Genuinely Perfect Trainers
I bought a pair of Peluva Strand Lightweight trainers last year and proceeded to break them in, I thought they took a little getting used to, and yes they ran a little small, which was unfortunate. And they didn’t ship them to me in Scotland (they only go to the USA, folks! So make sure if you’re from anywhere else that you know someone in the US to send them to you!)
Anyway. I loved them. I wore them every day, for walking (I had torn my ACL, MCL and Meniscus in my right knee playing rugby, and could barely walk - I heard about barefoot shoes for walking and eventually running to help fix injuries) then I started a running challenge, where I ran a minimum of 5km every single day for 50 days. The challenge ended up going to 111 days, and I ran over 700km in that time. Insane for a single pair of shoes. Need new pair now because I ran holes into the bottom. But they have served me well, and I can only hope Peluva can start to ship to the UK! I can’t go back to regular running shoes now! No way. These helped with knee pain, posture issues, weight. They’re awesome.
What a review. We’re so glad they helped you through recovery and all those miles. Thank you for sharing your story.

Great workout shoes
Alwats had my eyes on peluva. These pair been wearing for the past 3 weeks while I do my variable resistance workout 4 times a week. Already can see ny toes spreading on their own. Awesome stuff. Looking to get a pair for running. I have a 5k run on pavement wondering which peluva fits the bill.
Patrick, this is so great to hear. We’re glad they’re helping your workouts and toe spread already. For pavement running, please reach out to our email support at support@peluva.com and we’ll help point you to the best option.

Dock’s review!
Cool boots, great fit, comfortable, ultra light all while properly splaying my toes! I have worn other toe shoes, but whenever I wear any of my Peluvas they seem to regularly trigger oohs & ahs , complimentary comments, from interested inquiry. I would dig it if you made these boots in a “sand” color. Cheers - Dock
Thanks for sharing this. That color comparison is really helpful feedback for us.

These 5 toe minimalist shoes are great, very comfortable, and the quality of their fit & construction really impressed me. I do recommend if anyone is seeking to purchase minimalist footwear and know not where they might find a quality shoe, look no further; these shoes are amazing. I bought the brown pair and will be purchasing the black pair in a couple of months. I hope this review do help you with your decision. Beblessed all!!!!
This is beautiful feedback, Laurie. We’re so glad they’re helping your whole body feel more connected.

A great idea
Making a five finger boot is a grand idea. I have guided hunters for 40 years in Montana. I can’t wait to try my new Paulina’s. Walk about 10 miles a day for about 40 days. Have worn five finger shoes for 10 years And Paluvas when they were first made. They are wonderful. A little softer ride and the boots feel wonderful
My other first pair of Peluva shoes (yes I picked two for my first purchase). I bought these to replace my Vibram Spidreons that have already run out their useful life. I knew two things going into this purchase. First, that I was purchasing a quality shoe at a great price that supported my barefoot shoe style preferences. Second, I was prepared for what would feel much more like a "normie" sole compared to my preference for minimalist shoes. What I like is the overall quality of the shoe. It's a proper fit based on size recommendations. I also like the nice option to be able to hook my lace to the shoe using it's clever design. Much better than Velcro fasteners I'm used to using.
The sole is great. Zero drop. But much thicker than I'm used to wearing. They were easy to put on, feel good to walk in, but when I went to push the brake pedal on the car, I immediately missed not being able to feel the pedal with my feet. Not a bad thing, just different. For the quality and fit, something I'll be able to overlook and get used to over time. Can never give up my minimal sole options, but will keep my Peluva in the mix as one of my favorite casual shoes for everyday wear.
Thank you for such thoughtful feedback, Michael. We’re really glad the fit and quality stood out, even with the thicker sole adjustment.

Quality shoe with a great look
Well, I've finally made the call to try my first pairs of Peluva shoes. I've worn Vibrams for years exclusively. The Aspen boots drew me in. They arrived quickly and exceeded expectations. Probably the most substantial sole I've worn in a long time, Not a bad thing, as the use case here calls for rugged durability. So taking some getting used to, but I can tell I'll have these for a long time without the usual concerns of the uppers coming unglued from the soles of my usual minimalist shoes. It's good to have options and this is definitely a stylish one.
So glad they exceeded expectations, Michael. Love hearing they feel durable and stylish right out of the box.

Very comfy
I had to reorder a half size goin and these got very well. No slipping and they got like a glove. No pain in my bunion area at all. I normally wear a size 7 so I have half size larger. Great choice! I have a torn meniscus and wearing these takes pressure off my knee. They seem to be helping my walking.
