Love these shoes and excited to see where they’ll take me and my foot health. Sizing a half up from my normal running shoe size was a good fit for me.
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerI learned of these from Chalene and I absolutely love them. I have been wearing them every day. I have bunions on both feet and planters fasciitis on my right foot. I have had great improvement in my feet in just a week. I am so grateful!!thank you.
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerAwesome. I love the feel of them and they have helped tremendously with my neuroma. So much litter comfortably during walking and much easier to move feet during workouts! ❤️
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerI have a pair of these shoes and every color. Even the ones with the fur on top! That’s all I wear now. They have the greatest for my feet, knees, balance, and everything in between. My neighbors wear them, the girls I work out with at the gym wear them, nothing but good things to say. I’ve always wornVibram before, these are 100% better. And I walk a lot, last year my Oura rings said I walked 25 marathons! These are great shoes…
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerThey fit better...super happy!!
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerThese trainers are a game-changer! From the moment I slipped them on, I could feel the difference. The balance and support they provide are incredible, and they’re so comfortable that I could wear them all day. I did a tough 2-hour workout today, and not only did my feet feel great, but I could tell my performance improved thanks to the stability they offer. I’m never going back to my old athletic shoes for workouts. Also, I highly recommend pairing these with thin socks that have individual toe coverings – it makes a huge difference in comfort and fit! Absolutely five stars!
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerTrainer fits like a glove. I wore my shoes on a 10 mile walk, feet felt great. I was concerned that might hurt but that didn't happen. I certainly will be replacing my other minimalist shoes.
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerRelieved my foot pain after several wears!
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerAfter about four days, my feet got used to this new type of shoe. I am genetically predisposed to hammertoes,. My mom’s and grandmother.’s toe woes., AKA surgeries, prompted me to be proactive in taking care of my feet. I wear a size 8.5 in regular shoes, a size 9 in Brooks , but had to size up to 9.5 for these Peluvas. They’re awesome! I love them!
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerAs someone who has a very high arch and suffers from Planta Fascitis, I saw these shoes at a health conference last month. I couldn't wait to try them out and immediately fell in love. They were like being barefoot (which is how I like to be) and felt so good. I have been wearing them non-stop, workouts in them are a game changer; they have better stability, and balance, and feel more natural. The funny part is wearing them on the trail, I feel like my feet will get wet because I don't feel like I have shoes on. It is the perfect comfort, perfect cushion, support, and everything in between and I love all the color options. I will eventually have one in every color. :)
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerThey are very cool looking and feel good! I like that they help your foot adjust to a more natural form therefore helping with posture. I always liked walking barefoot so the wideness of the shoes make it feel very comfortable. Still adjusting with some of the smaller toes but feels good and love matching with my boyfriend!
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerI love both my Peluvas! I did not have trouble adjusting to them, but I had been wearing "toed" socks for a month or so, which might have helped. I seem to have more trouble getting my crooked toe in these than my ATRs , but over all, not that hard. Again, my hope is they will help keep my big toe from moving inward and from rubbing on my other toes. ( They leave cool footprints in the snow too....lol)
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerTook me three tries to get the right size! I did the websites’ sizing guide, which said I was an 8.5 ( which is normally what I wear). I ended up with a 9.5, which allows me to wear the socks too. That being said, the return process could not have been easier! I did get blisters on my first outing, but that was probably my fault for not breaking them in first (like you would hiking with boots). So far, I like the way they feel, comfortable and minimal. Feel like my feet, knees and hips will thank me for this down the road!
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerThese shoes are amazing and well made! I wear them to the gym and what a nice difference from regular shoes. You can definitely feel how good they are for your feet. From weight training, to cardio, they are very flexible and supportive. They are extremely comfortable and I cannot imagine going back to regular sneakers now. I am typically a size 7 in an athletic shoe, but the 7.5 was the right fit for me.
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerI purchased a pair of these because I suffer from metatarsal pain and thought it might help to have my toes separated. They did relieve the pain almost immediately and I wore them for about an hour the first time. I am slowly building up my time, as they are so different from what I'm used to. I bought the toe socks and am glad I did because I don't know how anyone could walk barefoot in these. The material between the toes is too hard, making it too uncomfortable (at least, for me) to wear long enough to break them in. Overall, I'm very glad that I bought these !
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerI shopped around for MONTHS looking for the best barefoot shoe fit for me, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase! My feet feel free even after a long day, and I’m excited to get another pair to match more outfits!
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerTotally love this shoe, it’s beyond comfortable plan to order another pair or two plus, the Sox’s. They are cute, confirm and great support Happy, I heard the owner talking on The Plantstrong podcast. Very informative
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerLove my shoes, I ordered a half size up and it is the prefect size. I love the way the shoes fit my toes...feels so natural. I can bend and stand on my toes so easy! I will be ordering more in different colors, my first order was white. My husband says they look great! I love the look and the feel!!!
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerThese are very comfortable shoes that very gently keep the toes a bit splayed and I have had a lot less cramping in my feet. I have enjoyed wearing these for strength group training at the gym (nice and low to the ground) as well as for walking and daily wear.
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerI enjoy walking more with my new Peluva shoes. I believe my feet get a better exercise when I'm walking and not just my legs.
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerThe fit of the shoe is comfortable for width and toe spacing. Challenging to get on, but this is a lace up style, so I can loosen / open the shoe to fit my hand in on top of the foot to help guide the toes into place. Takes some practice and patience
I have only worn them twice. First of all when it says to size up, listen! I ordered a 7 and returned them after just trying to get them on my feet. I always wear a 7 in every shoe. I sent them back and got the 7.5 and they fit perfect. My left foot is loving the new adventure. My right foot not so much. I am having pain in my second toe. This is not the shoes fault, it is my foot and the way my toes are crammed together after years of point shoes and bad shoes in general! I made it through both of my workouts and treadmill walks with them and my foot warms into the position after a few minutes of arguing. I already feel muscles in my legs I haven't used while working out or walking! I am very much looking forward to my feet after wearing them for 6 month, a year or forever! I will never workout in another shoe, barefoot is the way of life!!!
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerVery comfortable. After hearing Mark 's podcast I decided to train at home barefooted. I am a Fitness Instructor/Trainer so decided to continue this in the form of a minimalist shoe. This shoe is very comfortable. There was no getting used to it, tried it on and I was good to go. Thanks Mark!
Women's Strand Lightweight TrainerThe sneakers are comfortable and easy to put on. I was diagnosed with arthritis of the big toe and the surgeon wanted to fuse the joint. I have been religiously wearing the sneakers and they give great support to the big toe joint. My feet are getting stronger and the pain is significantly reduced.
