I was a little worried a 16.5mm hoop would look bulky, but the sculpted shape sits really nicely and the 20g post is thin enough to feel like nothing’s there. They’re my new everyday pair — light enough to wear all day without my ears getting sore.
The titanium makes a real difference – these are so light I genuinely forget I’ve got them in, and after a full day my ears don’t feel the pinch like with other hoops. That 16.5mm size hits the perfect sweet spot between subtle and noticeable.
