It is certainly shorter than eye-level, which I would prefer for 360 shots. Having misplaced one and wanting to move it over, I tried to remove it following the instructions. The chest strap is different material from the lower strap and doesnt stay put. They got back to me through amazon, telling me that I need to go through their support system on their app, which I had already done multiple times. You can easily distinguish every strummed note. so much so I ordered a pair for my Cousin as a gift. We did have a battery missing, which limited the time we could play, but this company is awesome and quick to rectify the situation. If you have wide feet, and you are thinking about sizing down a whole size, I highly highly recommend trying them on in person if at all possible for you. I like how they clamp and tighten very well. I ordered the dark gray.
