I gave them a three star because I expect a $45 shoe to last longer. They are a lot softer than the cheaper brands I have bought, they stretch and compress but not to the point of being uncomfortable. Would not recommend buying these from this seller. But it look like it will. SUPER LOS TENIS, ESTAN PADRISIMOS EXCELENTE It took me a couple days to get used to it, and now I dont mind as much as I initially did. Really pleased with this case. After successfully doing the mod, I tried them again the same songs. It is a very short strap. Considering they are made by Billabong, not some no name brand, I would expect nothing less.
