Speaking of the microphone, it has pleasant detentes on the main swivel, and the arm is flexible. These are standard white socks, so even without the socks the fit seems small. Most of all, Thulins talent penning timeless melodies has me eagerly searching for more of his work and hoping his next CD release wont be too long in coming. This is very easy to install. They are so thin, I would never wear them around sock footed for fear of getting immediate holes. We had a carrier mount that came with our Chariot bike trailer, which stayed installed on my Trek bike. Although the fit was good, the box came destroyed and one of the shoes is messed up and dirty. Less than an hour later I HAD to take them off because it was rubbing the side of my foot raw. I just didnt like the heel strap personally. Looking to buy in at least one more color!
