For me, the only downside is that the front door of it is the only truly clear piece. ) Durand fits smaller, its material is harder meaning it is very stiff. And its a pain in the neck to keep returning junk items that dont work, anyway), I didnt want to make the same mistake when looking for a Y-split cable. The strap system is a pain to use as well especially when installing on the roof of a 4wd suv. As a result, I have extreme swelling / water retention in my feet. I might try to buy insoles for these shoes. The shoes in my picture are mens size 11-12, with some high-tops, so dont worry about them not fitting on the rack. Wouldnt recommend if youre looking to protect headphones from gym sweat etc. perfect snug fit, no glue. On top of all this, I think it looks nice too.
