We are going to keep them but wanted to let potential buyers know that a velcro strap may not be included on the shoe (in case you are purchasing them for that reason). I plan to buy another for coats! The cable works really well and the woven mesh is a lot more durable than the original plastic/rubber coated wires. And it will be soooooooo worth it! My friend used this cable to replace chat cable on his old astros a40. Great quality will be trying this weekend Deciding against downloading iTunes, I tried this on another Windows PC, with the same disappointing result. Smells great for the 15 minutes that it lasts. Additionally, they were comfortable and I thought the heel was a good height for casual shoes. Very stylish and well-made, too.
