Took a few days to get used to, but they absolutely make walking and running feel more natural. I’ve used them for all sorts of exercise, including jump roping and lifting and they have providing unmatched balance and dexterity. I also love that they are suitable for all terrain! Highly recommend.
Love the enthusiasm, Abigail! We’re so happy to hear the shoes are helping and your foot feels better. Here’s to happy feet and many more comfortable steps ahead!

love it. More comfortable than I thought
I thought it would be more to the ground and I'd feel every pebble, but I was pleasantly surprised. I can feel the ground but Iits also comfortable. i like the feel of the openness and my feet seem to like walking this way now :)
That’s awesome, Elvis! It’s great to hear the shoes gave you the groundfeel you were expecting without sacrificing comfort. Sounds like your feet are loving the freedom—exactly what we aim for!

Court shoes
I got these specifically for on-court use playing basketball and volleyball. So far, I’m very happy with how they are holding up and my feet are even happier to not be crammed into standard court shoes!
That’s awesome to hear, Karl! Using the Strand ATRs for court sports is a bold move and we’re thrilled they’re holding up well—and even better that your feet are feeling free and comfortable.

Tim ‘s review on the shoe
I do like the shoes I did make an upgrade. I have a size bigger, which is actually perfect. Definitely different. Feeling still working on getting used to him but pretty amazing overall.
That’s incredible to hear, Brett. We’re so glad the Strand ATRs are helping with your recovery and easing your pain. Wishing you continued healing and comfort with every step!

Game Changer!!!
I ran in my new Peluva shoes today for the first time. Wow, just wow!!! Not only did I run twice as far as I normally do but my feet, calves and ankles had zero pain. I normally don't sprint during my jog but found myself sprinting several times impulsively. Amazing. I feel these shoes are life changing. Thank you for such an amazing product. Game Changer!!!
Wow, thank you! That’s such an exciting update. We’re thrilled to hear your first run felt that powerful and pain-free—and spontaneous sprints? That’s the kind of feedback we love. So glad Peluvas are making a difference for you!

A1 for every day walking.
These are my favorite shoes. They are insanely durable and so comfy. 10/10 for sure.
She has been great so far every time I’ve worn them they feel very comfortable and my foot feels more engaged. I should’ve purchased more toe socks, and unfortunately, the size I need are on backorder. Time is still needed to determine what my long-term opinion is, but so far so good!
This is my first pair of five toe minimalist shoes. I have other minimalist shoes, but nothing compares to these shoes! My gait is much more natural and I have much less hip pain. I have a dysfunctional SI joint and I have zero pain when I wear these shoes. They are the best investment I have ever made!
That’s amazing to hear, Cecelia! We’re so glad your Strand ATRs are helping improve your gait and reduce hip pain. Thanks for trusting us with your first pair of five-toe minimalist shoes. Sounds like you made the perfect choice!
I have always been a big fan of toe shoes since my first vibrams almost 20 years ago now. But being limited to only vibrams, having found these was amazing. My new favorite shoes and I already want more. Highly recommended from me.
Ordered the Strand ATR's last week after having seen Peluva ads and the like popping up on all of my social media pages. I've been wearing another brand of toe shoes for almost 20 years, so I'm more than familiar with this style of shoes. I literally wear toe shoes every day unless it's really cold or snowing outside and I have to put on my Ugg boots to stay warm.
I wore these in my house for an evening before putting them on for a day of my usual work and running around and really like them. I am most pleased with the style of the bottom of the shoe, as it has a larger inside base than the other brand. It gives my heel a much better feel inside the shoe, and it feels like I have a bit more space across the front width of the shoe for the the balls of my feet too. I also like the additional padding, as I have scar tissue on my plantar fascia and cysts on my metatarsals from a foot injury years ago. These have been much more comfortable, as most of my day is spent walking on a tile over concrete floor. Really glad I took a chance and bought these! I'll probably get another pair sometime soon.
Guess that means this is a 10 start review. Ya so...not been wearing anything else but my peluva shoes out and about. Now that I've been in them a couple of weeks, really like the sole! Just enough for gravely surfaces. Funny how much attention they attract! And well, when these do wear out, I know where to go! Also...nothing that the "Bought For" only allows for one selection. I bought mine pairs for multiple reasons.
Love them quality wise/ But the mens sizes dont come small enough for my feet which makes me a little sad, Ordered a 8.5 in womans hopefully These Zen ones will be my size,
Did the exchange because the Sizing Quote didnt fit me by far, turns out my feet are just too small for mens, still the best most comfortable shoes by far going to have to find more unique and colorful toe socks though
Oh and my little brother (5) said he wanted some for his feet because he gets ankle burns alot and thinks they look fun, i told him paluva doesnt sell kids shoes :( sadly

I added these in for one of my weekly rucks. Never done the toe shoes before but have used minimalist/barefoot shoes in the past. Two 3-5 mile rucks done so far and definitely adding more over the next couple weeks. I’ll try them out in the gym this week. Only difficulty I have had so far is getting the shoes on my toes. This will improve as I improve ,like I said 1st time with toe shoes.
