But to be fair that would be expecting too much from a pair of sandals. First off, I like the athleisure look of the shoe and I opted for the grey/blue/yellow but thats all personal preference. Podcasts and music are clear and precise. Finally dual device Bluetooth pairing means you can get calls while listening to content on your laptop or desktop. Can?t wait to try it out camping. Ordered the size I normally wear but if you wear a 9. They have really helped me with my aching feet problem. Im impressed with these ear buds and charging case. I wasted $30. Thought they were the most uncomfortable things I?d ever put on!
