I would have put waistline darts in (my usual fix), but these were also too long for me. They have a different tread on the bottoms and the rubber part that goes over your foot dont say Hurley on them. The controls are a bit awkwardly placed, but they do stay put on my desk and they do always function. "go for it and buy". As such, I tried to return them, and although the seller was willing to give me a refund -- they are from a secondary seller and you must pay for return postage. Many of the joints have a lot of metal showing, who knows is this is going to rust on me in the long run or not. I need arch support and these baby’s have it! Itll make your listening experience far more enjoyable. They are easy to slip on and off, but no slipping out of my shoe while I’m walking! After a few days of wear, the hard footbed begins to soften a bit and it will take on the shape of your foot while providing excellent support.
