Men's Strand Lightweight Trainer

I ordered a size 10 and needed a 10.5. First, the customer service was outstanding. Quick exchange and I got my shoes. I’ve worn Five Fingers for years and this is nice change. Peluva fits like a glove and if you’re someone new to “toe shoes” this shoe is a great one to start with. There is comfort and support throughout. The padding is soft and its improved my walking and those micro muscles! I walk about 60-80 miles a month depending.

*I wore the pad of the shoe down to a hole after 4 months! I reached out wondering my options as I love the shoes but expected more time and was unsure if I should purchase again. PELUVA SENT ME A REPLACEMENT PAIR. Look people I have worked in customer service for years- I did not expect that. I was looking for an option on another shoe they offer or maybe some sort of 20% off. No they went above and beyond, it’s a one time courtesy and I am so grateful. They also informed me about some other styles that have thicker bottoms. I will be choosing one of those options in the future (Strand ATR and Strand Golf).

I have worn barefoot shoes, wide toebox for two years now and loved it. However, I always noticed a feeling of being somewhat tired and my lower back calf muscle. When I got up and walked around, it always took a few seconds to get going and get rid of that pain. This is my first pair of toe shoes. I’m here to tell you within 30 minutes of walking in the shoes that pain disappeared and it stayed gone. I find it a little tricky to get my toes in the right spot and even harder to put it on the toe socks lol I’m only 48 so no I’m not that old that I can’t do it. I love my shoes looking to buy another pair from Peluva soon. Thanks for helping me out Peluva!

For years I struggled with finding good toe shoes that would match my needs and be good enough to use on a day to day basis, but Peluva took that problem away. This is my second pair I’ve bought In the last month and I wear them almost all day, everyday. Extremely comfortable, super easy to wash and take care of, incredibly easy to take on and off unlike other brands, and they look amazing. I get compliments in my gym and in the dojo for how minimalist and clean they look, which seems rare for a style of shoe that isn’t exactly common to see yet. One problem I see with these shoes is the bottom of the toe seems to be peeling just slightly. This hasn’t affected performance or comfortability, however I’ve only had them for about two weeks, so it can be an issue down the line.

Only thing I do wish every shoe came with was the nice shoe box… yeah you read that right. My first pair came in a shoe box that was basically a pull out drawer that I could stack in my closet. A super convenient and nice addition to these shoes. When the second pair came with a standard shoe box I was a bit disappointed, so I hope they change this in the future so that all shoes come with it!

Absolutely love these shoes, 10/10 for me, I will be purchasing a lot more in the future.

I’ve tried a lot of athletic shoes, and some wide-toe box shoes, but nothing compares to Peluvas. These are hands down the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn. They’re perfect for everything: running, boxing, lifting, walking, and just everyday wear.

I even find myself wearing them around the house because they’re that comfortable. The sole is the perfect balance—thick enough to cushion walking on concrete, but still lightweight and flexible so they never feel bulky. I also have to say, they’re surprisingly stylish for a minimalist shoe. I’ve already gotten two other people hooked on them!

I honestly thought it would take me longer to adjust to the toe separation, but I got used to them quickly, and now I don’t even want to wear anything else. Get a size larger than you usually wear. I'm a size 9, and the 9.5 was ok, but the size 10 is perfect.

I initially bought them because I was dealing with foot pain, and I’m thrilled to say that pain is now almost completely gone. If your feet are hurting or you're just looking for the most versatile, comfortable, functional shoe—you have to try Peluvas. Total game changer.
