Really like the way they feel gripping the padding on the gym floor when I do lunges, farmers carries, and other weighted exercises where I'm moving and need to balance. Can tell a big difference between these and normal athletic shoes.

Very comfortable

Bought the new Strand Sport mesh. My regular shoe size is 10. I bought size 11. Initially bought the white ones, but thought I looked like the abominable snowman and switched to black, which are way better (from a color standpoint). It took a few wears to adjust initially, but now slip on pretty easily (I also have the socks that go with the shoes). It is definitely a much more comfortable walk. I initially started with Vibram 5 fingers, then moved to Altra (wide toe zero drop), and when those wore out, moved to Pleura. Am very happy with the purchase.

First Pair

I am blown away by the comfort, fit, and flexing I achieve in my Peluva's. So much so I immediately purchase 2 additional pair also (2) 3packs socks 1 each color, and still looking at a few more pair. Now the wife has just received her first pair and is adjusting to the toe spread.

Almost a Year In

I've had these shoes for almost a year. They are very comfortable I've had another brand of toe shoes in the past that were lower profile and you felt more connected to the ground in, but when that ground became gravel, the honeymoon was over :P They were good shoes, but I feel safer in these and love the variety. I have been jogging in them and I'm working back to 5 years ago when I was running 100 miles a month. I do suggest being careful when starting, but after the muscles you stop being so sore, it's very freeing and I feel like you get more feedback than from a standard running shoe with special soles and inserts. This goes for all the toe shoes in my experience: your pinky toe is likely going to be a jerk. Across my 4 pairs (different styles), my left pinky toe is still fussy, but if you know you've gone the shoe on right, the discomfort quickly works itself out as your toes settle into their correct position. I could talk forever on them but I have 3 more models to comment on!

Most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn

Normal shoes gave me knee pain and sore feet. But with my peluvas I don’t have that anymore. 10/10

Most comfortable shoes I've ever worn!

I was skeptical at first, but man, once you get these shoes broke in, they don't even feel like you are wearing shoes anymore. People give me funny looks, but if they knew how comfortable these shoes were, they wouldn't. I wear them everywhere and will 100% be buying more of these, plus looking forward to trying the Peluva Golf Shoes. As a small business owner myself, I appreciate the hard work and effort that your team put into designing and creating these one of a kind shoes. Also, your customer support is the best I've seen from a business in a long time. My wife had to return her set 3 times to get the right fit and there was never any push back from your team. Love it!!

Comfort & Mobility - CHECK!

I started wearing the Strand ATRs and loved them, so I decided to try the Strand Sport Mesh and am very happy with this version as well. Very comfortable and my feet are happier as a result of wearing Pueluva! I would note that the sizing varies a little bit from normal shoes and between shoe types. For example, for the Strand ATR, which I've bought two pairs of, I wear a size 10; however, for the Strand Mesh, I wear a size 10.5. They fit more like a glove than your typical shoe, so be ready for an adjustment. Love these shoes, though!!

I love these shoes.

Thanks, Peluva. I had purchased the wrong size and was able to return them and get the correct ones. I love this black pair and will be purchasing others soon.

Much more support.

I had my other polluba shoes for over a year, and I definitely wore those in. Once I got these new models, I could feel the firmness, and obviously I just need, though, or i'm in more to break them into the mold of my feet. For the most part they're very comfortable. And I noticed that my feet have gotten wider since wearing these type of shoes now. And I don't have pain like I used like a year a half ago. We'll definitely keep buying the issues from here on out.. I would recommend these shoes to anybody that needs to change their shoe lineup to help their feet become healthy again.

Amazing comfort

I continue to be impressed with peluva. I now have 9 various pairs. My foot pain is gone and they are amazingly comfortable. So recommend!

So comfy

When I first put these on, they seemed a little stiff, but within 2 days they got really flexible and soft. I already wear a lot of minimal barefoot shoes, and these are very nice for walking on pavement. I would love if they also had shoes with no cushion. Because I definitely prefer the other shoes for walking on grass and ground.

I really like this shoe!

This is my second pair and this design is easier to put on although the first pair was not hard to put on after I got used to them. I have had multiple toe injuries and if I can get my toes in them easily anyone can.

Helping my feet to get back to preforming as they were designed to. Wear all day as my house shoes. Toes starting to realign. Especially my big toe that was turning inward. Thanks Peluva.

it's going be hard to ever wear regular shoes again!!

I'm going to to be short and sweet! these shoes are amazing!! I didn't want to spend this much but I was curious and my feet have found their home, the sport shoe is so supportive and I feel great wearing them. I have bought a second pair the one good for hiking and they are just as comfortable! I'm already eyeing up a third pair!

Im very pleased

Im a personal trainer by day and a United Parcel Service (UPS) truck loader at night. Im on my feet alot. When I train I wanted a shoe to help with ground feel and improve my stability. I for sure get the ground feel effect with these shoes. Unfortunately, my ring toe on my right foot is longer than most and doesn't fit comfortably. Other than that I love the design and concept of my Peluva

My new favorite shoes!

I’ve walked over 30,000 steps in my new peluvas, lifted, jumped, and trained in them. These are my favorite shoes - comfortable, toes spread, improved balance and strength. I just bought 3 new pairs including another pair of trainers, slip ons, and tennis court - and of course my wife got a pair as well. Highly recommended!

Legit top tier

I Absolutly love these! I am a person who hates wearing shoes and grew up without them. Moving across the ocean to areas that needed shoes was a struggle because they are so restricting. These shoes fit perfectly and feel like a glove on your feet with almost all the mobility! Get a half size up if you plan to buy but I totally recommend! Gonna get some slide ons later

Felt in my feet work instantly. A little painful but "good" pain. Now need to order some socks to get full experience!
