So when Im gaming and my daughter is yelling in her room you can kinda hear it. 5 Sterne. Unfortunately for me, it means i dont notice when it is no longer in my ear. This shoe was just weird! Only real con is that they have a little chemical new shoe smell, but its not bad at all. They do take some breaking in for me but having had Birks before, I know its worth it. Fit and finish is perfect and wow what a price ! I ordered a size for my 2yo and 6yo. Très bien, a condition de suivre mes conseils qui ne sont pas inclus avec: nettoyer les semelles & légèrement ponçer avec du papier de verre pour que la surface soir bien propre & coller le patin (qui est autocollant) & surtout laisser une nuit ou journée sans se servir des chaussures pour que la colle se polymérise bien. The quality has clearly deteriorated and the materials are absolutely not the same.
