed headphones must sit tight.

I have 23 pair of headphones and these are made better than 20 of my others. While I can't guarantee anything, I think when you order them and get them home, you will see they are built like a tank. I don't know what your budget is, but I got a pair of Velodyne vTrue headphones that have superior build quality, much better sound signature and were only $135 new online. You have to search hard to find that price, but it is out there. Also, to tell you how good California Headphone customer service is, they sent me a free leather carrying case right after I got these because my dog ate the first one.

Not a chance, these headphones are some of the sturdiest I've ever handled. Your head would have to be considerably larger than average to damage these. However, since your head is somewhat large you may experience some discomfort with these.

Use mine daily. No issues, they are quite flexible and you will know the limits. Only way you're breaking them is if you REALLY stretch them to put them on your head.

I believe that the response question has already been answered. I have a relatively small head, but I find these to be extremely comfortable for me. I can wear them for extended periods with no problem.

I guess I concur with the others. Carefully snipping the thread would be an option. However, I would advise against doubling the clips. As a long time clip in wearer, it will be uncomfortable on your head and they probably would not be very secure.

Out of both my pairs, I've never had a problem with them, but I wouldn't just go throwing them around or sitting on them. I've taken them places in backpacks before though and stuff like that and never had a pair break.

They will fit ANY human I have ever met. I have a very large head (7 3/4) and there is plenty of room for much bigger heads. Should not be a problem!

I have a big head and they are still pretty big on my head. But I really recommend these.

If you just tilt your head you will probably be OK. If your like me at the gym, and you do a lot of quick movements, they won't stay on. I don't wear mine at the gym just for that reason. They do have a high quality sound though.

Yes! I've had mine for over a year. Just don't drop them or they will break..
543316
Absolutely! They are very strong. Try to match the curve of the mount the best you can to the helmet for maximum adhesion.

Yes, I recommend them for you. First off, they're adjustable. And second....your head's the perfect size. Think positive and enjoy the great sound from these headsets.

I have mine at nearly the maximum setting at most times.. my head is medium-large I would say. So no, your head size should be fine. If you had a big head I would stay away from these though.
2113559
Yes, they will. Even a larger headed child can wear them. My grand daughter wears them every time they all get together and play Nerf gun games and she has a larger than average sized head. They keep her eyes safe and she loves them. They are the coolest, in her opinion.

I would say most likely. They are adjustable. I have a large head and I pull the lengtheners out about half way.

I think these are designed to be "one size fits all" like most non-prescription glasses. My head is big, and they fit me fine. I can wear them over my regular glasses, so based on that, I think they might be too large for you.

I have used them on 10 international flights so far and haven't experienced it yet. My head is average size so maybe it's more of an issue on stress from larger heads. For the price they've been fine

They are not too thick or too thin. If you can slip your fingers flat on your ears after putting on the helmet then you wont have any problems with these headphones.
