I sent them a picture and description within the hour. Definitely nothing like a corset or back support. I then had to go to a hardware store to source a replacement screw. I feel really lucky to have picked these for my first nice pair, because the material they are made out of is so comfortable, I wear these more than my tennis shoes now! Leg length is easily adjusted with allen screws but the stock length turned out to be perfect for my bike. So far in the house these are perfectly respectable and if you can get them for £40, brilliant. Just love them they dont slip out at gum time and active time and Im totally in love with them will surely buy them again although it took Soo long to get them here . Well built sturdy bike rack. Still though, the mute button doesnt work, which seems to be a common fault amongst others who purchased this product. One thing I need to say is that at the point of writing this is that I cant comment on the battery life, however I cant get too excited about this as it isnt a big deal in charging them when required - go get a set, you wont be disappointedUpdate : I have had these for a while now and still very impressed, from doing a quick charge when I got the XR800s I got over 7 hours out of them before the nice lady told me the battery was getting low, cant complain about
