So the earrings are the perfect size if you are looking for hoops that aren't too big or small. They are very sturdy and I like that the latch doesn't have room to move because it's very easy to lose one and not know until it's too late to find. These are said to be stainless steel, but in the past I've purchased stainless steel that didn't make me itch. On the other hand I do have extremely sensitive skin. Overall I like them,but probably can't wear them an entire day.
