We waited 2mnths to review so she had a chance to really use these and see how they worked, and we told her wed return them if needed, but she is happy with them. I work at a warehouse, its really loud but I can listen to my coworkers and to whatever it is Im playing, at the same time no problem. They also come with the option to wear with the ankle strap or without. I wear an 8 and ordered a medium. I was looking for a specific earphone size, and this was perfect. This dress was everything I hoped for! The station is easy to put together but does the claim that it can hold up to 400lbs is obviously false. I was up on a hill that allowed me to survey quite a bit of the area around me and the altitude may have helped me. But that pesky unreliable clip/carabiner gave me issues and ultimately failed and fell off. I love how durable they are and how easy they are to clean.
