I wouldnt wear them too much, because they are not as durable. I will definitely buy different colors! I like these but the 9 was too short. The top of the shoe where it meets the sole runs too far back making it impossible to get your foot in the shoe all the way up. I love how long this USB charging wire is! Using these does not hinder the sound. The pain gets less and less bad with uses though. the head phones work great for me, they are about the sound quality you would expect at this price range. My head phones needed new earpieces and these fit the bill. If I rate this particular shoe, id give it 5 stars.
