I've used both Flex-rides and EZ-Rides. The flex rides were great for
awhile, but they flexed too much and caused my knees to ache. The EZ rides
are far more comfortable and supportive for me :). Plus, they come in
colors and I have a purple pair, they are great. I haven't any experience
with Cloud Stirrups. Also, with the EZ rides I can easily get my hiking
boots in and out, with the flex-rides my feet often got wedged in the
stirrups and I couldn't get them out!
Happy Trails,
