It was not like this that when I initially put it on. They keep your feet relaxed and I did not feel too tired after many hours of standing on my feet. Sizing can be confusing. Love my Ugg slippers We both have small ear canals so getting buds to fit comfortably to wear for long periods is pretty tricky, but these manage it. Im nearly convinced that the 24 hour battery life with ANC is a conservative estimate that the company puts out to be on the safe side. Love these UGGS I ordered size 7 would advise to go 1/2 size up. The recent version uses straps that rubs against your bigger toe. The only improvements that I would offer are to make them waterproof. I have to my cost, tried every kind of proprietary shampoo and conditioner and even herbal treatments including Nettle and Goats Milk, all without success.
