For a clean, almost neutral sound, these could fit the bill. I have this paired up with a Scarlette 2i4, AT2035 for vocals, and use this for the guitar. We just got the sandals and they fit like a size 10 1/2 or 11. And as much as it annoys me, what I cant accept is the fact that I get SHOCKED in my ears every time I have a blanket on my lap, or one of my cats leaves my lap. I recommend saving these in case you ever remove the cross bars. They fit snug in the ear even when I run on the treadmill and not once has it feel out nor did it make me feel like they would. 3) wireless charging is not my thing so it does not bother me at all not having the feature. Love how it is activated with the sensor. The Adidas logo has already rubbed off and dont think about getting them wet. I never tried the famous Shimano open toed SPD sandals (which are back in 2020).
