After about 20 wears the toe area inside wore out. Probably the reason why, as I write there are several pairs available from Amazon Warehouse. The beads are very small. I have a small Kate Spade crossbody I use, I clipped the case to my purse while I went shopping & the case caused the top to open itself, causing the airpods to disconnect from my phone repeatedly! They are light. I even had an extra two shelves left over (only needed eight for my purpose) to use for my bathroom for small items. Hi I use these slips for showering in. My only issue, and this is because of my lack of feeling, is when walking barefoot, these slip off sometimes. I still have mine but Ive had to be very careful with them. I have had no issues with my iPhone not liking this charger like it has with other brands.
