It makes them more comfortable for long periods. i use it on my face and body! I managed to hit a stud on rear wheel and pedal holder, front wheel is using beefy sheetrock anchors that came with a tv wall mount. Our daughter loves these boots, she says they are not clunky and her feet stay warm! Really easy to connect to phone. Cushion is decent and I havent noticed much friction wear from my hard foot skin (that really needs softening). I would have given 4 stars if I had gotten what I thought I was buying and there were less imperfections in the wood, but this was pretty cheaply priced so def at least 3 stars for the price paid. For someone like me, who has a lot of pants and shirts, this can be a lifesaver. My girls love new gadgets for their bikes; bell, bags on handle bars, etc. I am fond of gaming, and I strongly believe that a gaming headset is a Must-have for gamers like me.
