I wear them mostly when gardening/housework. Easy to put on, easy to take off. No need to bend down to take off dirty/dirty shoes. The downside is that they need a better insole as the sole doesn't have very good cushioning so my feet get tired when walking on hard surfaces. If worn regularly, they will last for several years. which is very good. I also have a pair for travel - easy to remove for safety and they look halfway decent.
