I Love these!
Let me start by saying I grew up in Singapore and the U.S.A and I was nearly barefoot growing up overseas. I love how these two shoes make me feel closer to the ground and give me that near feeling back again. It helps with my toes a lot and muscles in my feel and legs. I got to consumes with sneakers that I finally was able to come across something like this and this is now my everyday shoe. I use it from walking to working out to jogging. Even working towards my first 5k in them and I love it. I am a true size 11 1/2 and I know some of the comments say it’s runs small or big and I did size up on my first pair and bought a 12. I didn’t return it because I was just too excited and it felt great just a bit of wiggle room but nothing bad. My next pair I plan on buying is the winter boots for the same purpose and will definitely be buying 11 1/2 and true size. I think they are meant to be worn snug but a little room is fine just spends on how you feel. Other than that they do attract a lot of attention but who gives a fuck. Makes me feel happy and foot health matters. I got the sport mesh and will be buying a few more pairs of the other versions definitely. I can’t wait to see what else they come up with for men style. I also would say walk in them a lot before you jog and let your feet adjust you’ll feel muscles you never felt before but that’s good. Last thing I love how it makes my toes feel even better and better every time I wear it and take it off it’s like I have more control and keeps them apart that it feels so good and I don’t want to go back and wear my sneakers anymore. I love the black on black I’ll definitely review more of these shoes as I get them.

I Love my new shoes
Enjoy the Freedom
1st time wearing toe socks/shoes & I can say that I love the freedom of my toes having separation. I like being barefoot when possible so my Peluva’s give that feeling and comfort.
Fitting and Breaking In
Be sure to access videos on how to initially slip in and to exercise patience on the fit.
First Pair
Took a couple of days to get use to, get my feet feel and toes feel great.
Finally found relief!
I have struggled finding comfortable shoes to wear since being diagnosed with avascular necrosis of both navicular bones 14 years ago. I’ve been wearing these shoes to my 12 hour shifts at the hospital for the last month, and I can honestly say that I’ve never felt better. My legs don’t feel so fatigued and I’m able to stop-and-go more smoothly and with no pain. I did start off wearing the socks, but it made my toes uncomfortable. Since going barefoot, I bought some arm ‘n hammer shoe spray for that post-shift stench, and I genuinely have no complaints. Looking forward to my second pair to wear around the house! Thank you to the minds that put time into figuring out how to help us use our feet the way they should be used!
Extremely Comfortable Run
I have had foot pain while running ever since i broke my foot in high school 15 years ago. Since i made the switch my foot pain has essentially stopped. I've enjoyed running more since I've gotten these shoes than i ever have before.
Great pair of shoes.
For me these are very good shoes. I don't wear the toe socks with them but that's partially due to my toes. So without the toe socks the size i picked fits perfectly. Also when I workout it helps keep me aware of the full foot being on the platform or ground depending on exercises so I can make sure im not losing form. People who see them ask about it and I always recommend these.
Great Product
I am enjoying these shoes, they allow me to do my workouts in a way that don’t make my feet feel uncomfortable/cramped . At first I was hesitant but I am glad that I made the decision to buy them.
Phenomenal!
Love these! Had to exchange for a bigger size since my second toe is longer than my big toe. Once I got the bigger size, it was on! My second toe is nice and snugged and I can walk freely with no aches on both of my second toes. I definitely will be getting another pair!
Shoes
So far so good. Still getting used to them and getting my toes to slide in properly, but they have felt good so far. Probably will get a second pair soon.
Game Changer - Highly recommended!
I love the way these shoes feel on my feet when I'm training. You should def try these out!
Game changer.
I've worn "barefoot" style shoes for over a year now: zero drop, wide toe box, minimal stack height...but something about these peluva's with the toes being continually separated just changes things- for the better. I've worn these nearly everyday since purchasing (aside from when I am at work) and they're breaking in nicely. I would recommend to anyone that's even thinking about them. I had a slight hiccup with the sizing, but exchange was easy and once I receive my proper fit, they have been a dream.
Love them!
Love them, fit great, definitely go up a half size bigger!!
Well made
They're good shoes, they run really short so get at least one size up

The best shoes I have ever owned.
Astounded!
I was never big on these types of shoes, until I looked into every single thing I could do to improve my overall condition towards breaking a cycling record at 62 years old. That meant looking into the best ways to recover from hard workouts. One of those was foot recovery. I've been following Mark for decades and when I saw he was touting the Peluvas, I thought I'd try them. Now I can't take them off! Between my Lake cycling shoes, Theragun. Power Plate roller, and Peluvas, my feet have never felt better. When I break the record this year, not if, Peluva will have played a part in that win!

I like the shoes! They are comfortable and provide a bit more padding on the sole. Was hoping for it to be a little less, but it does keep me out of small puddles. Shoes are definitely not waterproof, but they dry fast. I will probably slowly replace my entire wardrobe to this brand.
Wanted to not like them
When I ordered and received the size 14 I was thrilled but they were too tight and hurt I sent back and tried the 15 which I’ve never wore being a 14 most my life so I was waiting to try them on not like them and send back for a refund The 15 fit like a glove pun intended and I love these shoes and will most likely buy more in the near future Thank you peluva for working with me to find a size that fits
1 Star
Terrible purchase. Trying to get each toe into the intended opening or slot at the bottom of shoe is beyond frustrating. Poor design. Material around toe opening would 'flap' around and make getting toes placed probably beyond problematic. I thru in Trash
Better than others I’ve tried
So far these have been amazing. I am slowly working my way up to a longer walk in them, however I have worn them all day at work and feet feel amazing. So happy to have given Peluva a chance
