But, so far so good. When i first got the boot, they were snug across the forefoot, but not painful. It?s noticeably quieter, but something like a loud TV in the other room will still be bothersome. Normally, my earbuds will last quite awhile, but these have lost sound in the left channel in less than 6 weeks. As per some other reviews, these are a tighter fit than my Keen Newport H2 pair. And no back button for sync. I?m a ladies size 10 with a wide foot and I got the size Large (9-10), the fit is perfect! The videos are even better. Meines Erachtens ist diese immer subjektiv, da das Hörempfinden von verschiedensten Parametern abhängt. WHEN I FIRST TEST THEM OUT MUTE WORK.
