They are the cheapest of the adilette slides and the materials reflect that. Maybe I have higher expectations for sketchers. Nothing super heavy. This is a great product for the value. Place your source in a pocket, bag, or on a table/desk and enjoy your music problem-free and wire-free. After the first night of wearing them for 5 hours my legs were a little sore the next day but after wearing them every night for 5 nights, the last night was a wedding with tons of dancing and standing and didnt even think about my feet ONCE! Its nice to have a little light signaling that its connected. They look great and sound even better than I imagined! Después de tanto investigar encontré un micrófono para iniciar a grabar. I have a island in my kitchen and the plug outlet is at the base.
