In This case the item came in a very sealed, brand new feeling like when you open your iPhone for the first time with all the authentication that you can ask for. This is a normal problem I have with shoes like this. I can hear them fine, but they say I sound like I am underwater. I love these and plan to order more colors, you can?t beat amazons prices, I got the black and white pair for $19 and they?re $39. I am very disappointed as I initially thought I had found a product that was comfortable and performed well. Instagram does do some to remove fake followers and bots but they?re barely scratching the surface. So, 4 stars, missed out on the 5th for not having some sort of roller for the drawers. It can easily fit any side of room corner or at the side of hallway. Time will tell, though at this price I?d like a slightly higher build quality. The straps on these are a harder rubber and the back edge sort digs into my skin a bit, not terrible but not good.
