The shoe was immediately comfortable and was worn for both t-ball practice/games and on the trails. Trails were wet with leaves and mud, small creek crossings, roots, rocks, wet wooden stairs, and this shoe handled it all with no issues. Note: They're not waterproof so toes got wet, but that wasn't a surprise. I really like their profile, they are comfortable on all surfaces and they grip very well. No wear or defects noted.
