    You made a great case for these sandals. I tried hiking sandals several years ago, but lost them before I had a chance to use them much. Since then, I have enjoyed the zero drop world of trail runners and have been using Altra's Lone Peak series. I love the more minimal feel even though I am a 230# man. I have since explored earthing. It works! I have less back pain because I earth at night. I have always wanted to be able to take earthing to the trails with me, but the only way is to use one of those elastic straps on my foot and clamped to a tent stake... that's fine for recovery, but I wanted the option to hike during the day... sometime 10 or more hours and not have the fatigue from the foot pain. I ordered the Alpha Adventure sandal to see if it can work with my hiking. Maybe not the entire day, but maybe as a switch out during the day. Who knows... this is a new relationship with footwear; so I will have to figure out what is best. At least I will have a great 3 season sandal for my scooting around my state of Florida.
    Again... thank you for your video, and the discount code!

      You’re welcome! I do think they could be a good alternate for long hikes - I’ve taken mine before to switch from normal hiking shoes because I love the feeling of not being cramped in a shoe and you get such a good feel for the ground. Just be cautious because the open toe makes it easy to stub a toe or get a cut. I usually only take them on simple hikes so I don’t have to worry about that, at least if I’m trying to move quickly.

When a hiker flip flops a trail, he starts in the middle then hikes to one terminus. Then finds a way back to the middle and hikes to the other terminus. Its a popular pattern on the Appalachian Trail.

    I just got my pair today. I took them out and tested to see if I was grounded. Sad to say I could not get the light to stay on. I'm going to test them the next day and see if the light works on ground and then test them out on sidewalk. I also could not get the light to stay on wearing the socks they provide. I'll test that again the next day. I noticed that Holly did not test to see if she was grounded with wearing them. I would like to know if any others tested these sandals to see if they were grounded when wearing them with socks and without socks.

    I’ve all 3 versions ☺️ I started with the alpha as I had a foot injury and needed more cushioning. I wear those for running. The circadian and elemental feel pretty similar in terms of ground feel. I actually prefer the elemental as the rubber footbed is easier to clean and dry out. Sand and bits of grass tend to stick to the textured canvas surface more than the rubber. Aesthetically I also think the black rubber looks cool. I have the comfort ergonomic laces. The laces are definitely conductive - test with a magnet to find out!

      What a good idea. I just got a meter and I have a pair of sandals made by attaching an earthrunners strap to a xero shoes sole. Tried them out with an earthing mat. Basically didn't work. I can get a connection only very briefly by moving my foot around and pressing down. Might possibly work better with an earthrunners sole as they're firmer, but the copper was touching the mat, so I doubt it.
      Fortunately doesn't matter too much to me: this strap and sole together are still a comfortable sandal for me and when I can I'll go fully barefoot.

      But I don't know. Maybe somehow the strap would work better with an earthrunner sole. I'd say, get one of the meters yourself. They're cheap and easy to use and I think it's probably a good idea to have one to test any product that claims to ground you.

      Sorry for the delayed response, I didn’t get a notification for your comment. All of the laces are good for hiking and running in my opinion, but the company seems to recommmed the adventure laces for hiking because they’re most sturdy. I would be least likely to use the ergonomic sandals for long hikes just because they’re softer and thinner, but I have done short hikes in them. All depends on how sensitive your feet are and how strenuous the hike is

      ​@@RenewalFitCoachI have two pairs of Xero and really wanted to like them (especially that I used to live close to the company hq). The ideas and general design is good, but the soles are horrendous regarding traction. They slip so much that I don't feel I can trust them on even minimally adventurous places. Wet rocks? Forget about it. I'm about to buy my second pair of Earth Runners after over 3.5 years on my Circadians. The place finally broke out of the plug on one, but a local cobbler (in Nepal currently) fixed it in just a few minutes for next to nothing :) But they are very worn and it's time for a fresh pair. I was thinking of maybe the Primal (new version of Elemental) hoping that the rubber foot bed would be more traction in water on the foot. But after hearing the fabric actually provides better traction, I'll stick with them I feel. It's really my only concern while wearing them, other than that they're a 10/10 for me and I've never trusted a shoe to grip as much as my Circadian. It's worth so much to be able to trust your shoe while doing some crazy rock hopping! Earth Runners for the win 😊

    These look like great sandals. The only hesitation I have is that copper tab on the bottom. I don't believe in that "grounding" theory. It's definitely not a scientific concept. Is there any way you can take off that copper tab and replace it w/ something else? If not, does that copper influence the grip? i.e., does it make you slip sometimes, like when you're walking on the street or even off road on large rocks?

    • @RenewalFitCoach
      @RenewalFitCoach  Рік тому +3

      I copper part is attached to the laces. I would think it could be removed but I think it holds the laces in place. You’d have to ask Earth Runners. It’s never caused slipping for me and you don’t feel it at all. There is research and science behind grounding but it’s not as studied and scientifically backed as more modern medicine concepts. It seems to hugely benefit some people and not work so well for others. But if you just like the sandals you can leave the plug and probably won’t notice it. I honestly wear them more for the comfort and flexibility than any grounding benefits. I don’t notice drastic benefits form the copper.

It came to over $100. I hope the earthing feature works. I bought Espadrills, (sp) from Spain, that have straw soles for "earthing/grounding" purposes also.
      It is so sad that other than leather soles (which come from a slaughtered horse) they don't make more shoes in a natural material without rubber or plastic soles.

      Like most products I’m sure they’re marked up like crazy from what they actually cost to make. But I think they do all of the laces by hand and the quality of the sandals and laces are actually really good. Not typical cheap flip flop or sandal kind of material

      Vibram soles, stainless steel threaded laces, hand made in the USA, and as a small business, the price is well justified. Of course they would seem expensive if you’re used to paying for cheap sandals made by a big corporation in china

    I love the sandals and agree with your points except for the bit about grounding, it's wild that people actually believe this, but it's completely misinformation

    • @themoon6178

      What makes you say it’s misinformation? It’s indeed true that the earth’s natural electrical charge affects and balances the electrical charge of our own bodies, through direct contact with the electrons of earth’s surface. Exposing our body to the electromagnetic Schumann resonance (grounding) has been shown to have many benefits, such as realigning our circadian rhythm, regulating cortisol levels, improving sleep quality and reducing stress, supporting the immune system’s function, and lowering blood pressure and heart rate. Conductive organic materials like copper and stainless steel allow us to create this link and maintain our essential connection with nature-which includes us.

    How come no one ever talks about how uncomfortable and painful they are to wear? Seriously, they’re like medieval torture devices. Can we be honest here?

    • @RenewalFitCoach
      @RenewalFitCoach  Рік тому +1

      I think I mentioned that some people take a while to wear them in. I have honestly had very few days where any of mine bothered my feet and if I did it was from wearing them for miles and miles. 95% of the time I find them super comfortable. But I can see how they could hurt people’s feet, too. no shoe is for everyone unfortunately 🤷🏼‍♀️

      “These ones” isn’t helpful for those who cannot clearly see the content of the video. Using clear and explicit language is helpful for those with vision issues.
      But, important to SAY that when making comments like this if it was your intent. Otherwise, people think you’re just being rude and critical about her word choices
