These are the BEST barefoot shoes I’ve ever worn. Unless you come up with a Winter boot, I will never buy from another Shoe Company.

Poor quality. Toes were messed up
Poor quality. Toes were messed up
I received my Peluva's about 10 January 2025. Since then I have logged 574 miles walking on asphalt. So far the only notable wear is on the middle toes. It took a few weeks to break in, but now they are very comfortable for my average 3 mile walks. We'll see how many more miles I get. I only wear these for my walks.
For a couple years, I've had a neuropathy in my ankle and did extensive muscle stretching and work on my calf with little to no improvement. My trainer suggested trying a five finger sneaker and within three days the neuropathy started to go away and after a couple of weeks of using a pair of these amazing shoes, the pain is gone. It's so important to get your toes working as part of long-term mobility, thank you for your amazing technology.
I love these shoes! I purchased the Stand light weight trainer. They are fantastic. I walk the dog at least two miles per day in them and where them all day working from home and running around town. The activation of my foot and ankle muscles is pretty shocking. The style I purchased is to casual for work travel but maybe my next pair will be more professional and I can wear these all the time.
I love the trainers once I get my toes properly inserted in the shoe. I only used them indoors, they are to soft and not enough support for outdoor activities. However I would recommend them for anyone training indoors and especially for yoga or palate.
I’ve been wearing Peluva shoes for a while now, and I absolutely love them! As someone who has been transitioning to minimalist footwear, these shoes have been a game changer. The individual toe compartments take a little getting used to, but once you adjust, they feel incredibly freeing and comfortable. I no longer feel like my toes are cramped in traditional shoes. The flexibility of the sole is perfect for my daily activities, and I’ve even used them for light workouts and casual walks. They provide just the right amount of support without feeling heavy or restrictive. Plus, the design is stylish and versatile enough to wear with almost any outfit—whether I'm at the gym or running errands. What I love most is how my feet feel after wearing them for a while. I’ve noticed less foot fatigue and more natural movement, which is a big win for me. Overall, Peluva shoes have exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a comfortable, healthy, and stylish alternative to traditional shoes!
Very comfortable
Although I had taken a photo of my feet on your app which said even the smallest pair of your shoes may have been too large, I bought it anyway; and thank god, I did! I’ve been wearing your shoes non-stop every day I don’t want to wear anything else, except for walking barefoot in my garden.
The Peluva has a very comfortable feel, though it was very challenging to put on as my toes are short and angled more than the soe. but I did manage to get them on and walked around, they feel VERY comfortable! I like the shoes very much, I just need to be patient and learn the trick of putting them on!
I bought these shoes recently. I’ve only worn them a few times. They feel very comfortable so far.
My feet are free again This is what footwear is supposed to feel like
So far I love these. Originally I ordered a 12.5 since most of my other shoes are size 12. They were way too big. After checking on my trail shoes, I realized they were size 11.5. I set up a return, which Peluva made very easy. I just had to print out a label, put it on the box, and sit the box on the front porch. Peluva did the pickup schedule. There was an option for them to ship my new pair before receiving the return, so I had the replacement fairly quick. The 11.5 fit perfect with the socks on. Getting the socks on was a struggle at first but I am getting used to it. Putting the shoes on was tedious the first two times, now I can slide them right on. My pinky toe hurt some at the beginning but my toes are getting used to the new positioning. I am planning on buying a pair of the all terrain ones when I can afford to.
Very comfortable Great w Big Toe Flexion and relieving foot tightness
For several years I have struggled with heel pain and I also were steel toe boots everyday. For a while only 3 brands of shoes that would fit but quickly would become uncomfortable. Last year someone gofted me flat shoes for working out and I have heard great things about seperated toe shoes In the past. After watching a video and seeing the sole of these and wanting to rebuild y feet I decided to give it a try. I have been wanting to do extra walking just to feel my feet and toes working again. I am looking forward to buying yhe whole collection because they are that awesome in rebuilding and making want to spend more time on my feet.
These shoes changed my life! Almost had foot and toe pain no, matter how expensive or how much cushioning. Once wore these toe shoes for a few days, my toes stopped hurting and my workouts became more enjoyable. I really love the shoes! Only drawback is they get wet easily in the rain and puddles.
I do like it. It's a hair big, but I am enjoying these. I have been wearing these every chance I get. I may get another pair.
Really great shoes, have to ease into them.
