★★★★★ Barefoot Comfort – these shoes make me smile!! ★★★★★
The Peluva Strand Sport Mesh shoes are fabulous! They’re breathable, lightweight, and perfect for everyday (I went up one full size). The fit feels natural – so natural I even forget to take them off when I get home – and the cushioning keeps my feet comfortable all day. After a few days of wearing these shoes I realized my daily foot soreness was gone! I love how you feel the ground and I seek natural terrain over hardscape to get the feeling that makes me smile – the nuances of the grass, dirt, roots, rocks… is supreme – a natural foot massage! Peluva is a perfect choice all around and I highly recommend them to everyone. I will get more and for now also love my Peluva Apollo Golf shoes.
We’re so happy to hear how much you’re enjoying the Strand Sport Mesh! That natural terrain “foot massage” is one of our favorite features too. Thanks for such a detailed and thoughtful review, more adventures ahead!

Came pretty quick and they're light weight on your feet.
This is a wonderful shoes because it gives you the feeling of the five finger low profile shoes. We’re just enough padding for your heel to make it a perfect all-around trainer.
That’s amazing to hear, Cedric. So glad they’re giving you that comfort and stability you’ve been looking for.

Love These Shoes!
Originally, I ordered a size 10.5 which is my typical size. I know they are supposed to be snug, but these felt too tight. I gave it 3 days to see if it would improve and decided to exchange for a half size up to 11. The exchange process and customer service were fantastic. The 11s are working much better for me, and I enjoy wearing them with toe socks or just barefoot! They also look great for a “five-finger” shoe. If you’re interested in trying the “five-finger” minimalist look, I definitely recommend Peluva!
Appreciate the detailed review, Colin. Happy to hear the size exchange worked out and that you’re enjoying the fit and style!

Love these shoes
I had problems with my toes keeping them separated. These shoes have definitely helped with that problem and are very comfortable to wear work out with

Athletic Perfection
The strand sport mesh is a perfect, lightweight, foot shaped, flexible yet stable, opportunity to work on your foot health while improving your overall movement patterns. I couldn't be happier with the product. Sizing up half a size was needed.
Great to hear you’re loving your new workout shoes. That comfort difference is exactly what we aim for.

This is my 3rd pair and my boyfriend's 1st pair!
I absolutely LOVE Peluva shoes! I bought my first pair in Dec, 2nd pair in March and now my boyfriend and I have matching pairs in Nov. I am a fitness instructor who teaches me kickboxing, yoga, boot camp and salsa dance in these shoes. I also walk and weight train in them. I will never buy "normal"sneakers again.
Glad you found the right size and that they’re working well. Thanks for the tip for others on sizing up!

Wear them daily almost all day!
Hello,
Thanks so much for making such a great shoe. They are amazingly comfortable and they are also now, my number one shoes in the closet. My feet and ankles have improved in every way. Will buy my second pair as soon as I am able to.
Awesome to hear they’ve become your go-to shoes. Thanks for sharing how much they’ve helped your feet and ankles!

Long index toe...
Great feel. Love the individual toe movement and the feel of walking around almost barefoot with the exception of the protection of the soles of my feet, which is reassuring. I had to get one full size up to fit my long index toe. Now the shoes fit like a glove.
Appreciate that, Brian. It’s awesome they’ve topped your list after 13 years of 5-toe shoes!

Perfect trainer for calves and toe separation
Love these shoes, they fit perfect, and after years of my pinky toes being stuck to my other toes I’m finally feeling separation. Also feeling some muscles in my calves I haven’t felt since training bare foot on Muy Tai mats. Great trainer shoe at imitating a bare foot experience.
That’s awesome, Michael! We’re really glad to hear these are helping with toe separation and muscle engagement. Thanks for sharing your experience - keep enjoying that barefoot feel!

I wear a 10.5 in my everyday shoes. I had to order the palavas in 11.5
Very happy so far. I have fasciitis in my left foot in 2 weeks the peluvas i have already made a significant difference in the pain reduction in my left foot.
I have been dealing with pain in my left foot for a year and a half now with no resolve. The peluvas were a last effort before getting a cortisone shot. If my recovery continues I may be able to fully heal my left foot by just changing to a better shoe.
Very happy so far. Thank you Peluva
That’s an incredible turnaround, Brian. So glad the shoes are helping relieve your plantar fasciitis. Wishing you a full recovery and continued comfort!

Best shoes EVER!!
I am 64 years old and before I bought these shoes, my feet were done for the day by about 3 o’clock in the afternoon I could not stand on my feet any longer. Now I am good for the entire day no matter what’s on the agenda hiking climbing you name it I can do it now!
Patti, that’s a fantastic transformation. So happy the shoes help you power through the entire day. Keep doing what you love, pain-free.

My shoes
I love all 3 pairs I have. I will continue to wear them more than other shoes. However I would like you to consider the materials you use for shoes and socks. Also any plans for ones that are more geared to winter and harsh conditions?
Sounds like you’ve found your all-day go-to! Appreciate you sharing, Scott.

So far, so great
I am very pleasantly surprised how much I really enjoy these shoes. I have had other “toe” shoes in the past (Fila) which I loved but were nowhere as comfortable and natural feeling as these shoes. There was a learning curve getting my toes to cooperate but using my toe socks made a huge difference. I am already considering a second pair so I am not wearing the same blue shoes everyday.
That’s great to hear, Dan! Happy the comfort and fit exceeded your expectations—and toe socks definitely make all the difference.

Looove these so much!
I love the all black that I got, yet another great buy! My normal size in Peluva shoes is a women’s 11 or men’s 9.5. I went with a men’s this time and had to size up to a 10 because the 9.5’s were too small. So comfortable and can’t say enough good things about this brand!
