Absolutely not.

What makes you say that?

Absolutely not. If you must buy them then never leave the house with them. Horrible reputation. You will be clowned

My wife loves them.

I have the Wool Runner Mizzles (high tops). They're comfy, warm, and water-repellant which is nice for rain / light snow. I'm not sure if it's something you care about, but since it's this bowl I'll add that they're not quite as popular/stylish as they were on release.

I have a pair of the like classic ones that I wear pretty much all the time. In fact I’ve worn them down to the point that I need a new pair soon.

Love wearing them on fly days. Very comfortable

Love allbirds. FWIW, On Clouds seem to be the new trendy running show atm

I considered All Birds, but ultimately got On Clouds. Still on the way. I’m sure both are good

like

My partner and I own an embarrassing number of Allbirds -- almost every style at this point. They're one of the more legit "tech bro" brands to actually deliver on quality and comfort (and their sustainability efforts are... better than most even if only half of it is true).

For a comfy sneaker or slip-on to wear around for errands and travel and just to have as a good throw-on, they're great. Don't run in the runners, they're NOT designed for performance. Mizzles are decently water resistant. The classic wool versions are my favorite, super comfy and they wear pretty well.

like

Worn without socks on a moderate day, yes (wool is naturally moisture-wicking). But I'd probably stick with the bamboo for your location, they're lightweight and breathable. And still comfortable.

I love mine for a casual throw on shoe and they’re water proof which is great

They are disgusting. Please do not buy them

👎👎

I have a pair that I never use because I don’t think they’re all that great

They are amazing. I have the Tree Dashers and I love them. I wear them for any activity

I love them, have multiple styles, and do not care if they’re not considered stylish because they are comfy AF.

Game changer! I love my all birds and refuse to wear anything else

Hi fishes, please help me.

I am working as a mobile application developer at a small company. My CTC is 2.75LPA. I have around 1 year of experience. In my city, opportunities are very less. I am fairly skilled and competent in my field. In my company I do the same work as that of ~3+ year experienced developers. But I only have basic knowledge of DSA.

How can I improve my career?
When should I switch?

Thanks in advance!!
