I have normal foots, size 6. I dont care for the white shoe strings though. They look great with bamboo accessories in my bathroom. Im slightly over a 10. Soles are honeycombed for traction or noise dampening I suppose. I did try another brand in between, after my first pair broke but didnt find the same sound quality as the ALNs. Noise-canceling? The star rating for noise canceling is not applicable to this device, its one earpiece. Audio has not dropped once. I sprayed the case down (picture 1) with Resolve carpet cleaner and scrubbed it, then I let it sit for the day (did this twice). People on the other end of the call say the voice quality is horrible.
