I dont recommed traveling with it and I know others have mentioned that as well not great for that b/c its so thin when tossed around or dragged you will burn holes in it. now that its paired it seems to work pretty well. The shoes are adorable, no holes on sides , just on top (thats good), the flexible band was loose when pulled over the shoe front, so I customized and cut those off completely. I have narrow feet and these are snugger than most narrow shoes. Perfect for what we needed it for, put our weight machine on one end and use the rest of it for floor exercises, Love the fit plus the back lays down if you want a slipper. I just couldnt justify keeping a pair for that price even though they are well made and have a comfortable foot bed. They just lost that. I am sure these lights can be used for a variety of applications. It fit the weapon perfectly and functions as it should.
