Love the look stitching in 2 of the toes caused some irritation and a slight cut, but I was able to adjust the inside, and it has been good since. Wish the court shoe came in other colors so I can have an additional option I use the sports mesh for working out and walking and the Court Ad-In for casual wear
I really like these shoes. They’re very comfortable and lightweight. The socks are also great.
Go one size bigger of what you wear normally
Best shoes I ever owned
Love everything, they are great for your feet. Especislly for athletes.
I am easing into wearing them due to the structure of my toes. I have gone from 10 minutes to 2hrs. I am very pleased when I take my shoes off my toes are in the position the are ment to be. I cannot wait until I can wear them for a 16hr. Shift.
I have worn Vibram 5 Fingers for a while and was upset by the smell issues and didn't realize that I needed some extra protection from the ground. These shoes solve both of those issues and are clearly superior for daily wear. They have all the features I want for a daily wear shoe and are also more stylish than the 5 Fingers. The 5 Fingers are superior for groundfeel and I prefer them for working out/running but the Peluva's are my new shoe for whenever I am not working out.
Good fit although I would like 1/4 additional length for the big toes. Comfortable for walking, which I do a lot of. Random strangers asking about them. They stand out! It's my 3rd pair of Peluva.
I love these new shoes. It takes a little getting used to and learning how to get all the toes in the right place but once you figure it out the shoes are comfortable and work well.
When I had previously bought a competitor's shoe prior to 2019, it felt like I was taking a gamble on a relatively new entry into the market. It was good for walking with, but uncomfortable for pretty much anything else. Fast forward to today, these are good for walking but feel fine to wear for the full day at work sitting behind a desk. When walking with these, I feel like I'm being propelled forward. I wish my pinky toes were easier to get in there, but maybe that will get easier with time.
I've had the original Strands for about 2 years and put a lot of miles on them, so needed a replacement. I got another pair for work plus these sport mesh ones. The sport mesh ones have been great as well, I think the extra outter padding helps. I originally got these style of shoes because one of my toes would always get a blister while walking for exercise, and they seem to help prevent that.
Love it
I wear my Peluva's to the Y and had worn them out. This is my second pair. I wouldn't do a lot of high impact workout with them because of my age, But they are great for lifting and strength training.
Haven't worn them outside the house yet, but feels good walking around the house.
At first I thought these were going to be another trend. Looks cool, looks different, but doesn’t perform well. I was wrong. Took them out for a test run for about 2 miles and I felt my legs like never before. Calves were on fire and I felt like my entire foot and leg got a workout. The freedom of having the toes open and spread out also felt great.
I love it.
So far so good. I could feel them working on my feet the very first day of wearing them. It does take some getting used to but the more I wear them the more comfortable they become. Never knew how weak my toes were until I tried my first workout in the shoes just today. Amazing shoes overall. Im very pleased with the purchase
It gives you so much freedom that it feels like you’re not wearing anything. You will get a bunch of questions, and possibly curious looks from onlookers. Lead the charge on new innovation with these shoes. Normal shoes weaken your feet, these strengthen them.
The Strand Sport Mesh Peluvas are extremely comfortable. They were my 6th pair of Peluvas. I will continue to buy Peluvas. Life-changing. No more foot pain…been a life-long issue and as an unexpected bonus, my lower back pain (I’ve had for several years) is gone. 5 stars! I’d give 10 if it were and option.
My husband loves these shoes. As soon as the work boots are off, these go on. Hiking, biking, trails- they do it all.
Helps with stability and good grounding especially when doing box jumps, deadlifts, and squats!
These feel like you are barefoot but protected! I've worked out in them the last week and they are great. I've also been fighting plantar fasciitis and after a few hours of wearing them my pain is the lowest it has been in seven months.
The shoes is very comfortable. These shoes run extremely small. I suggest sizing up two full sizes from your normal shoe size.
Not yet sure if it was an advantage to up a size. On the website it says the shoes run small. Ordinary shoes I wear at 10 and a half wide width. So I went with 11. My big toe is pretty close to the end while my other toes are around halfway. But with these shoes, it takes me several minutes to organize my toes into the slots. While the other shoes that is a step above this one, the ATR, with those, my toes go into the slots way more quickly and feeling much more natural with the guidance into the toe slots.
