Dries super quick. The finish is a matte black and every time you bump your shoe on anything it?s going to leave a scuff mark. Great sandal for the price. I have a G cup and this shirt hem still reached down far enough at the bottom which was really nice. you must have original akg to compare. It takes several attempts using various methods to pair the transmitter and the earbuds. But Taotronics have been good to me on multiple earbud purchases, so its better than a unknown brand. The shoes were much more lightweight than I expected. I have gone through like 6 different pairs of buds trying to find a pair with that super boosted bass in less than six months. Overall, we are very pleased with the rack and it was easy to install.
