I dont see the side tone option in a lot of headsets in this price range so fair trade off of value and features. Love the way it feels but it is a bit snug on my foot, I am flat footed. Got these as part of my wifes Valentines Day gifts. I aired it out overnight and it was gone. I cant believe how good this mouse is for the 22 dollars I spent on it. For the 20 cubicle one, each cubby costs around $5, which is a comparable price to buying storage containers that stack up--but this looks better and allows easier access to contents. I?ve only had it on for about 20 minutes this morning. HOWEVER, there is a little metal collar on the connecting cable that can be easily adjusted to increase the tension on the cable, which then allows it to operate properly. I have bought this type of shoe, several times because they were super soft leather and comfortable. So, too many variables to know what was going on.
