Customer service was helpful as this was a clearance item and non returnable however they were very kind and helpful in helping me be able to get a chance to get a different pair as i normally wear a 6½ tennis shoe so went the suggested ½ size bigger so got a 7 but had discomfort and needed a 7½

Pain gone!
I am in love! I have been trying to find a good shoe that does not hurt my feet, knees, hips and back. I am a dog walker and I do many miles a day! These shoes have been awesome. I come home with no pain now! They take a few days to break in but then they are so comfortable!
Response from Peluva
This is amazing to hear! We’re so glad they’ve helped keep you comfortable through all those miles.

Women’s Carrie ST
The toes feel stiff the left one in particular was painful at the beginning. Getting a bit better as I use them.
I did not know how much I’m using other parts of my foot with this shoes, since I feel my feet a bit sore.
I’m giving them done time to get used to .
I’ve had many compliments from them .
Response from Peluva
Thanks for sharing this—we’re glad they’re improving with wear and getting compliments along the way.

Women’s shoes
I liked the shoes, but they are a little rough in the toe area without socks. I bought some other socks on line that are a little thinner and fit better in my shoe.
Response from Peluva
Thanks for the honest feedback, Rita. We’re glad you liked the shoes and found thinner socks that work better for you.

Great shoes!
Very comfortable shoe.

Love hearing this, Petria! We’re glad they’re very comfortable for you.

No socks. No sweat. Happy toes and feet!
Order half size up. Wear barefeet. So comfortable. I would order a full size up if I wanted to wear socks. My arches and knees feel better!!! I walk and run in this pair.
Response from Peluva
That’s awesome to hear! So glad they’ve been bringing you that much comfort.

I was so excited about these as they were easy to get my right foot into, but as i was slipping my left foot in for the very first time, the loop on the back ripped.. and i wasn't even pulling that hard..ugh

To small but comfy
I'd Love to give five stars but I just need maybe an eighth of an inch more for them to fit properly. My toes went straight to the very end and just kept feeling uncomfortable other than that it helped with my heel that I was having problem with so, I'm sad that this pair did not work out. I did order another pair a half a size bigger and gave these ones to my mother so hopefully they work for her.
Response from Peluva
Thanks for the honest feedback—we really appreciate it. Glad the larger pair is already on the way and we hope they’re a much better fit.
Verified Buyer
great shoe fit!
The shoes fit barefoot, since I followed the sizing directions, however should have sized up a half size more for the socks to fit comfortably with them. I like them barefoot anyway so it works out!
Response from Peluva
Glad the barefoot fit worked out for you, Amy, and thank you for sharing the helpful sizing note.

Ideal for my gym workouts which is a combo of yoga/barre/floor exercises as well as standard exercise machines and lifting.

This is awesome, Agalia. So glad they’re such a great fit for your workouts.

So Far So Good
So far so good. I like that I don't have to deal with laces. Because I've been wearing Vibram Fivefingers for a while, I didn't have much trouble putting them on. They are comfortable and I do like the thickness of the shoe. The only issue I had and it's only slight, is that it felt tight with my left pinkie toe. Once I started walking, it loosened up some and I was fine.
Response from Peluva
So glad they’re working well for you, Sandra, especially if you already had a smooth transition from FiveFingers. Thanks for noting the slight pinky-toe tightness and how it loosened after walking. That’s helpful context for others.

Shoes
Love to look at the shoe but this one runs smaller than every other shoe I’ve gotten from them and unfortunately the size 11 is not available in the style so I’m gonna have to figure something out but they are super cute. I might just have to hold off till the 11 becomes available
Response from Peluva
Thank you, Tricia. So glad you like the look and style. We hear you on sizing and availability and hope the size 11 becomes available soon.
Verified Buyer
Comfortable and suddenly unnoticeable!
At first, shoes with toes felt new and my toes seemed to belong to another person's foot as I tried to put them on. Then, it happened. Day 3, I put them on and.all the toes went where they should, and ny heel snapped in. It's been smooth lile butter ever since. Buy them. You'll be glad you did.
Response from Peluva
Thanks for the great review, Kristien! We’re so glad to hear the shoes became second nature after a brief break-in period. It’s awesome to know you’re enjoying the fit and comfort!

Great shoes for walks and the gym
I have other Peluva shoes and I love how quickly these slip on. They fit comfortably with a thin to medium sock. I also bought the Peluva crew socks and they are perfect for these shoes. I did follow suggestions and purchase my Peluva shoes 1/2 size up from my normal shoe size. I wear a women's size 8 normally and purchased these in 8.5.
Response from Peluva
Thank you for sharing, Kaye! We’re glad these slip-ons are a hit for both walks and gym sessions. It’s great to hear the sizing advice and crew socks worked out perfectly for you.

Love ‘em!
Received my Carrie ST, put them on, used on my walking pad and I am hooked!
Response from Peluva
That’s awesome to hear, Kaye! Sounds like the Carrie STs are a perfect match for your walking pad routine.
Verified Buyer
Pleasantly Surprised!
I’ve been easing into wearing them and so far I love them. They are comfortable and seem to improve toe splay quickly. Glad I sized up. I am definitely considering buying more and trying them as my daily walking shoes.
Response from Peluva
Peggy, love that you’re already noticing improved toe splay. Sounds like sizing up was the right call. Excited for you to try them as your go-to walking shoes!

Are helping my feet and knees a lot.
I’m dealing with an almost 3 year old foot injury. These not only help when I’m wearing them at work but also are helping to rebuild strength which means I hurt less when I wear other shoes. I really like that they have just enough cushion to make it comfortable to wear them on concrete floors like I do at work. An unexpected bonus is that my knees also do better during long days on my feet.
Response from Peluva
That’s amazing to hear, Ellee! So glad your Carrie STs are helping both your feet and knees. That combo of support and cushion really shines on hard floors. Here’s to continued healing and stronger steps ahead!
Verified Buyer
Super comfortable!
As someone who is super active and has had a lot of foot pain in recent years, I highly recommend these! Sure they look a little goofy and I get some stares at the gym haha! Let me tell you my feet have a felt sooo much better since wearing these. I got rid of all my other gym sneakers. If your looking for comfort, stability, and less foot pain just buy them already! Thank you Peluva!
Response from Peluva
Thanks for the love, Melissa! We’re so happy to hear your feet are feeling better and you’ve found a new go-to gym shoe even if they turn a few heads 😉.

Great
I saw MovementbyDavid on youtube mention this helps with flexibility and plantar fasciitis and thought give it a whirl. recently got back into walking and I have to say it is helping a lot my feet are not killing me and my toes are not a stiff after three-four hour walk. Peluva was really helpful in getting right size and honestly recommend.
Response from Peluva
That’s amazing to hear, Sarah! We’re so glad your Carrie STs are helping with comfort and flexibility on your walks and that sizing worked out smoothly. Thanks for recommending us!

Wonderful
My first pair and they feel great. As expected, initially my feet got tired quickly-using different muscles, that was expected. After awhile they are comfortable as can be. I love them.
Response from Peluva
Thanks, Gloria! So glad to hear you’re loving your first pair. That early foot fatigue is totally normal, your feet are waking up new muscles. Sounds like you’re adjusting beautifully!

Flat Feet
I have flat feet and have to wear inserts but not with these shoes ! It’s only been a week and it took a couple of tries to get it to where I now just slip my feet in and they know where to go. It does take couple of times to walk distances (I walk two miles daily with my dog) and sometimes when I start my walk my toes hurt but once I’ve walked about couple of minutes the pain goes away and I love how my feet feel when walking. For once I can feel my entire foot hit the ground “evenly” and not pronating. LOVE MY PELUVAS!!!
Response from Peluva
That’s so great to hear, Nelly! We’re thrilled your Peluvas are giving you that full-foot contact and helping with flat feet—without needing inserts. Amazing that they’ve become your go-to for daily walks with your pup. Thanks so much for sharing your experience!
