The fully-retractable mic is another good idea, and the mechanism works well, enabling exact positioning with ease. As is the case with these types of design, ears do become toasty after a mammoth session, but I had little problem in keeping them on for an entire working day without undue pressure or ill-fit fatigue. A combination of the flexible band and super-soft, ear-enveloping cushions feels right, even with a pair of specs on, and you almost forget you're wearing them after a while. This is one of the most comfortable gaming headsets around. Adjustments aren't huge, mind, but you can get a really good fit easily. Rather, around the main steel section connecting the earcups there's a second, ski-google-type suspension band adjusted by moving the Velcro fastening - where the SteelSeries logo is shown above - to exactly the right spot. Unlike most, the 350g Arctis Pro doesn't use micro-adjustable sides for fine-tuning fit on your noggin. It's understated without looking cheap, with a high-quality matte finish to the steel headband and plastic, fully-articulated cups. Straight off the bat, it's clear that SteelSeries knows how to make an attractive, comfortable gaming headset.
