The reasonable price still makes this a good buy even if you have to put in a little more elbow grease. I walk a lot. It took all i had to set him gently outside. The inner sock liner holds my feet snug like a supporter would. The AKG P220 is a wonderful mic, easy to install and gives its full great quality sound for a very fair price. Unfortunately about 3 weeks in the mic started fritzing. I feel like I have a pretty good idea of my chacos zvolv. Its not quite 5 star in terms of materials. Im normally a wired headphone user, as sound quality is my #1 priority. UPDATE 5/23/11 - Alright, its been about a month since I purchased these headphones and I can conclude a few things.
