My husband got these for Christmas for his crossfit workouts, but they have been so comfortable that they have become his everyday sneakers. Eight months later, they have held up wear and they are his favorite shoes in his closet. He loves that they are lightweight, and took very little time to break in. He's okay wearing them all day, to theme parks, shopping at the mall, or while outside working in the yard. Even though they are a minimalist design, he still recommends them as being a comfortable shoe for all day or exercise wear.
