The one complaint that I have is that the velvet is a bit delicate. I bought about 15 different pairs of shoes for my daughters wedding. It?s a good length so you can still use your phone while its charging. I can understand why as they aren?t fully fitted to your ear so it would be difficult to block out all sound when it?s not enclosing your ears like over the head ones. However, the pair we received one sandals was way tighter then the other to that point that I could barely put it on my kid. In fact I like them so much I ordered a pair in black. Crocs are usually made better so I?m not sure if we received a faulty pair. I LOVE THESE CROCS! Speaker is small in size but sounds very good. If you have an iphone 12 or iphone pro max, Airpods pro you betta have this item.
