I wanted to leave a review as soon as I unwrapped them and put the on the day they arrived. I was instantly impressed. I wore them around the house everyday after work and even rode my bike a little around the neighborhood.
The real test was gonna be a 4 day camp that was coming up. I wore them at camp, on my bike all over the place, down to the river to swim and walk the gravel bars, and on a long kayak trip. I cleaned them up when I got home and they look brand new.
Gripped everywhere, stayed tight and comfortable, and were super reliable. LOVE 'EM!!
