Fixing my broken feet

For years, my toes have been bent wrong. I’ve been walking wrong. It’s called sciatic pain and nerve pain. These shoes were hard to put on for the first five minutes not because there was anything wrong with the shoes, but because there was everything wrong with my feet. I’m five days in right now and I have more comfort on my walk-in stride and step that I’ve had in years. I am 6 foot8 size 14 shoe, 280 pounds. These work for big men too. I can’t wait to take these to Nepal later this year.

Strand shoes

Once you get over the basic look, they are comfortable beyond belief. I do like walking in them and have walked up to 5 miles without a problem.

Great buy

They were comfortable from day one. I love that I felt stable when walking after coming off a major knee surgery. I wish I could run because I know the experience would be so enjoyable. Happy purchaser here. 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Love em

So far, I really like these shoes. I’ve worn Vibram toes shoes for a couple years but they weren’t sturdy enough for Crossfit workouts so I tried these ones because they had more stability and they are really comfortable. I normally wear a size 13 but I got a 12 1/2 because with toe shoes you wanna go more to the exact measurement and I don’t really need to worry about the width too much which was the right call.

Like a Glove

The first couple wearings were a bit awkward, especially because I was hypersensitive to all the toe sensations. Then, as I was able to focus back on non-foot related matters, all the sensations melted away. I started jogging a bit during my walks because I think they helped me find a natural stride. I can even meditate in the shoes and not be aware they are on. On top of that, I think mine are on the smaller side! I'll probably get a pair of the desert boots and a loafer or slip-on when the fates allow. Cheers, y'all!

Extremely happy with this footwear

Wearing Peluva footwear has strengthened my feet while alleviating foot pain / plantar fasciitis pain. Because of my foot pain and plantar fasciitis I kept trying various "thicker cushion" shoes, but I was not making much progress with the rehab. After 7 months of this pain, I eventually just decided to go the opposite direction of typical mainstream advice. I ordered a pair of Peluvas and felt significant relief and progress within days of wearing them. After wearing Peluvas for approximately 2 weeks, the foot pain and plantar fasciitis continued to improve and is nearly gone. I have since ordered 2 more pairs of Peluvas. I am extremely happy with my purchases and pleasantly surprised by the quality of Peluva. I have also noticed my feet and calf muscles feel stronger and more stable. I am 50+ years old male that is sold on the benefits of Peluva footwear.

Really like these shoes

I've been a vibram guy for 10+ years and I've bought 6 pairs. These are way more durable though and I love the extra cushion on the bottom for some plush when you're running on concrete. I recommend ordering the same shoe size as you normally do, I wear 13 and they fit perfectly with or without socks (you're gonna want the socks tho)

Truthfully, I was skeptical but these are amazing shoes. I bought another pair as I hope to completely switch to Peluva. After you get over the rather odd toe shoe look (should it really look odd though?), its amazing. I wear them everywhere.

Wish I did it sooner

These shoes are great. I can feel the ground under my feet, and as I’m walking, and I am more balanced. These are the only shoes I will wear to the gym from now on, no more cushion shoes.

Another winning pair of shoes for me! This is my 4th or fifth pair of Peluva. I love them and wear them as my main shoes.

Total comfort

This is my 2nd pair of Peluva's. The first pair are the Aspen boots which I love but wanted something lighter for the warmer months to tried the Strand ATR. They are lighter and breathe and I like them even better than the Aspen's. I move better, stand straighter and feel energized when wearing them. Never going back to conventional footwear.

4th pair of peluvas

Now that I have my size dialed in, it’s easy for me to buy more Pelova’s. For me, the shoes round about a half size smaller. Than my normal size. Cool look to them. Feel pretty damn good in the gym. Haven’t tried them hiking yet.

So awesome

I have been wearing my Peluva's in the gym for a couple weeks now and I love it! I am used to barbell squatting in bear feet but now I wear the Peluva's and it feels even better. I can't tell you how great they feel when doing sprints on a grass surface. I feel like I could go a 100 miles an hour. I really like grip going up hills and down hills. It feels like I am barefoot. They are a little hard to get on in the beginning. You have to be patient. My toes kept wanting to go into the same toe space. LOL. Overall they are awesome. I have not run long distance on hard surfaces as of yet, but on grass or dirt or sand you will love them!!
