These look nicer than the ones I fitted years back for my wife to get used to toe straps. Even for those of us used to straps, the feeling of being able to get out easily can be reassuring. By not closing the top of the clip onto the shoe, they also do slightly less damage to the uppers, which is useful if you need to ride in your good footwear.
Don't believe the hype about being able to pull up though. They only really provide security against slipping forward on the pedal when pushing hard.
