I bought these in hopes of dealing with foot pain relating to my feet spreading as I age. I have very small feet and very short toes and have had tremendous trouble spending lots of money on shoes that were continually hurting my feet. I have only worn them for about a week now, but I am very impressed so far. I do wish they made socks for people with smaller feet and smaller toes. So far I prefer to wear them without the socks. I would definitely recommend these to anyone who has had the same issue, also I feel like my balance is improved, especially going down the stairs since I do that mostly on my toes.
Response from Peluva

Going barefoot in them is a great option as well. We’re so glad they’re making a difference for you—thank you for recommending them! 😊

Enjoying my shoes
I really like my new toe shoes. I have worn another brand for many years having seven pair of them.. I was very excited to see this company. I do prefer wearing socks with this brand though. I did not realize you can get a free pair of socks with your purchase so I missed out on that deal. Make sure you get your socks!

Amazing!!
They’re a little odd at first but then you adjust and it’s the best shoe I’ve ever worked out in and it’s really cute. 10/10 go up at least 1 size imo

LOVE them!
Love them. I just took them on my first spin in the trails and I am never going back. Thank you!

Love them!
After getting them and discovering a stitching error, they sent me a new pair out quick. So glad I listened to others and sized up a half size. My regular 10 would have been too small. They fit perfectly. There is more cushion than I am used to, but I will be using these in the mornings for 3-5 mile dog walks on concrete. My regular vivobarefoot don’t have enough cushion and my feet start to hurt. My altras have too much. This is the perfect balance if you’ll be walking a lot on very hard surfaces.

Got me back to minimal shoe running
I ran distance on five fingers for years, but age and an accident meant that I needed a bit more protection from the pavement. After a few half marathons on conventional shoes that led to very sore quads, I got my Peluvas, and wow! I'm back to pain free running! They do the job and I love the color too!

Excellent product AND customer service.
I’m really liking my new shoes. Already I feel like I have a better stance thanks to the spread out toes. And I forgot to get my free pair of no show socks but the company heard me and went out of their way to send me a pair. Highly recommend the shoe, the socks, and the company.

Great tread.
Good for gripping the pavement when power walking, and the water resistance is an added bonus!

The best!!
I’m so glad that Peluva came out with a running shoe with a slightly thicker bottom to last a bit longer than the Strands. I also love that these shoes are in a light shade of purple!
It took a bit to adjust to these shoes, as well as building a strong aerobic base, but these are my sole shoes of choice & I am running 70+miles each week now [started at about 10 weekly miles over 2 years ago]. They are the comfiest shoes to wear & I don’t get any foot pain or blisters in these shoes, which I would experience constantly in other barefoot-like / zero-drop running shoes.
This is my 4th pair of Peluva’s & I will continue to wear these on all of my morning runs.
Thank you!! :)

Great shoes
Very happy with the Strand ATR. They run a little bigger than the Strand but I like it. I prefer these for my longer walks. I’ve been very happy with both my Strand and Strand ATR. Wil definitely be buying more.
These shoes have been great for my Morton’s neuroma. No burning in my toes when I wear my Peluvas.

Love the new lacing
Love the new design especially the new lacing design and colors. Just added a couple more pairs to my Peluva collection. I’ve been Peluva customer for a couple years now and been getting compliments every I go even in other countries (my hubby and I travel quite a bit). I’ve been bragging to everyone who asked that these shoes are super comfortable for walking and running and even helping them to the website .

There is some sort of witchery in this shoe
I have constant foot pain due to a bunion and arthritis. I have purchased many expensive sneakers trying to alleviate the pain. I bought this shoe, hoping it might help me feel better when I walk. I LOVE THEM! I have no pain, which boggles my mind. My doctor says it is probably due to the shoe aligning the tarsals and metatarsals.

Maybe just maybe these shoes will help my feet.
I am a 71 year old woman with severe bunions on both feet. I have been wearing toe socks and toe separators for the last year. It took me quite a bit of time to get my toes into the right toe boxes the first time, but once I did the shoes were comfortable and I think they will continue to properly splay my toes. I have been wearing the shoes around the house for about a week now. It is getting easier each time I put on my Peluvas. If you buy these shoes don’t give up the first time you try to put them on, it gets easier each time and your feet will be happy. I only wish these shoes were available when I was younger!

Lacings have changed
Got my new shoes today. I'm not happy with the new lacing system as it makes it hard to open up the shoe enough to get my foot in. I need a shoehorn! Also the turquoise blue laces clash with the army green shoe color.
Hoping all of this won't matter when it rains and I wear them outside!

Womens Strand ATR
I really like the thicker sole. They also seem to have a bit more room in the toes which is nice. I also like the way they tie with the toggle vs. the shoe laces. There seems to be more support as well.

Most Comfortable shoes ever.
I am a 62 year old women with back, hip, and knee pain since 15 years old. I have several hammer toes. Since receiving these shoes I have walked well over 10,000 steps per day , everyday. My body pain is almost gone. My toes are improving. Thank You

Love it
It is not water proof but it is water resistant which is already much better than my previous Peluva.
So far so good!

I like how my feet feels in these. They have been working out just fine, and it does taking a bit getting use to, but they are working out great.

Love them.
These are incredibly comfortable. I love them.

IN LOVE!
I LOVE these shoes! Minimal and lightweight but still durable and perfect for walking, running, going to the gym, or running errands. I bought them because my bunion hurts after wearing traditional tennis shoes all day. I can gladly say that there is no pain after wearing these! :)
