I like them a lot but.. probably not as much as my Oso Flacos? I was going to return my Origens but only to replace the leather laces (that I opted for) for the "performance laces" that I find to be easier to adjust and more comfortable than the leather laces. I got the return label to get them replaced but the leather laces grew on me and I started wearing them more often without the leather support strap or whatever it is. However I find myself wearing my Origens for "dressier" occasions. I will say that the Performance Laces are more comfortable and easy to adjust tho. So far I haven't ran in them but I do a lot of walking. They don't feel as agile as my Oso Flacos but so far I attribute that to me not wearing them as often and as long as my Oso Flacos. Other than that I love my Luna's in general. People have noticed my excitement about them and have said that my whole energy has changed since I started wearing them. Can't substantiate the reason exactly but there's something very special about these sandals.
called to discuss with service rep prior to buying about running service and tread thickness compared to two other luna's I own, but the weight is much heavier and that was not brought up.
Hello, Thank you for your review. We would be happy to exchange them for a lighter model like our Leadville Pacer. To start an exchange please head over to www.lunasandals.com/returns Thank you, Marc LUNA Sandals
So far I have run eight runs, four miles each (32 miles total), in these sandals. Most of the runs have been on wet and dry trails, but on roads as well. I have also worn them weightlifting (squats, leg presses, calf raises), hiked in them, gardened in them, and worn them casually. Having run in minimalist/barefoot shoes since 2010, these felt heavy and stiff initially. They flopped around, and I even tripped once when the front end caught the ground. It took around 20-24 miles or so to dial in the laces. Sometimes they felt too tight and sometimes loose. Sometimes the rear part of the strap kept sliding down. Sometimes my foot felt too forward and sometimes too far back. The extra straps were helpful in keeping my foot in place. Now I can slide in and out of the sandals without much effort. I still use the extra straps for runs, but take them off for everything else. Every now and then the straps need a little adjustment, but for the most part I don’t have to do too much. After 32 miles of running, the sandals are a little more flexible, and the footbed has ever so slight hints of beginning to form around my foot. Mostly it appears still flat, and not much wear at all on the bottom. I appreciate how the straps are sunken in on the bottom, so I don’t have to worry about them getting worn out underneath like other sandals I’ve run in with similar lacing. I chose these because I wanted something that provided a little more protection when running on rocks, and it was the only thicker model that didn’t have the new wings. I was worried the wings would rub and cause blisters underneath my ankles, on the inside of my foot, like other sandal brands with similar technology. I knew the old lacing system would work for me so I stuck with it. I would have liked to have something a little lighter, but the sole on these seem pretty solid and will probably last a while. And I think that over time they’ll form more to my feet. I also like that they are flat, so they don’t mess with my running form.
Awesome! This is my fourth pair over the past six years. Luna sandals actually make me feel happy. It is weird, but when I put them on my feet my whole attitude changes, I feel happy, and get into this total forward-thinking and very positive state of mind. Thanks! Jim in Arizona
These are the best Luna's I've had. I bought a pair of Mono and Oso, they were good but I feel these are stronger when I run under trail conditions. The laces are more comfortable especially on the heel. Greetings from Guadalajara México!
