Please give them a few days to break in, they conform to your feet by then, but are quite hard in the beginning. You have to use the "slot" and part the the sleeve that fits over the headset is longer than the other. We?ve learned that it?s so much more economical to spend more up front for shoes that will last longer, look better longer, and ultimately be better for my kids? feet. All done, and fits three bikes (one carbon and two metal) that can all be removed separately with ease. This one is a sturdy, braided cord and looks like it will last me much longer. I bought these as a cheap alternative to use with my Oculus Quest so friends wouldn?t sweat on my better, single cord, over ear headphones. Wow is all that I can say. All that being said, I like the slippers, so will exchange. I am so glad I finally splurged and bought these. 1, but that definitely seems to make a difference in terms of range.
