Assessment of Men's Strand Sport Mess

Great product, appears to be the right size. UNFORTUNATELY, I have a knee injury and will not be able to try them on until after surgery - which might be two months away. I look forward to wearing them proudly!

Great Shoe

I really love these shoes This is my 3rd pair of Peluvas. The sport mesh has so far worked very well. I use them while doing intense TRX workouts and no problems. They are light weight and comfortable while working out or walking.

Good product

It's a good feel, it's comfortable and flexible. I'm not sure how good the sizing is because I'm pretty snug in the toe, I'm assuming as it breaks in it will fit just right.

Great Addition

I've had my set for about 5 days, my feet were wrecked from bunyons and snug shoes. Wearing them the first couple of days, I noticed by day 2 my feet had straightened out, there is some discomfort but it's becoming less and I don't have the foot fatigue at the end of the day, considering I walk 4 to 6 miles daily. They're taking some getting used to but I can see an improvement in my feet even after 5 days of use. I would strongly recommend these instead of surgery or toe spacers. They are lightweight, fit like a glove and the bottoms provide enough support that you walk over virtually any terrain.

Couldn't be happier

I couldn’t be happier with these shoes. From the first day I wore them, the comfort stood out immediately. The toe box gives your feet plenty of natural spacing, which has honestly been a game changer. My toes don’t feel cramped at all, and my feet feel stronger and more stable when walking and training. I’ve noticed better foot awareness, improved balance, and more natural movement overall. The minimalist feel took almost no adjustment, and they’re incredibly lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear. As someone who values mobility and performance, I love that they allow your feet to move the way they’re supposed to. I’ve also felt improvements in ankle mobility, foot strength, and overall comfort compared to traditional shoes that squeeze your feet together. If you care about foot health, natural movement, or just want a comfortable everyday shoe with great toe spacing, I highly recommend giving these a try. Definitely exceeded my expectations. 👊🏼

Comfortable shoes outside of the breaking period of my feet not the shoes

Overall they are comfortable when my toes get use to them. The middle three toes on my left foot are not straight and the individual toes of peluvas is correcting that but it does cause some pain on occasions, but it is getting better the more I wear them. Sizing is always a question, and for me, I probably could have gone with my regular EU size. I went up a half size and while it's not bad, I probably would have had no problems at my normal size.

I am enjoying the shoes, they do take some getting use to but not much, they are very comfortable. I'm pretty sure I'll buy another pair, so I can have another option or two. I also bought the five toe socks and those get five stars as well. Great products!

Reuniting with an Old Friend

I had a pair of Vibrams in the early 2000’s while I was in the Marines and loved them. When Peluva came out, I was instantly curious. When speaking with the support staff, they said if I loved Vibrams, I’d live Peluva. They weren’t wrong! The are more comfortable and delivered a premium product as advertised. The more I wear them, the more my body thanks them. I will be having hip replacement surgery next month and look forward to using them in my recovery.

Awesome shoes

I had vibram in the past, 1st time with your product and I love his the fit and. How comfortable they are. I only recommend when someone purchases a pair that they go up a half a size of what they normally wear! Great product so far!

10/10 do recommend.

My boyfriend loves his peluva shoes. He has not been complaining about knee pain or issues with his hips and back at all lately. He also says that his feet are usually in horrible condition and the peluvas have exfoliated his feet and he doesn't get swamp foot with them anymore either.

All Black Peluvas

Shoe are working out pretty good. As suggested they run a half size small so as a true 13.5 (sucks I know) the 24's fit extremely well. So far, I've been breaking them in around the house and after 3 days the indivudal toe sections are working independently now. If I had any issue it was with the socks. I only bought 1 pair to ensure fitment and am glad I did. My right sock fits fine but my left cuts off my circulation around my 2nd toe. It could just be that singular pair but thats the only issue I'm having at this point, the shoes are great.

Great!

I’m in healthcare and love the feel of these shoes! If I know I won’t be getting my shoes wet: these are my go to! On rainy days or on occasion when I’m assisting with showering: I must wear regular shoes (that I was once very comfortable in) and the difference is huge. On 16 hour work days when I haven’t been able to wear my Peluva shoes, I come home and prefer to change into my Peluvas rather than going barefoot. These shoes more therapeutic to my feet than many other remedies.

Ahhhh

Ahhhhh, now that I have the correct size, it is a relief to put these on in the morning on my way to work and especially after I've done a 8-10 hr shift in my uniform issued work boots. I tried them because I have bunions and the relief that they have given my toes in the short time I've had them is amazing. The 1 noticeable difference is the steadiness I can tell in my feet going up and down steps.

Overall wonderful w/ a note on the sizing

Got these all whites for my 94 year old dad who walks 3-6 miles a day in Hawaii for early Father’s Day. He’s 40 years into the 10-toe shoe movement and was keen to try out Peluvas. Loved them immediately with a sizing caveat. I took the guide of buying his 1/2 size smaller but after five days of his daily walks his feet hurt so he cut out the back for a comfier fit so I went up 1/2 size for his next pair and it was perfect. Meanwhile he has taken out the tongues of all three (added the ATRs for a comfier walk (the slight irritation from the tongue might be unique to him) but he prefers the lightweight mesh strands) shoes for a smoother fit and he lives in these shoes. Wears them everywhere but church. He’d be a great brand ambassador bc tourists get out of their cars to talk to him about his funky shoes all the time. He’s a retired professor with stories for days and he known all over Oahu for his legendary long walks rain or shine. Aloha!
