Thanks. Do you get warm ears with the clouds?

With the leather ones, I feel like they do after an hour or two even though I prefer leather earcups. They do come with velour earcups which I don't like as much but will make it much more breathable.

 

Leather: More sound isolation, better base response, can get a little stuffy

 

Velour: Less isolation, less base response which some may like, much more airy as of comfort and won't get hot, (velour could be good too if you want to listen to the people around you or hear door bells because of less sound isolation which some may or may not like.)

 

Both leather and velour come with the HyperX Cloud 1/2.
