"I bought these last summer and used them for biking, dog walking, general outdoor use. They are light but supportive, very comfortable. I like them so much I bought a second pair a few weeks ago. I bought the first pair in-store and decided to get 1/2 size larger than normal, and that has been perfect. Now I have the roughed up pair, and the new pair for a nicer look. I did change the laces to black, though, these white ones look silly."
