Highly recommend definitely worth the $ I do wish they could hold more at once. Its too bad that nice shoes are not designed for real feet anymore. I wasnt sure about the strap around the toe but I dont mind it. The reason was simple; in spite of the great reviews, I hated the look of the the buds themselves. Eigentlich hat der Etymotic nur einen Nachteil. Parfait pour gaming So I ordered these since they are cheaper even with international shipping and V. Slightly big but I don?t mind, I can share with my sister if I have to. Perfect addition for some organization.
