At first i thought if was coming unsewn but it is ripping away from the rubber back. I was looking for a perfect ear buds for jogging and am very happy with this purchase. Buy them, but for yourself. Anything new is gonna either cost way more, or be way not as good. Nothing special and at a very cheap price. Ive seen some reviews where people were uncomfortable with the sheerness, but its perfect for me. Vi posso racontare adesso che esperienza ho avuto e sto avendi a riascoltarle: riesci a percepire da dove il suono provviene, questo perché hanno dei driver molto grandi e dinamici. - it is heavy and very sturdyCons:-as many other reviewer‘s noted with their experiences, mine came a bit damaged, too. They have been on my washer and dryer for a few months now and no issues, would buy again and recommend to family and friends. Worse than with the store bought adult underwear.
