Sadly the 38 European size is meant for size 7 to 7 1/2. I dont have earpods so I dont know how that part works. Gave 3 of these for Christmas gifts they loved them I was pleased! Pink Floyd, the soundstage was simply amazing on the title song. The sound from the ear cups are amazing, very balanced sound range. So sparkly and beautiful. This pair of Umyogo shoes that I had never heard of with their crazy sole construction allowed me to run pain free - PAIN FREE - when running in my Aciscs resulted in almost immediate discomfort every single time I ran. they were, as expected, snug for the first few days, but they stretched out and perfectly fit now ive had them a week. True to size, I got a size 8 1/2. Looking at this, it would be nice for a little bathroom, too.
