Ill come back and give it a fifth star if the vinyl coating turns out to be more durable, too. They run true to size I wear a size 8 and I ordered a size 8 and they fit perfectly. bass) I am buying these to replace the exact same pair that I had for 5 years before the strap lifted out of the back, even then it had two securing points on each side so it didnt leave me shoeless when it broke. I use them as casual shoes with shorts and jeans. This is important because you do lose the extreme base that this speaker is famous for, but you get a richer overall sound in my opinion. Do the math on this before buying! So, to begin, the headphones are possibly the worst Ive ever had. I see in the product description that this YardStash XXL cover has a two-year guarantee, so Ill definitely be holding them to that! So, if I would change anything it would be to include self tapping screws.
