Great shoe
An amazing shoe that feels great on my feet and completely gets rid of the cramped feeling I get when wearing normal shoes. The only complaint I have with it is that side to side mobility of the toes is almost non-existent, confined within each toe box, as opposed to the up and down toe movement which feels like you're not even wearing a shoe. Also it unfortunately doesn't fit all of my toes length, the first three toes are great but it starts to leave too much room on my ring toes and my pinky toe is almost sliding out of its toe box unless I make a point to slide my feet forward or tie them extra tight. Despite this these are easily the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn, and got me through long nursing shifts with near no foot discomfort.
My feet are in rough shape from the restaurant industry and wanted to try toe shoes, and I chose Peluva because they look cooler and the extra bit of cushion makes all the difference. First thoughts: as someone without using toe stretchers before wearing these, it took a minute to get my toes into each compartment. But once they are on, they do feel incredibly comfortable but they do slightly kind of hurt in a good way as everything stretches out. I wore them all day and once they were off, the difference in how my feet felt was crazy. I wish they made these in a non-slip service industry shoe style! Lol. As far as the company suggesting ordering a half size larger, they do feel half a size larger but it is easy to feel that once your feel start spreading more they will fit like a glove. Definitely loving these and they're worth it
Best shoes I’ve ever worn!
Good shoes, great quality. The toes are difficult to stretch out, but I am sure breaking them in with time will fix that.
Great shoes, they fit like garbage bags. Keeping it fresh and wiggly. Make sure you don’t get in white, the inside of the toes will get brown. Overall good, shipping took to long.
I really enjoy wearing my Peluva's, and use them for virtually every workout!
They weren’t as comfortable without wearing toe socks. It actually hurt a couple of my toes, but using toe socks had helped tremendously. I’ve only worn them for about a week, so I hope in the future, I’m able to slip them on effortlessly. Right now, it’s about 5 minutes to put on both shoes.
My new favorite shoes. I do alternate back to my hiking shoes a couple times a week and when rain or snow but I do enjoy the Strands!
I didn’t know what to expect. I love working out in them. I’ll be ordering pair #2. I like them a lot and they are true to size getting a half size bigger as suggested!
I use these as workout shoes and everyday wear I love them! I’m gonna buy more soon
Feeling new muscles being worked throughout my legs just by walking . It is so important to go slow and work your way up or trust me you will have a whole new dimmension of hurting 😁😁😁
Light weight and comfortable
Wow. I like the fact that each and every toe has its own toe box. It was like my feet woke up. I was getting more information on how I was standing, walking and moving. Other parts of my body upstream hurt less.
Good fit and very comfortable.
The pair I received are great. I use them for the gym. Very Comfortable.
I’ll buy the other brand I was looking at and compare the 2. This shoe hurt my pinky toe while at the gym. I’ll keep these for swimming only
This is the first shoe I’ve been able to just put on and love. No breaking in, just going. This was a great addition to my wellness. Thank you, Peluva!
I have size 17 feet and I'm sad I can't try these out lol. I have flat & huge feet, and have been looking for something that works well for martial arts and running.
I put them on every day, day n night. So comfortable. I would have to say it’s real easy to put holes in
extremely comfortable. Lightweight. I have not had them that long and so I cannot comment on durability. Only knock is the price. If these shoes last a long time, I will gladly eat my words... and the shoes!
I love them they help ground me spiritually and correct my toes from being squished all these years
Love them
Great shoe for moving around outdoors. They’re super comfy with just enough sole that your feet don’t hurt. They aren’t for wet climates though as I found even light rain would cause my feet to become soaked easily. I would highly recommend.
