" ... Product came broken and with only one silcone valve when it should have two! ... "
" ... The quality is cheap, the material probably even cheaper, and it's not enjoyable to wear while working out. ... "
" ... Straps not secure enough ... "

" ... Only drawback is when I'm really rolling the housing for the silicone breathing pieces can come loose and I have to stop and reset the piece. ... "
