They are nicely glittered and she wore them most of the 10 days she spent here in Florida for Christmas. The power delivery is average at 40w but as long as you?re aware of that you?ll be fine (you can always buy your own, more powerful hub). There is no foam on the sole and they are made of hard plastic. Easy to add on to my bike (now pulling a kid trailer). Nor is every Arab homely and flighty and every draft horse a stoic rock. Enter this amazing product! Super comfortable and very cute. Bright colors and fit great. It also helps with back support. Overall good!
