My husband loves these!

I bought these as a Cheistmas gift, and my husband was so excited! He has enjoyed them and they are a comfortable fit. He likes the style of them as well.

First time purchase, very happy

I've owned this type of shoe before but first time for Peluva. No break-in required for me but note the suggestion to order slightly larger than your normal size. I was glad I did. I like the more traditional sneaker styling as well.

These socks fit perfectly, and are both soft yet provide support.

Wow!

Great quality and design. I took a few weeks to slowly get used to them. Overall they’re comfortable and I can definitely tell the difference in my two feet. These are really making a difference!

Thank you for existing as a company! You've changed my life and allthough I sometimes get weird stares where ever I go, I feel a sense of connection to my feet and the ground beneath me like never before!

The ShiZ!!

These shoes are a game changer in life. I hope Peluva is a lasting company and start designing more versions of these wonderful shoes. Im hinting more at winter wear than anything else. Beach wear would be another avenue. I love these shoes, especially at the gym. They are a true game changer! Ten out of five stars easily.

A good surprise

Was not sure when I bought the shoes if they would fit my feet. It was a good surprise. A great buy and good quality. Make sure you have the right socks, too. My little toe doesn’t always go into the little toe pocket but all the other toes fit. And if you have a hang nail watch out. It hurts like hell.

Thank you, Jessica. We’re glad this was a good surprise and that you enjoy the quality and fit. Appreciate your note about the little toe pocket.

Feet feel healthy

I do get a lot of comments about the way the shoes look but I don’t care because they feel great. I feel productive wearing them. I like the mesh because they breath so well

Great shoes

I recommend these over Hoka's anyday. I would like to try the socks though. I bought two pair recently but no socks came with them.

Thanks, Brian. Glad you prefer these over your Hoka shoes and hope you find socks that match your needs.

Uncomfortable at first but give it time

When I first put them on I thought I had purchased a size too small. Everything I read on the site said they are supposed to fit “like a glove.” After about three days, they felt good. I don’t know if it’s placebo effect or not, my feet and ankles feel more stable just after a week.

Thank you, David. We are glad the fit improved after a few days of wear and that you feel more stable in them.

Definitely Eases the Transition

I am new to the Pleura brand but always feel better wearing socks with shoes. Initially they were a bit tricky getting around each toe but I think it is actually very good for my toe movement to separate them a bit, both in the socks and the shoes.They definitely add to the comfort level of the shoes and make the adjustment from traditional tennis shoes much better.

Thanks, Martha. Great to hear the socks helped ease your transition and improved your toe movement and comfort.

12 Month Review

Twelve months in with my Strands. Absolutely the best shoes I've ever worn in my life. The only complaint I have is with durability. As in seen in the photo, I've completely worn through the insole all the way to the outer rubber. Granted, I wear this pair five days a week, eight hours a day, which in and of itself is a testament to their quality of performance. I would ideally prefer not to buy a new pair every year, but I absolutely will if I have to. I'm not exaggerating when I say they have changed my life for the better. Constant, daily foot pain disappeared as soon as I stared using them. Might try out the Strand ATR next to see how they compare.

Thanks, Nicholas. Love that you’ve had a positive experience over 12 months and that they changed your life for the better. Your durability feedback is appreciated.

As comfortable as advertised

The fit is exactly as I expected from the size of my regular shoes. The comfort is excellent even before an adjustment period. The traction is just right. The 'laces' are both as tight and as flexible as needed to keep the shoes snug at all times. I use these as my everyday shoes in a walking-heavy city and haven't suffered any of the foot fatigue I used to attribute to walking too much when in reality it was my old shoes causing it (pretty nice ones too, in one of the major brands regaled for their comfort). Highly recommend for anyone on the fence about minimalist shoes.
