I've had Peloton shoes for over 2.5 years and when a hole appeared at the top of one of them it was time to replace them. I liked their fit and their looks. They were great until I was almost a year old and the bottom end started to separate. The dealer replaced the pair and was happy with that. Then after 8 months the whole floor fell apart while driving. I sent them a photo and at that point they stopped responding to the replacement. Too bad they don't take responsibility for their product. As my Peloton shoes lasted 2.5 years and still worked, it is not normal for a shoe to fall apart after 8 months. I have a photo and I've tried to upload it several times but it doesn't work.
