The touch controls work great for volume and skip but not so well for play/pause. I also want something that feels good to wear, and this feels amazing. Overall I am pleased with the performance for the price. It should be noted I did NOT contact the seller. I think that having the entire 6 bikes altogether would have been too tight, but spacing each section to separate joists worked well so far. Look even nicer than picture, comfortable absolutely delighted Im not sure if this was due to the carrier, warehousing, or packing from the manufacturer but the item was damaged. Intermittent between buds and when listening to music and audio books and dropped when on calls. I will definitely buy again if I needed too. Anything less than deep lug hikers will work.
