Verified Buyer

Great s always and comfortable. Suggest more specific and less generic description of why materials were used.

It seemed like a lot of your descriptions are kind of generic and alike for the different styles. It would be nice to know why in this case you chose the mesh and what it does for performance, comfort, etc.… More specific information would be helpful in the decision process.

SSM feel really lightweight on my feet making runs feel great

Love to hear that the Strand Sport Mesh is making your runs feel great! Lightweight, grounded, and made to move, they’re built for that barefoot-inspired freedom. Keep crushing it out there!

Beautiful shoe

The shoe is very sleek and well designed the only issue I had was I need a little bigger compartment for my smallest toe. I have worn Vibram five fingers for years and thought I would try your shoes the quality is equal to Vibram and I have been really impressed with the feel of the shoe and durability of materials and styling . My only recommendation would be not to taper the small toe box as much. Overall well done for a great shoe

Far exceeded expectations!

I wear these everyday for walks and running errands. This past weekend I wore them in a hike in Harriman State Park in NY over some rough and rocky terrain. I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable they were with minimal cushioning and how great they made my feet feel. They allowed my feet to move in a much more natural way, stretching the muscles and using more muscles than I normally do hiking. It also allowed a more comfortable connection to the ground, placing my feet between smaller spaces with zero pain. 10 out of 10, would recommend. My feet feel better than they have in years.

10/10 review for a 10/10 adventure! Thanks, Benjamin. We love that the Strand Sport Mesh held up on the Harriman hike and gave your feet the natural movement and comfort they’ve been missing.

Able to squat again!

I have been able to squat with ease now that’s toe is in correct alignment. The toe splay had made it possible to active my deep feet muscles and feel strong in my legs again. Loving these shoes. I would go a half size up from your regular size if you have wide feet like me.

Love hearing this, Qwami! Toe alignment and deep foot muscle activation is exactly what the Strand Sport Mesh is made for. Here’s to stronger squats and happier feet!

Best shoe ever!

I wear these shoes for everything and everywhere. Sizing is perfect. After recently having my knee surgery, these are the only shoes I can wear that are pain free. Thanks Peluva, I'll be buying another pair!

Wonderful experience

I’ve been wearing minimalist shoes since 2009. Staring with the five fingers and a lot of other brands. I have really enjoyed my Sport Mesh Peluva’s! It’s been an outstanding experience so far!

WATERPROOF PLEASE!!!

Now that I own my 3rd pair of Peluva’s and I’m 100% sure that I won’t be wearing conventional vise grips on my feet again, would your company and designers ever consider making a pair of waterproof (NOT just resistant) shoes??? Pretty PLEASE!!!

Thanks for the awesome feedback, Antonio! We love your passion and we’ll definitely pass the waterproof request along to our product team. Stay tuned and thanks for being a loyal Peluva fan!

I can feel the difference already.

I’ve been combining these shoes with daily foot/toe exercises and toe spacers (not at the same time) and the difference has been astronomical. These shoes dropped into my life after one of my favorite influencers recommended them and I haven’t happier since. I’ve got drastically improved posture, my hammer toe is nearly nonexistent, and my balance has been restored. An investment in these shoes is truly an investment in your health.

Once you get them on, you don't want to take them off

The first few times, I struggled to get them on. My pinky toe wouldn't budge. Persistence and patience. Once you get them on, you don't want to take them off! These are the most comfortable shoes. Great customer service. Thank you, Kyla.

Comfortable Shoes with Great Customer Service

I had to exchange twice to find my correct size and Peluva made the process super easy each time. Ordering a half size up from my normal shoe size ended up being the perfect fit. Once I had the right size, I couldn’t be happier, these shoes feel natural and lightweight. The breathable mesh keeps my feet cool, and I can wear them all day without any foot fatigue. Great quality, great comfort, and excellent customer service.

Comfortable

I can't belive how comfortable they are. And customer service was awsome. Took 3 times to try different sizes but they made it happen and now I like better then regular sneakers.

My favorite brand

I was really wanting to like these shoes when I purchased my first pair. That’s why I purchased a second pair. They sizing isn’t always perfect, but the customer service is tremendous. Got my shoes swapped out quickly. My expectations have been exceeded. No matter what I do in them, from running, walking, just going to the store. They are my go to footwear.
