Love either way. There is probably some work to be done at manufacturing with Quality Control based on some comments, missing parts, poor fittings. This is my 2nd pair and again, minimal break in, fit like a glove and great support and comfort 9,H (Clarks) this Sandle size 9 fits perfect for both. I am so glad that they are making a come back! So I was looking for a pair of "slippers" with a thick sole. I have to say I don?t have that experience at all. I went to town with a lint brush and it still looks dirty, covered in dust and white lint that stands out on the navy fabric. I love that they are adjustable on the top which allows me to keep it on my foot snugly. Having used various brands like Sony and Creative, I have found TT to be my choice well priced and good quality earphones.
