It was a nightmare. There was no specific amount mentioned. The first thing I (and my observant hubby bless his soul) noticed was the back of the shoe bulged in a weird way and looks unnatttractive. it’s got a nice Velcro strap to keep the cord wrapped up, and I left it as is, so it sits nicely beneath the outlet. It turned out to be user error - I was not using the best-suited Bone Collection mount for a road bike. This company makes a great product at a good price and Amazon typically has a very good price on their products in my experience. very sturdy they looked great on easy to walk in great arch support. Headphones feel like new again. Why on earth would they change something that was working? Maybe it works better for white hair but this product is aimed at black hair. I normally take a size 7 1/2, these are a size 7, but seem to fit more like a large 7 1/2.
