Small toe slot.
Maybe my foot /toes are not normal - but my small toe doesn’t fit in to the slot. It’s to short.

Maybe my foot /toes are not normal - but my small toe doesn’t fit in to the slot. It’s to short.
I'll be straight, I've been wearing toe shoes via Vibrams for over a decade. I decided to give these a shot because meh, why not? PLEASANTLY SURPRISED! These things are BEYOND comfortable and the sizing system was super easy. I'll be getting the black variant once they re-up.
So far feel great. I am testing today at work where I will be on concrete for hours. People at work have said they look awesome better than they thought. As always good job to Mark for his products. Thanks David
I was pleasantly surprised by these shoes. I've worn other "toe shoes" in the past and have liked them, but sometimes wished they had a bit more cushion underfoot, especially for longer walks. These fit that wish perfectly. They have some cushion but still allow you to feel the ground well enough. They are light weight and comfortable. I used the foot/size size calculator and and it was pretty much dead on accurate. I would say that while I can wear toe socks with them, they are more comfortable without. I think I might want to go up half a size if I want to wear socks with them all the time. Over all I'm quite pleased with them!
The shoes were fantastic I love them very much I wear them all the time thank God my son has bigger feet than me cuz he wants them
Love the concept and love the feel when I walk in them. For Frodo feet they run a bit small.
I'm willing to do a testimonial with my story. Since having knee surgery in 2019 I lived with chronic knee pain for years. The short of it is that the peluvas fixed the mechanics of how I walk and now my knee doesn't hurt. I only wear these shoes now, this is my third pair and I will likely be buying more
I have been wearing KK and Vibram toe shoes since 2019, after a couple of years in standard walking shoes walking with blisters sore knees, hips, and back the toe shoes cleared all that up, The pelicans shoes are very comfortable and look good, I’m anxious to see how they stand up to the others. So far they are doing great
I've been into minimalist footwear for a long time and I can attest that Peluvas are the best of the best for everyday use. Vibrams are great for lifting but do not offer enough cushioning for concrete. Altras are great for running but do not provide any toe spacing. Peluvas are the best of both worlds for everyday comfort and walking
Excellent for walking ,running, even on trails
Bought them for my son, he loves them!
It is like nothing I’ve ever worn before. The freedom and comfort is so unexpected that it is like learning to walk all over again. I have no regrets… it was interesting to direct each toe into its own compartment after spending decades clumped together. Well done! I am quite impressed.
Just as I was hoping: lightweight, just thick enough of a sole to walk on streets without punishing my joints, and very comfortable.
Best shoe I ever owned I will never go without another pair on standby in my life!!!!
I've only worn them a handful of times. My feet love them. My brain still hasn't gotten use to them though. All of a sudden for the first time in my life I have to pay attention to my toes. I truly think this a great design and believe the shoes will help strengthen my feet and calves. Great product
So far going well. I had to return/exchange to get size right. That process was straightforward and simple and I am now convinced these fit and move with me right.
pretty great. maybe needed some instructions on cleaning protocol (i didn’t read the manual that came with it). also the 8.5x11 sheet of paper to size foot got it wildly wrong so had a couple of exchanges before getting it right
I started using toe socks after getting cherry tomato sized blisters. I was only walking 3 miles a day but I just could not find the right pair of shoes. I decided it was time to splurge and try these out after I began looking into toe spacers. I'm so glad I got these instead. The first time I wore them I took a nap and forgot I was still wearing them later. The next day I decided they felt well enough to try a walk. ZERO BLISTERS. No pinching, no chafing, nothing! I will never wear another brand of shoe. I can't wait to try the additional styles of Pelovas for every day wear, not just the gym. It's only been about a week and I can slide my feet right in without adjusting my toes. For sizing, I just measured my feet and followed the size chart. Perfect fit. Hope to see water/boat shoes and kid sizes in the future!!
Never tried minimalist shoes but I actually enjoy the way these feel when I walk
Love them !! Been working out in them !! They are perfect!!!
I’ve been trying to get back into running forever.. always have instant shin pain. Doc said it hip mobility and ankle mobility issues.. did the exercises to fix and still had pain running Thought it could be form issues but I couldn’t get mid-strike running in normal shoes Bought 2 different types of shoes, still pain Bought Peluva and was running the day they came in and feels so much easier to run with mid-strike form. I also have bunions, which I thought would be a concern but they feel great
Surprisingly SUPER COMFORTABLE! I even ordered more.
Love them to death!!
Love them, I have very high arches, rods on either side of my right ankle bone, and a bunion, I initially had gotten an 11.5, men's were too big, I am normally an 11.5 to 12 women's, I sent them back and Peluva was quick to pay the return. Then I ordered a size 11, put them on my feet, and oh my! What comfort! stomped around the house with them very pleased, my feet didn't hurt! The following day I went for a walk 2 miles and found the little toe on my, right foot kept touching the base of the toe hold. Upon checking my e-mail, I found that Peluva was sending me some toe sox even though I had not checked the box . Then Peluva again took the time to discuss my particular problem as I also have a very narrow foot. I shall now be ordering a size 10.5 and see if that fully takes care of my problem This company goes above and beyond to make sure that the best outcome is for the client. My new best shoe company is now Peluva. They have a lifetime happy individual with me. Thank you Peluva for your caring concern.
