These shoes keep your feet at the proper positioning for all activities. This reduces fatigue. My feet don't feel tired at the end of a long day anymore. They did with Nike Converse and even New Balance which were the best until I found Treksta. Although it might take a week or two for the shoes to contour to your feet, but once they do they are the best. The footbed seems like it is very sturdy and will last a long time, but is also flexible for running. The ice lock grip really does work as I had a chance to try them out with our record ice and snow this year in the northeast with surprising levels of grip when I should have been sliding. I have broken both my ankles and one foot and leg. No other shoe allows me the freedom of activities without pain like this shoe does. I still longboard at 45yrs old.
