Most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. After the 2nd day of wearing these I don't really like wearing my everyday work shoes. Going to buy a second darker pair for work next month.
It took me three different sizes to find the correct one; the option for unlimited returns is a must-have. The app's picture utility is a great idea, but it failed to detect the correct size by two full sizes. Once I got the right size for my square-shaped feet, everything fell into place. Getting the shoes on is a challenge at first, but the more you wear them, the easier it gets as years of toe cramping are undone. I’ve used other barefoot shoes before, but the individual toe slots provide the closest feeling to being truly barefoot. They are incredibly comfortable and feel like a pair of well-loved, beat-up shoes that fit like a glove because they’ve been molded to your foot shape. They are very lightweight, but because the construction is unusual, I wonder how long they will last given my 'shoe-destroying' physique and pronation issues. So far, they have been well worth the wait and the trial-and-error process.
Very stylish fit like a glove
These are the bomb
Great shoe! I can already tell my feet are getting stronger!
I really like the shoes, very comfortable light and good for working out and running
These are objectively a strange looking shoe. I knew they would be but in person man they're odd. That being said I love wearing them. They do take a bit of getting used too but after a few days you get the hang of how to put them on. These are my everyday shoe for just going to the store or working out. They're a little thin on the sole which that's by design but for me personally they're not good for hiking for that reason. I step on a tree root or a rock I really feel it. I prefer my Ascics for trails or even just jogging. Other than that they're great they're super lightweight and after a little while you almost forget you even have them on. They're odd but I love them
I wasn't sure what to expect, but these felt comfortable to me the first time I put them on. Of course I had to get my toes to seperate, but once they were on, they felt great. I've been walking around the house in them daily and started my jump rope sessions with them today. So far so good. I did wear them to grab some hardware and multiple people stopped me to ask me about them. I wear a size 11, so I went up a 1/2 size. My big toes feel right at the end of the shoe, so I'll see if they expand as they break in. Don't think I can wear socks with this size, but I could be wrong.
I will say they run small, I had to change them for a bigger size. I took a few weeks to get used to wearing them before writing my review of them. I like the way they feel I'm using my for around the house and for workout shoes.
I liked them so much. I really enjoy when I'm wearing them. I'll buy it again
This is my third pair of Peluvas and I love them all. These shoes help me improve my posterior chain, stability, and posture. Thank you Peluva!
Fits tight at first but once it's broken in, it's fine. Great for the gym.
Surprisingly comfortable and provides a great workout experience.
Quality looks greate, specifically the bottom of the shoe, they r a little expensive, regarding the materials, good quality but nothing different than the usual (i think).
Love my shioes
I am a huge fan. The shoes are so comfortable and light. I have long been a five finger shoe guy but the quality of other brands are quite terrible and fall apart after just a few months. These feel so much better definitely excited.
I love them. It is my second time i bought them. Perfect!

I love the way they feel while taking a walk or going shopping. They absolutely conform to the shape and change of form to your feet. The toes are perfect for that crouch to happen a little easier. I have full control over my walking pattern and will definitely need more!

I walk 5 miles one way to work even in snowy lake tahoe and i must say these really are legit. I was always using barefoot footwear, mainly my Xero D-trail sandals but yea lol i wanted to try these and now i can't go back. I respect the cushion part since im walking on concrete. Thanks Peluva.
Pretty 😎 , they are comfortable and light weight!!
Our household has been with Mark Sisson’s philosophy, books, newsletter and products from the beginning. I’ve met him twice in OKC and listen to him often. We tried an earlier, similar toe shoe and my husband was a big fan. He’s been a wound care and ER physician for 43 years and at 6’5 his feet can hurt! I saw the ads for these shoes and took a leap of faith. Score!! He was delighted! He wore them on Christmas and noticed one of the laces was not properly attached, so he packed them up to exchange them. So easy! They were picked up from our porch and replaced there within three days, and we live out in the middle of nowhere! Very typical of all our interactions with Mark Sisson and his companies. Top quality and professional service service every time. Now it’s my turn…..
So freaking comfortable and natural feeling, and they have enough material on the bottom that you don't feel every little detail. I feel like Im able to walk much more intentionally with these shoes. I ordered the boot ones so I can try those next, because I love these ones so much I want to replace all of my shoes for these! Also, I noticed them forming to my feet within the first couple days of use.
