Surprised, and happy

I’m really loving these shoes. It’s taken a little getting used to, but I feel that my feet are so much more involved in what’s going on during my workouts. Always get reactions from people wearing these, but always positive. No looking back!

So Far, So Good

My feet are still getting used to these and putting them on still takes a couple of tries, but the experience is positive thus far.

Awesome shoe

I purchased the shoe because I'm diabetic and have circulation issues and pain in my feet. Since getting the shoes, I no longer have any pain in my toes or Arch. I have regained flexibility in my toes where I can now splay them out whereas before I could barely move them. It's only been 2 weeks using the shoes but already the Improvement has been amazing. I will definitely be buying from Peluva again

Love these!

Honestly my little toe is so stuck to the other toe, I am able to get the socks on but unable at the moment to get me little toe in. It keeps going into the other toe slot. The rest of the foot is in, except for the little toe. I am trying to train my toes to separate by wearing the toe separating socks everyday. I need to order more. Once I am able to move my toe into the shoe, I will be happy. These shoes are grounding and awesome!

They’re good!

I had some imbalances in my feet from an injury. Having the minimalist shoe helped me fix some neuropathy.

in toe

I had an accident and broke all the bones in my foot a few years ago. Still active in my mid 60's, A daily regimen of compression socks and steel toe boots have left my toes pretty mashed together and working together instead of independent. The first couple of days wearing these it was weird, and my toes didn't want to go in the right hole. Day three, slipped my feet right in and went on my first walk wearing these, mile and a half without socks. I just knew my feet were going to need icing when I got home. I could feel things in my feet working, my big toe and small toe were gripping and moving for more support. I was balancing on curbs with more foot control. It really is like walking barefoot without the pain of stepping on stuff. So far so good.

Very comfortable

I like the toe slots to keep my toes straight, my baby to seems to go under the one next to it with tailor bunions. I like the idea of my feet getting stronger.

Feet cramps no more!

My feet, along with my toes, use to cramp on me everyday. Especially at night as soon as I took off my shoes or elevated my feet. For years I tried different remedies to prevent the excruciating cramping that occurred. I tried different ratios of electrolytes, insoles for my shoes, topical creams but nothing every worked. I assumed the cramping was somehow related to my autoimmune disease. However, within a week of wearing my Peluva's I have not had a single instance of foot cramping! Utterly amazing!! It has now been over a month and I have not experienced one day of foot cramping. I am extremely active and very fit, so you can imagine how much of a struggle feet cramping can be on your psyche. I now own several pairs of Peluvas ... as does my wife and daughter! Thank you! God Bless and Semper Fidelis, Dr. Josh Barrett, DSL

Journey to Fit

After a couple of days wearing the Peluva’s, the new experience of wearing five articulated toe shoes has been a good one. A challenge at first to get on, practice helps.😁 The biggest challenge has been 2 returns to get the sizing right. Peluva has an efficient and easy return process. I have a wide foot, so maybe that is the problem, but I needed to size up from my normal 9.5 to 11 to get a comfortable fit. I like the idea of full utilization of all my toes and hope this can help with some foot problems. I would recommend you give Peluva shoes a try.

Response from Peluva

Thanks so much for sharing, Dan! We really appreciate your persistence and patience through the sizing process, it definitely takes a little trial and error, especially with a wide foot. We’re glad you stuck with it and are now enjoying the fit and feel of your Peluvas. Here’s to full toe activation and happy, healthy feet!

Verified Buyer

I'm loving them so far.

I'm loving them so far. I wear them every day for about 4-6 hours while I work from home. I wish I had gotten them about a size larger so I could wear them more easily with socks. But I definitely think they're a great purchase.

Awesome to hear you’re enjoying them for everyday wear! If you ever want to rock them with socks, sizing up is definitely the way to go.

If you love being barefoot, you need these shoes!

Discomfort in my feet and through my legs from my size 15 being crammed in steel toes…GONE! I wish I could wear these all day, but for after business hours and any time at the gym, these are my go to.

Love my new foot health because of peluvas!

I am a 68 year old man getting ready to walk across the USA in peluvas! My bunion is not a problem anymore after wearing my peluvas for almost 2 years. Peluvas should sponsor me on my walk.

More comfortable after time

I think having the right socks helps. Being barefoot in the shoe or having thinner socks helps in the beginning. I would suggest you go over by a half size then your normal shoe size. They’re great to workout in.
