First Pair

So far so good with these shoes. One issue I have thus far is the laces tend to loosen up while wearing them and the extra lace starts to flop about as the stay-clip comes loose.

Response from Peluva

Thanks for the feedback, Lincoln! Glad they’re working well overall, we’ll pass along the note about the laces to the team.

Must try

Best shoes i ever use on my life , they have like a week or 2 of adaptation time before you can use them as your day to day driver but for the gym , outdoors runs and hiking they are fantastic

Wow I’m hooked

Was skeptical at first, a little difficult the first couple times just getting them on. Been wearing them daily and luv it.

Thanks, Anthony! Glad you’re hooked. They do take a minute to get used to, but sounds like you’re all in now!

Black Men's Strand ATR

To whom it may concern, I really enjoy the Men’s Strand ATR, this five-toe minimalist footwear is fantastic. I use them for both weightlifting and walking, and they help keep my toes in their correct anatomical position, naturally separating and aligning them. Overall, they’re excellent for enhancing foot mechanics! Best regards, J-F.A

Response from Peluva

Thanks for the thoughtful review, J-F.A! We’re so glad the Strand ATRs are helping with alignment and supporting your training and walking routine.

Amazing comfort and performance!

As a tall woman, I often have difficulty finding specialty shoes that are both excellent performance and aesthetically pleasing. These shoes are both! Would love a size 12.5 woman's comfy Ugg-looking shoe!

Alyssa W.· October 28, 2025

Response from Peluva

Thanks for the kind words, Alyssa! We’re so happy the comfort and look are working for you. We’ll definitely pass your Ugg-style request along to the team!

Amazing Customer Service

I loved my pair of Peluva’s and then I suddenly had an issue with one piece of tread delaminating. I reached out to customer service just wanting a remedy to reattach it- they sent me a new pair of shoes no questions asked. I wasn’t expecting or even asking for this. I will definitely buy another pair from them in the future. As for the treads, I’m just wondering if this model is better on soft surfaces like trails and the beaches than hard surfaces such as roads and pickleball courts, etc. They have incredible traction. We will see. Thanks Peluva!

Response from Peluva

Thanks so much, John! We’re thrilled our team could help, and your feedback on surface use is super helpful. We appreciate your support!

LOVE THEM

This is my 2nd pair of ATR’s and my 4th pair of Peluvas overall. These are the most comfortable footwear I’ve ever owned. I will not buy another brand.

Jonathan C.· October 28, 2025

Response from Peluva

We love hearing that, Jonathan! Thanks for sticking with Peluva, so glad you’re enjoying the ATRs.

Shoelaces

The shoelace design is a bit odd I would have liked to see more of a traditional way to lace up my shoes🤷 everything else is awesome 🤙🏼

Appreciate the feedback on the laces, T.J. Happy everything else is hitting the mark!

Great hiking , trail and daily shoe

I’ve had mine for a month now and took them on a 4 mile hike the first day I received them. No foot pain and a grounded foot feel when walking over rocks and terrain. I have unique shaped feet, so I need a size between 12-12.5. With socks on I they feel just fine. Without socks I feel like my toes are not snug in the pockets. Overall this is a shoe and a company I’ll buy from again. Just need to dial in what works best for my feet.

Sounds like they’re really working for your hikes and daily use. Appreciate you dialing in the fit and sharing your experience!

First time buyer

Bought these to help with mobility and foot pain, I love how comfortable they are and am looking forward to purchasing my next pairs and a pair for my wife. Definitely need to go up in size if wearing the Peluva socks, fit great barefoot or with thin socks.

Appreciate the review, Jeff! Great to hear they’re helping with comfort, sounds like more pairs are on the horizon!

Great quality, but take some time to get use to them in smaller doses before extended use.

Peluva Strand Atr

I got my Peluvas 2 weeks ago, and I love them. I've never worn toe shoes before. The 1st 2 days in a row I hiked a total of 7 miles. My feet were sore afterward but its worth it. My 1st time putting them on took 20 minutes and produced alot of sweat, but I think I have the hang of it. I had to get a size 14, which I thought would make me return them, but I make it work by lacing the shoes tight, and I hardly notice a difference apprearance wise between a regular size 13 and this 14. Its very comfortable.

Thanks for the detailed review, Victor! Sounds like you’re adapting well and making the most of your new pair, happy hiking!

seriosly

ok first let me tell you this. yall need to hire a better photographer. maybe from only feet or something. Your pictures make your models' feet look like clown feet. super skeptical on what they looked like but I took that leap. when I put mine on the looked like normal shoes. Thank goodness. So when measuring, I went with the middle measurement. should of gotten the one size bigger to save the trouble of waiting. So wearing these was a blast I was actually very surprised how much they actually felt good on my feet. Im assuming it will take a while for my heel pain. But it might not go away, that’s just a pain that’s always there. Also never try and run in these for long distances when you first get them. I had to get from one end of Denver airport to the other in 10 min. when I tell you I have never had shin splints so bad in my life.. so ease yourself into that lol. Also remember that scene in sponge bob when he tries to drive and he pokes his big toe out the shoe. That’s how it feels to drive in these. All in all these are great, ignore my heal pain part. I cant stand in one spot for long periods of time but my entire foot pain has gone from a 9 to about 3 to 5. And for me that’s a big win for me. I've had $500 inserts that just failed me and the Good Feet store failed me. Wearing these at least 3 to 5 times a week has made it resend a lot. Even when switching to regular shoes, it helped too. I can feel my feet better even though the toes aren’t separated. My wife loves her pair and I've recommended them to a lot of family hoping they will jump on board.

Absolutely amazing, my feet feel better. My back hurts less. They are built well and very comfortable. A bit of a transition but i can tell that my feet are falling back into true form.

Beginning hiker

I have baby feet according to my wife. Standard shoes are to narrow and wanted to try something else. Wore these on a 5 mile moderate difficulty hike and my feet did great. It was a bit to get used to them but after a bit they were good.

John J.· October 17, 2025

Response from Peluva

Thanks, John! Glad they held up well on your hike, sounds like a great start to your barefoot journey.

Pretty good, takes some practice

you need to wear these for a while before they are comfortable; otherwise, they are pretty good.

Scott E.· October 16, 2025

Response from Peluva

Appreciate the review, Scott! They definitely get better with wear, glad they’re working out for you.
