It has hooks on the outside making it easy to attach the ratchet straps to tie down whatever I haul on top. The sales material claimed small but in fact same size as in original package. I was able to turn the headphones up really loud to get some audio distortion/noise but it was an extremely high, uncomfortable level of volume before I got to the point of distortion. The battery life when used in wireless mode is just so so. I ordered a pair of Sanuk yoga wedges and they are very stiff and a lot more expensive, I much prefer these :) I have been using the Goeco Active Noise Cancelling True Wireless Earbuds for many weeks, and everyday, and I still cannot understand how a Company can make a set of Plastic Earbuds, that are Lightweight, and have Active Noise Cancelling, Good Sound Quality and with a Low Price of $65. The sizing on these shoes is american that is one size up. Frankly, I expect Plantronics to do better and they have failed with this product IMHO. I want able to wear it to my function. Thats a LOT of white rope that, I hate to admit, I never hold on to from year to year :( & there have been times rope has come apart.
