This pair is my second purchased - my first having been purchased almost 4 years ago. The reason for the second pair is purely color! I love blue but wanted to change it up from time to time. I must say these are truly valuable to my Pilates practice - I refuse to wear anything else - the security that is provided is unmatched. They are also durable and easy to clean. (Let me say the 'older ones' show no signs of wear). I am a former ballet dancer who is ultra picky with what is worn on my feet and these are perfect!. They are always noticed by others and I am always highly recommending. Thank you!!!

I use these for Pilates and grip socks ARE useless compared to these shoes. They even help me with my balance! I have the dark and light grey and I wish they had a neutral skin color because I would buy those too! :)

I was stunned by the quality of the yoga pants. Truly a luxurious fabric that is more substantial than other name brand pants I own by a long shot. They are almost silk-like soft, they do not pill from what I have seen thus far and are not sheer or see thru. I sized down as suggested and they fit perfect!

I was a little skeptical at first. The moment I put them on, I knew I had made a great choice. I was worried that my feet would slip around inside the Barreletics, they do not. They are exactly what I wanted and needed. I also received a lot of great help with my questions on sizing. They feel great on my feet. Like nothing at all! Works for me.

I looked at these Pilates shoes for over a year thinking “Way too expensive.” Well, I can't tell you how much I spent on Pilates socks that got ruined and stretched out of shape in no time. They never made me feel secure in my footage. Then as a birthday gift to myself, I got these. Game Changer. Great Support and Confidence say it all. Do not wait BUY THEM. Worth every penny!

I was looking for a "good" pair of Pilates socks and came across what I thought was a ridiculously priced alternative. I sat on the idea for a couple of weeks but finally decided to take the plunge. I did sign up for an account for a 10% discount but I still held my breath until they arrived. After my first class my reaction was: absolutely worth it.

I am a full time Barre instructor and teach on a variety of surfaces and mats - these provide the perfect level of grip and support and fit like a glove! YES! Finally a good durable barre shoe!

I cannot tolerate toe socks, and I needed something that makes me feel safe on the reformer. It has to be something I can wear that allows my toes to splay, doesn't but doesn't have to be replaced all the time, like grippy socks. These silicone sandal/shoes are perfect. The entire sole grips, and feels very secure when I work out. They clean easily with soap and water, and feel like they will last a good long while. The only downside is they are harder to put on and take off but the straps can be adjusted to fit around the shape of the foot. They are pricey, but I have easily spent over $100 on grippy socks at my studio, so in the long run, it's worth it. Yep. Buy them.

I'll admit I was skeptical spending so much on a pair of "socks", however these were so worth it in the end. These grip the floor in class while doing lunges and side planks that you're not budging. In the usual half toe socks I'd wear, you'd get a toe wedgie and/or start sliding which does not help with stability in class. I can't wait until the black comes back in stock on my size. These are worth the price for all the grip socks I've replaced for losing grip or just not being the right fit/style I needed. And these look super cute on your feet! Another person in class already complimented how cute they were!

I saw a person in my Pilates class wearing these and I was curious. After looking them up, I'll admit I was skeptical paying so much for "socks". After a little justification on my head (I've likely spent that much or more on grip socks as I explored which type I liked better and the grips just wearing out), I decided to give these a go. There's a little learning curve wearing them for the first time, however you get used to them. The biggest thing was being used to sliding my foot in socks vs these grip so well you need to pick up your for and move it on the footbar or have your strap in the right place for feet in straps. These are so secure there's no sliding or tie wedgies doing lunges. My side planks, I'm not moving! And these clean up just with a rinse! These are definitely worth the purchase. I can't wait for the black to come back in stock in my size.

I bought these for BARRE class and really love them, but I’ve also use them for kayaking and being able to walk on our dock without slipping — love the quality and the fit! EASY ON / EASY OFF.

I i put anti slippers on all my shoes but still slide. These are the only shoes I can walk a few steps with without slipping at all. Genius

I LOVE these grippy water shoes, they're just as described. Comfy, easy to wash, they hug my feet through dance movements. Our bellydance troupe has been trying to find flattering open-toe dance shoes for an upcoming outdoor performance that don't detract from our costumes like ballet slippers or jazz shoes, or heeled ballroom shoes) ... we needed something that mimics the traditional barefoot bellydance experience we're used to while protecting the ball and heel. These do the trick! While grippy indoors for yoga, they allow easy spins on concrete outdoors...though of course we don't expect them to withstand too much rough usage like this. If barreletics could combine the rubbery uppers with a reinforced suede (or equivalent non-grip material) on the ball & sole you could corner the market on ****, unique 'barefoot' dance shoes for both indoor & outdoor performances! Fun note, I was even able to make them a shimmery bronze with Rub & Buff metallic wax to match our costumes!!

I was constantly buying Pilates socks and they constantly lost grip to the point I would fall off the foot bar. These shoes are amazing and have a great grip and I feel secure when using the reformer.

I used to lose focus constantly adjusting my socks during mat pilates. Barreletics skins stay in place and let me focus on my workout. My form is better and my strength is increasing because my workouts are so much more engaging!
