5" of the bottom front is not as tight as I would like. I ended up not wearing them for my intended event because I was afraid my feet would hurt with too much standing. ---- Near the center and within 5-10 degrees each side, you can feel the teeth of the gears. I am a size 7 and these fit JUST perfect. these earbuds very much so deliver on most promises and are very much worth the purchase. I have at least 12 pairs of shoes/slippers on it as well! This one is good, the fabric is good to protect from dust in the long run I also like how it makes it more square look than the watch itself. I was prepared to have a rack installed at the dealer, and pay whatever upcharge that would incur just to avoid the hassle of doing it myself. You cant tell that from the photos on the web site, it has to do with the paint on the crossbars, the finish on the edges, etc.
