I am worried about the velcro closure because I have not had good luck with those staying closed over time. Has anyone had a pair for a while?

No problem at all with the velco. Occasionally, thread will get stuck in the velcro and I will pull out the fuzz. I throw mine in the washer or wash by hand often and they are great! I wear them from the garden and yard (hence the frequent washing) and I wear them to work...which is business casual. Love these shoes.

I bought them for my special lady friend and she has had them for 4 months and logged around 40 miles in them including streets and hiking on a rocky trail, and the velcro remains in tact.

I haven't had any problems with the velcro coming off. If anything I have a difficult time getting the pads to come off because they stick so well.

They are attacked by Velcro. So far I have had no problem with them staying on.

I haven't had that issue. I've worn them for 3 hour runs. Now the part that touches the top of the ear to wrap around the back get just a tad tender, but I have a feeling that is impacted by my winter hat pushing on it. Not at all a deal breaker for me. Overall, they are a great buy!

I have no problems with them coming out at all! I've worn them walking, running and to the gym and they stay in! Best pair of bluetooth headphones I've ever had! They sound really great too! Got a pair of the bluetooth jabra rox and they were pure crap compared to these! Before these I wore the wired BOSE mie2i, and these have the same type earbuds, and I've never had a problem with those falling out either! Good luck

I've had mine for a long time and the same thing happened. What I did is to get a couple of large back to back velcro pieces and it seems to stay. You can also get some heavy duty super strength glue to hold the bottom velcro piece just make sure it isn't flammable. Regardless of the problem with the gooey velcro fall offs this toastie tush has saved my tush from freezing many mornings, lol. Good Luck

My husband has the same problem - I just retighten them every couple of walks. These walks are not anything as active as hiking, but he still has problems, usually only on one side. Sorry I have no good answer for you.

they actually stay on quite well which i didn't think they would with the little rubber thing that goes in the ear. be careful with those though and keep the extras they send you because at some point they will fall off (like in a gym bag or taking them off).

I haven't noticed them being uncomfortable, but I have not had them very long and have not had the opportunity to use them for a long stint. They a little tight. Maybe that is what the negative reviews are speaking about.

I had no problem with the velcro, it was actually pretty secure, but I only used it about 10 x daily. I think it would last from my experience.

I haven't had any problems. If you plan on a lot of on and off wear with abrubt tossing down then I wouldn't buy them. They have swivel fold ear pieces that may be a problem for someone that continuously takes them on and off or sets them in a place not safe from being squashed, like a couch.

Haven't experienced any problems with mine, maybe you've been unlucky with a faulty pair.I am currently waiting for a new pair I've bought.Cheers

So sorry, I wish I could help, but I didn't have that issue. Mine stayed on very snug. It didn't help much, but it did stay on tightly...under my tights and over top of them as well sometimes.

I haven't had that issue, they're constructed from aluminum & shouldn't break! did you try adjusting them out for a more comfortable fit? but yes, if they're too tight they will leave an impression. Then I did have an issue with one of the cords shorting out on me & Amazon had no problem replacing not only the cord, but the entire order!!!

I've had mine about a year now, I just simply pull the velcro straps tighter, the upper and the one close to the knee, is most important. Not to tight

My husband and I both have a pair and they are easy, but I don't now if you keep taking them on and off a lot if they might stretch at the openings.I would give them a try

I got mine 6 weeks ago, last week the Velcro started losing its stickiness. I tried a fabric shaver but with no luck. Keep in mind, I have large legs and strap the strap to the front of the braces because of that; if they fit around my legs as proper braces for my legs would, I am sure the Velcro would be holding up nicely as it seems high quality. Short answer: if these are appropriate for your leg size, they will be fine; if not, you my want to find more appropriate ones
