I wear mine everyday and love them.  They were comfortable from day one.  The adjusters work well to keep them snug but not tight.  They are easy to walk in as well.  The best part is that my kids think they look awesome.  The minute I take them off, one of them wants to walk around the house w/ them on.  Another thing, they make shifting and braking easier.  If you're used to wearing regular shoes/sneakers/boots then these will make you never want to wear anything else on your tootsies when you go riding.  Very positive feeling from them as far as helping control the bike.  Not as protective as a full boot, but the outside face of the boot has a nice reinforced plastic "rib" that extends from the sole to incorporate the venting and up to the ankle.  Get them, you won't be disappointed.   [thumbsup]

The very first day I wore them, one of the red plastic circles on the ankle came loose and fell off, which means I almost lost one of the ankle straps. I went back to the dealer and he replaced it. Now, approx. 2 months later, the circular thingy that tightens the nylon filament fell off, which means I can't loosen or tighten the filament. I called the dealer and he said he'd replace it, but by looking at it, I don't know if it's easily replaceable.

Nice boots, but maybe too many bells and whistles.

I've had 'em for a few mos and wear them at least 3-4 days a week. Very comfortable on and off the bike, very good feel for the pegs and controls. Also reasonably cool on hot days with the vents open.
I was worried about durability with the moving parts, but no problems as yet.
