I was expecting them to be heavy with the wood heel, but they are surprisingly light. I have been on the hunt for easy shoes to slide on and have enough support to last me day to day throughout my work day. They fit over the ear not in it and I could close the boom and put it in my pocket for when I needed it. Under $20 maybe more reasonable. I saved money buying this one on here rather than spend 80 from the ig pages. I have ZERO complaints about the performance, fit, or versatility of that headset. I am quite impressed. I wear a size 8 and the size 8 fit perfect. My only complaint is that the treble gets a bit harsh in complex pieces of music. A quick touch up with a baby wipe or damp cloth is all you need, but incase, no, WHEN they happen to stomp through mud they also hold up great in the washer (just set out to dry bc the dryer will eventually damage the adhesive- on all shoes, not just these).
