I used to have the Nike sandals with the soft thong which is what I thought I was buying (thats my fault for no paying close enough attention). I found that I preferred the smaller of the two. The cable has a right-angle 3. The triggers that can be pressed by straightening your fingers are something I wished for on a mouse since the 90s, when I was cutting my teeth on Doom and Quake. BUT they dont completely block out all noise/sound. I was worried about being sturdy once on the wall to hold up 4-5 bottles but used the plastic insert in wall and it?s very sturdy. But once you do, you probably wont find another shoe as supportive and comfortable! You will absolutely love these in a half size smaller. Little dissapoited with distances between one tower and the other. The arch support on this really does add to that cushion.
