I was worried initially that they would become loose, but thats not the case either. I have had the shoes for 2. I would never recommend a product which was not good. He added some wood conditioning (like what we use on our cutting boards) to bring out the natural wood color. Admittedly, its a little tougher to pull the bands over the 4 corners due to my popsocket pushing the phone out an extra half a centimeter, but once you pull those 4 rubber straps over the corners, its incredibly sturdy. If I do say so myself. After just a couple hours of wearing them I had pain on the top of my foot. This pair totally died after about 3 months. L?un des écouteurs ne fonctionne plus (gauche) au bout de quelques temps( le dernier 1 mois). This wallet really protects your credit cards.
