I also didnt want to spend a lot of money on them. Its driving me insane due to it happening during the game. Suaves y calientitas. Merrell always feel comfortable. The microphone is a pleasant surprise! It doesn’t come with any addition controllers to control the arm and initially i thought this would be an issue but it’s not. A shoe stretcher or maybe just working it out over time? Not sure right now, it’s a little uncomfortable. This can be taken care of by using a little bit of wood glue. I record in a lot of outdoor noisy situations so its useful, but I wouldnt use this for quiet indoor recordings. If you dont like the loose fit, you may want to get one size under your show size.
