This item has a handle that bends, so it won't fall off even when you're working with your head down. I don't have a job that requires me to work with my head down, so I don't use it very often. I've used it on and off for about six months. After that, I stored it in a glasses case. The color is black. The frame has a soft, matte texture that's gentle on the ears. The case is in good condition because I haven't carried it around. I'll send it with the prescription lenses still in place, as I'm worried about scratching the frame if I remove them. Instant purchase without comments is welcome! Thank you.
