Jonathan Thulin is not only a great singer but an even better writer. These last seemingly forever on a single charge! I used them indoors and in the garden, mall etc. Durability:Im using to have something more secure than slides and possibly more durable. Vionics responded quickly and said since it was their error I should keep the extra pair. I wear women?s 7 usually and I ordered a 7. Comparing the sound quality to the Buds, I was pleasantly surprised! The head phones is not that good , with them on i can still hear whats going on in the room and the house ,the volume on the head phones is low and I wasted my money on them . I got a black for myself and for my wife while my girl got the cute pink and my boy got the white. Great fit, very comfortable and they look really nice.
