They were just as comfortable to wear as my dedicated hiking boots. The front of the shoe definitely wears more than the rest of the shoe, but that is to be expected with a toddler. This thing is built tough and I am happy with sound quality. I will say that the MX1000 Controls like mute/call/volumes are good and works as advertised. Its ridiculous how small these shoes run. I read the review before my purchase, and there are a lot of people complaining that it doesn’t fit their ears, and its noise cancellation sucks. I bought the two bike rack to mount into my truck bed so i can lock the bikes down to go into a store or whatever. Y ahora tengo dos desconchones en las paredes de pena. I just wanted a really comfortable and pretty sneaker to reward myself for going to the gym!
