This is my first pair of fingered sneakers. They seem to fit well. Still getting used to the unique feel of them.

Once I got use to getting my toes in the right toe holes, I love them. Very comfortable.

Glad to hear you’re loving them, Robert! It can take a minute to get used to the toe compartments, but sounds like you’re all set now. Enjoy the comfort!

Great shoe, a little difficult to put on

Love the shoes, I have been wearing them since I got them, I will say, there is no way to wear these shoes without socks, I felt the inside top of each toe in the show and the raw material in the shoe toes would rub them raw, so they have been working well with socks. Also it is a production to get them on and all toes lined up into their own toe. Today was the first day that I walked 4 miles in them along paved surface, I did walk in the side and in rocks and was amazed that I could not feel them on my feet. I did notice that my feet are sore along with my calf’s after wearing them all day, but will attribute this to my feet getting used to walking in these shoes compared to my other healed walking shoes. I did get the one size up and could have been even a bit bigger as my 2nd toe is longer than my big toe and is very close to the top of the shoe so probably a 1 and a half size bigger would fit more comfortably

Response from Peluva

Thanks for the detailed review, Russell! It’s normal to feel some adjustment in your feet and calves as your muscles engage differently, that soreness should ease over time. Noted on sizing and sock comfort too. Great to hear you’re enjoying the ground feel!

It's hard to get in, but once you're in....

The shoes are lovely. Yes it's going to take some time to retrain my toes to spread so that I can get each toe and each pocket of the shoe. And I will admit that it can be painful, squished nails and all. But once you're in, they really feel good. I'm still on my first week in them, so I'm taking it light. However I have good hopes for these.

Thanks for the honest insight, Scott. Toe alignment can take some getting used to, especially at first, but it’s great to hear you’re already feeling the benefits. Keep going. Your feet are on the right track.

I love them, but...

I don't love them as my Peluva cross trainers. They are comfortable, and I ordered one full size up, but the toe boxes themselves are a little more snug. And after wearing them consistenly for almost a month now, they haven't relaxed as much as I would like. Don't get me wrong, they are over-all comfortable for walking, they just aren't as comfy as my x-trainers are. I ordered the black and white ombre, and I absolutely DO love the style. They look great on, and I get a lot of comments and questions when I wear them out and about.

Time for a change in footwear

I find it hard to find shoes that fit properly. When I have my foot properly sized it is a 4.5. I have a wide foot box that makes it even harder to find a shoe that fits. I learned about toe shoes around 2011, the price tag kept me from trying them. I purchased these to try and correct the position of my toes on the lateral side. I walk at a fast pace which with ill fitting shoes messes with my balance at a fast pace. I find it hard to keep my balance if an obstacle trips me up. I have found that I can maintain a consistent pace now without worrying about tripping and face planting.

Thanks for sharing your story, Mary. It’s great to hear that these trainers have helped with balance and pace. We’re happy you gave them a shot and that they’re working well for your stride.

I like them

I like them but I wish they had the little gel strip to prevent the sock from slipping on the heel

Thanks for the feedback, Edwin. A gel heel grip is a great suggestion and something we’ll definitely take into consideration.

Peluva shoes

So far I really like these shoes. The chat person told me to get a bigger size than normal and I was hesitant but ended up listening to her and getting a 9. I have never worn a 9 in my life. My regular shoe size is 71/2 and my running shoe is an 81/2 but they fit just right. Only thing I would change is maybe the back of the heal so when you put these shoes on it doesn't collapse as much and would be easier to slip the shoes on.

I love all my peluvas!! I am still waiting for you to put out waterproof ones. Also, a nice kelly green would be a great color!

Good tread, not for people with high arches/insteps

This is my second pair of Peluva's (love my strand sport mesh!) and I have to say that the tread is great. However, the foot opening is quite small because of the elastic laces, making it a real chore for those of us with high arches/insteps. It would've been nice to include a pair of regular laces so that I can open the shoe more to get my "high volume" foot into it. Also, the 2nd toe on the left shoe doesn't lay flat. I don't have this issue with my sport mesh so I'm wondering if this is a quality issue with this shoe/batch. They are great once I get them on my foot, but when these wear out I will not replace them with the same model.

Will buy another pair

Liked these and looking into another purchase. Although I have worn toe spacers and zero drop shoes for a while. These shoes do seem to continue to strengthen my feet and legs.
