I ordered these as a replacement for another pair of nautica slides. I bought some floating shelves and added these to the bottom of them. Ive dont know how, but Ive rarely had this issue with other headphones. Wish I could afford more! The leather of the shoe feels nice though, but the inside construction isn?t as nice as a Bloch slipper. Its twice as loud as my old brandless speaker. Fit TTS and wear well He loves Champion gear. I will update in a few months when I see how well these last. I?m sure some clothing dye could fix that.
