- Advice/Tips
- they are made of leather, so your skin might get sweaty, mine have not but I hear they can, I always have foot powder on so maybe that is why I have no trouble with that,. but for me they look better than the plastic ones. and with already being in a wheelchair and everything else, looks can be nice for your sprits.
- Cost
