5 Stars

Very comfortable and from a glace and a far most people dont even notice. It also feels like wearing entry level toe spacers all day and its so comfortable. I wore vivos for 2 years and they didnt feel wide enough for me as my pinky toe never felt like it could splay proper and was always pinned on the side of the show. With these no more pinky toe pain and they honestly look really good too imo

Super comfy

After exchanging (painless!) my first pair which were slightly too small, I love the fit, comfort and support of my new Peluvas. They fit perfectly snugly. I wear them for walks/short hikes and I almost forget that I have anything on my feet! I had to keep looking down at them, at first, because my brain thought that I was wearing socks. Also, nice and grippy for scrambling on dry river rocks.

Awesome shoes

These are great shoes! Way more comfortable than my old Vibrams! Looking into buying another pair soon!! I do wish the women’s shoes came in larger sizes! Disappointed that I can only buy the men’s colors 😢

Comfortable and true to size

I purchased one size larger as recommended and my pinky toe would pop out. I guess I have a defective toe (lol). Thankfully, Pelova has an awesome exchange program. Can’t wait to get the correct size in and I’m also waiting on the Green ATR‘s to become available again in my size.

10 TOES IN!!!

To start off first, I had the not so right size because apparently 1 foot is a little bigger than the other so I just ordered a half size up and everything is starting to fit. So I definitely will say order a whole foot size up because I was in 11 1/2 so I ordered a 12 1/2 and everything fits well. Breaking the shoes in is interesting, after wearing these shoes for about two weeks or three weeks it has now come down to the point to where They fit like a glove and my feet look forward to going inside the shoe. The return process is very easy. The only thing is, I have not yet received the socks that are supposed to be coming with the shoes but other than that everything‘s good, I love the shoes. My feet and toes are really breaking in and it feels like a glove and I will say please make some waterproof ones or water resistant ones that would be very awesome. Thank you.

Thanks for the awesome breakdown, John! Great call on sizing up to get that perfect glove-like fit—it really makes a difference. We’re thrilled your feet are adjusting well and loving the feel. Sorry about the missing socks; we’ve got you covered there and will make sure they get sent. And yes, water-resistant options are definitely on our radar. Appreciate all the feedback!

Comfy while I get strong.

Very comfortable and highly breathable. True to size for my barefoot fit. I really like the way the shoe wraps around your ankle while the tongue seals the ankle nicely. It keeps debris from getting inside your shoe. It took me about a week to get used to sliding the shoes on and not using my fingers to guide my toes. I love how active my pinky toe is in finding the natural splay it needs right now. I want to thank the Primal Movement crew for helping me learn about these shoes.

So far so good

She has been great so far every time I’ve worn them they feel very comfortable and my foot feels more engaged. I should’ve purchased more toe socks, and unfortunately, the size I need are on backorder. Time is still needed to determine what my long-term opinion is, but so far so good!

Perfect!

See my prior lengthy review. Love this footwear! Got them for walking, trail walking, hiking and work on my personal farm. I feel like they have assisted in correcting my alignment while walking. Learning curve on getting them on at first, took me a few tries. I’ve got it down now.

Perfect shoes for me.

I’m old and these are perfect for my balance and comfort. I now have purchased 3 pair. 1 is for working around the farm. 2nd is for casual semi-dress up like going to town and the 3rd pair is for wearing when I need a black pair. I did get a blister on one of my toes because I wore them without socks. Had to go back to regular tennis shoes till that heals and the difference is extremely noticeable in my confidence when walking. They may not be for all old timers . I love them and I have recommended to several friends because of the difference I feel in my control of balance when I walk. I’ve always been a barefoot gal. These allow me that and protection from a puncture or stone bruise when outside working. I had seen this type of shoe in the past and was not impressed with the quality/appearance of them. These are the first ones I ever tried on the recommendation of that FlexyGuy on YouTube. He is great and so are these shoes!!

Life Changing

I was a pedestrian struck by a car going 60mph in 1993. Since that time, after many surgeries and additions to my legs, I have struggled with foot pain since. In May 2025, I attended an AHIA conference where I meet someone wearing Peluva's. After the ergonomic professional explained what the shoes did, I immediately purchased some. I had to see if they made a difference. And they did! This year, I attended Carb Day at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway wearing a very expensive pair of running shoes. Half-way through the day, my feet hurt horribly, as I had become accustomed too. I got my Peluva's on Saturday, the day before the Indy 500. I wore my new shoes and had no pain whatsoever., despite walking an additional 5k steps more on Sunday then I did on Friday. Still haven't had any pain in my feet or legs. As my title suggests, these shoes represent a turning point in my life. Thank you!

I like the socks. I probably should have got a smaller size though

Love my new Peluva Strand ATR shoes

I recently bruised my heel and was in tremendous pain, even using crutches to get around. While searching online for the MOST comfortable shoes, with the MOST cushion (because I never wanted to injure my heel like that again), I came across a video regarding barefoot shoes, and specifically Peluvas. I began listening to several videos regarding the importance of barefoot/minimalist shoes. So, I ordered my first pair of ATR’s. I had to send them back for a full size larger because I did not size up as so many had recommended. I have now worn my Peluvas for 3 days and I can say that I absolutely love them! There have been times when I forgot that I had them on and went to put on shoes! They are that comfortable! They feel so natural but yet my feet are completely protected in them. I have not used them yet for cardio, as my heel is still healing, but I hope to in the near future. I’m now telling my friends and family about them because I love them so much.
