Back when phones had 3.5mm jacks, Koss Porta Pros were my daily commute headphones. They always broke after getting beat up in my bag after a year or 2, but always got a replacement after sending them in with an 11 dollar check. Was 11 bucks the real shipping cost? Probably not, but very cheap for a new pair of head phones.

Same here! The PortaPros were amazing and one of the first headphones ever recommended to me from the internet. I had them replaced at least once for the cost of shipping.

I’ve got a pair in a box with deteriorates pads and a broken band.

I ought to send them off. Porta pros were like $45 last time I checked.

Man, I love Portapros but even with the warranty I have a hard time calling them buyitforlife. I've been through like 4 in the past 2 years.
