The OE2i and OE2 is an "ON EAR" set of headphones. In fact, the OE stands for ON EAR. The other models we have, the AE2 and AE2i are an Around the Ear (AE) model.

Not over the head but over the ear. I haven't used it in the gym yet but I think it will do ok.

yes, they are over the ear, not on-the ear type. The headband is stretchable and may can meet different people's head tastes.

Partially, depends on your ears and head. A big issue is Amazon listing these as "over ear" when they are Supra-aural (On ear).

Yes, and they are light and comfortable to wear, however, I do not think that they are intended for this type of activity and I suspect that you will not enjoy wearing them as they are obviously an over the ear design. You will be amazed at how much control they give you to either cancel noise or increase your hearing. I have no doubt they will protect your hearing, as to whether they are a fashion statement...in the eye of the beholder.

Yes they are over the ear and very comfortable. I got them for my husband and he falls asleep with them on.

Over the ear. Same as MDR1R phones except they have noise cancellation circuitry which works very well when turned on.

They're an on ear size. They're by far the most uncomfortable pair of headphones I've ever worn but also some of the best I've heard. I had some over ear turtle beach cushions I wasn't using so I replaced the old ones with those and now they're comfortable.

These are over the ear. They cover my GF ears great, which means that the majority of the time she can't hear. They are decently thick so your ears should not even touch.

The JVC are on-ear headphones, but with lots of padding. They do not cover or enclose the ear, which is my definition of over the ear headphones.

They sit on the ear, not around it. The cushions are soft. If you have sensitive ears and hard spectacles, you will notice on-the-ear headphones.

These go "on" the ear, but they cover and end up being "over" the ear. These are not like ear buds, so it's hard to describe how they are both on and over the ear, unlike earbuds that are "over the ear" or "in the ear."

I have never tried the over ear headphones. These headphones sound great, it also has great bass. The only down side is there a little tight.

The cups are a little smaller than most headsets but they do cover the ear completely. They are over-ear.

Sorry - I do not understand the question. These are behind-the-ear units with sound tubes. They are unlike the over-the-ear electronic units. If you could please clarify: Are you talking about the behind-the-ear electronic unit? or are you talking about the tubes and plugs. If talking about the plugs, please describe the type you are looking to use.

Yup, you actually kinda have to wear these over the ear otherwise just tapping on the wiring will make it sound like a boombox. But once you wear it over the ear microphonics is neglible.
