Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.
Comfort Fit
50/100
The review identifies the Old Fashioned as an on-ear design but does not discuss clamp, pad comfort, weight distribution, or long-session wear. Comfort and fit are not yet documented.
Build Quality
53/100
Pragmatic Audio calls it a nice retro-design on-ear headphone, comparing its visual concept to classic Koss models such as the Porta Pro and KPH30i. The review does not provide direct information on materials, durability, mechanisms, or long-term construction quality.
Features Usability
50/100
The available review does not cover cable arrangement, accessories, replaceable parts, storage, or other ownership features. Practical usability is largely undocumented.
Value for Money

At $24.99, the Old Fashioned sits in an inexpensive on-ear headphone segment. None of the available review material directly assesses whether it outperforms similarly priced alternatives or justifies its asking price.
