Also, they feel like cardboard, and I?m not sure if my eyes are playing tricks on me, but the label in the back of the shoe even looks slightly crooked. the handles are attached well and holds a ton of stuff but its not going to hold any shape. After researching current AKG models and even other brands like Bose, again I found myself looking at purchasing the AKG brand. First, let me help clarify that the price of $40. Then it falls right back out. So that was a bit annoying. again, they are clips used to hold wiring in place. When I first looked at the item it has seems to look as if the circular tag was bigger, which is why I bought it to snap onto my pants, turns out this isnt big enough to do the job, padding is fine but I feel the image mislead me. It is thick and made of strong material and it is beautiful to look at. Great quality as well.
