The laces provide excellent stability and keep my foot from moving around. Sound quality deteriorates to the point of this not being fit for purpose. GOOD:- Noise canceling is silent without any hissing sound when activated- It comes in blue ! Aus der Packung raus meine "normale" Crocs Größe bestellt. I read a lot of reviews and was a little nervous about the quality, but I was not disappointed. With that being said, I already ordered a different style made by the same manufacturer in the hopes that not only will the sound be amazing, but that they feel/fit better and I can check off the last box for Comfort with this brand** We shall see, Stay Tuned ;) I?m really happy with this rack and it?s so nice to finally have my shoes organized! I am 55", 135 lbs, waist measures 34". You have to make sure its square once the screws are tightened. Its also handy to store footwear, be comfortably seated and put your shoes and boots on.
