I really like them!
First time with minimalist shoes or barefoot shoes. First time Peluva customer. I love them. I like this black and yellow style. I love how natural my feet feel and connect with the ground in my stride. I wear them all the time. I fit in the exact same shoe size. I prefer mine with the Peluva toe socks.
Love hearing this! We’re glad your first Peluvas feel natural and connected.

Great shoes!
They feel so natural to walk in. Obviously they don't feel like bare feet, but it's pretty close. I don't feel the constant pressure on my heel like I do in other shoes. When I do put on my old shoes, they feel weird and uncomfortable. It's only been over a week, but I love them.
You will get stares and funny faces when people, especially people you know, notice them. But I see it as a conversation starter.
I decided to buy Peluva's Men's Strand ATR in March 2026 after incurring few injuries from a very strenuous hiking trip wearing a brand new typical hiking shoe. After fully recovered from the injuries I wanted a shoe where my toes stay separate during my entirety of walk or hiking. I stumbled upon the Peluva's TV ad and decided to try their shoe. After I bought them I want walking 3 times so far on 5 miles in a paved trail. I think it's a keeper and enjoy wearing this new type of shoe. Yes getting each toes into the shoe 1st was bit difficult as I have worn typical shoes for so many years. Peluva's vdo on how to wear their shoe was helpful. I am now getting little better everytime to get the shoes on my foot. Thanks for your unique product.
Thanks for sharing your experience—we’re glad the videos helped and that you’re enjoying the toe separation on your walks.

Better Foot Health & Better Fit
My feet are healthier and happier after using these Strand ATRs every day while walking my dogs in the desert. In the last 9 months, I've bought 3 pairs, and they are all still in great shape. I prefer the ATR's to the Mesh model, but all are worth changing from traditional athletic trainers.
These shoes make me feel like never sitting down again. So great to hike and do yard work. Took so much stress out of my legs and back. Would gladly buy again
Love hearing this! We’re glad they’ve been great for hiking, yard work, and all-day comfort.

I love these shoes
Since I started wearing this, I've had alot of foot and leg pain lessen. Like I have a heel bone spur that every morning hurt so bad I could walk. And was in a medical boot for a week before I start wearing these . There still a dull ach over the spot. But no crippling pain. My muscle in my legs feel tired like you've walked a marathon but not not achy. Can't wait to get another pair.
We’re so glad they’ve helped lessen your foot and leg pain. Hope you love your next pair just as much.

Another great Peluva product
I received my Strand ATRs just before leaving for 2 back-to-back Las Vegas conventions. I logged between 10,000 and 14,000 steps a day for 5 straight days. I live Peluvas. They are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn. I now have 5 pairs.
That’s amazing! We’re glad they kept you comfortable through all those convention steps.

5 Stars
I have been enjoying them so far. The only thing which is not their fault is i might need a bigger size. Now that my toes have room to move and stretch they are touching the front.
I was skeptical when I first received these shoes especially when I put them on and they felt so rough in between my toes. It felt like there was a seem in between every toes that was just going to rub my feet raw and cause more pain than anything. I decided to not wear them and instead ordered 3 pair of the 5 toe socks. Once the socks arrived I put the shoes on and went for my first workout. They still felt uncomfortable for the first15-20 minutes. After that I was used to moving around and didn’t think about them again. I have worn them for every workout since and find them very comfortable to walk and move around in. They are light weight and I especially like the little bit of cushion for the sole of the shoe. I have bad knees and one is a replacement so that cushion helps out and is more comfortable than having nothing between my feet and the ground. I am happy that I ordered a pair of these shoes and gave them a try. I will definitely order another pair at some point.
That’s amazing to hear! We’re glad they’re making such a difference on your hikes.

2nd pair of ATRs - love these
I have a black pair and now this pair - these shoes are awesome. Super comfortable, great traction, great grip - I run, train, lift and run errands in these.
Great quality, comfort and fit - be sure for guys to order up 1/2 size.
Love these shoes. The only problem i had was with getting the right size, the exchanges were smooth and quick.
I've had mine now for about 3 weeks. Feet are stronger and has not gotten fatigued , thou week one my legs felt like we did a marathon. And the pain I was having from a heel spur rubbing my Achilles has about vanished. A little funny side note I had a student ask about my shoes and why they are called P.E. Luva.
Will be getting another pair soon just need the choose which ones to get.
That’s amazing! We’re honored Peluva has become your go-to brand.

Great Upgrade To My Foot Health
I have worn five-finger toes shoes almost exclusively for the past ten years. This is my first pair of Peluvas and I am completely sold on the brand. The fit is spot on. The quality is exceptional. And the comfort is next level.
Love these shoes and concept of these shoes. My only feedback is the material on the inside where the toes go in are rough material . I have to wear socks or I can’t wear the shoes at all.
Thanks for sharing this—we’re glad you love the concept and comfort overall. We appreciate the note on the material around the toes.

Their best shoe!!
I have a couple pairs of peluvas (the strand, active slip on, and just recently got a pair of the ATR). To be clear all peluva products are great, but the ATR takes it to a whole new level. The stability and comfort it provides compared to the regular strand is quite noticeable, and the regular strand is already awesome, but I honestly feel like I can do more in the ATR. The zip tie design is also a nice plus
