If it is, its an epic fail. The sound quality is not the best, you get what you pay for in that regard, but in terms of breakage and overall value, theyre worth your 10 bucks. Im starting to get a bunion but the medium is plenty wide enough for me . That being said the best I could give these beautiful cans is a three star due to a design flaw. Will be buying again! Very comfortable, soft and extremely flattering. I would have been completely okay with all of this but after 2 weeks the shoes are worn out. It is secure and happy. This earbuds are by far the best Because it clings to the actual buds case, its almost impossible to line up all the edges and cut outs to make it look neat.
