Awesome

I've been wearing barefoot shoes for several years, but not ones with toes. I'm an ER nurse, on my feet for 12hr shifts, minimalist shoes are the most comfortable I've worn in my 41yr career. I love your shoes, my toes are still getting use to their own type pockets, lol, but I'm sure they'll come around. I'm now semi retired, but will get a pair of your Strands as soon as I can work it in to the budget. Thx for great shoes!!

Great shoes

I love both pairs of shoes: this pair and a trail running pair. They allow my toes and feet to spread out and feel better. I have done functional fitness and running in both and my feet feel fine afterwards. I am considering ordering another pair for daily walking around.

Awesomeness

They are very cool looking and feel good! I like that they help your foot adjust to a more natural form therefore helping with posture. I always liked walking barefoot so the wideness of the shoes make it feel very comfortable. Still adjusting with some of the smaller toes but feels good and love matching with my boyfriend!

The absolute best feeling shoe in my life!

I’ve put in many miles running, walking, hiking, trail running, climbing and I have never worn a shoe that makes my feet feel so good. I believe it has everything to do with helping align my toes after many years of abuse. Also the perfect bottom of the sole design that allows correct contact with the ground.

I love both my Peluvas! I did not have trouble adjusting to them, but I had been wearing "toed" socks for a month or so, which might have helped. I seem to have more trouble getting my crooked toe in these than my ATRs , but over all, not that hard. Again, my hope is they will help keep my big toe from moving inward and from rubbing on my other toes. ( They leave cool footprints in the snow too....lol)

Glad you’re loving your Peluvas! Sounds like your transition was smooth, and hopefully, they’ll continue to support your foot alignment. And yes, those footprints are a fun bonus!

Love my shoes

This is actually the second pair of the Peluva shoes. The first pair I got I didn't size up enough. I have tried wearing them but they just hurt my feet. I hope to pass them along to someone with a smaller foot. 😄 This last pair I actually sized up a whole size and they fit nice.

Response from Peluva

Glad to hear you found the right fit! Sizing up can make a big difference in comfort. Hope someone else gets to enjoy your first pair! 😊

Verified Buyer

I like ‘em!

Took me three tries to get the right size! I did the websites’ sizing guide, which said I was an 8.5 ( which is normally what I wear). I ended up with a 9.5, which allows me to wear the socks too. That being said, the return process could not have been easier! I did get blisters on my first outing, but that was probably my fault for not breaking them in first (like you would hiking with boots). So far, I like the way they feel, comfortable and minimal. Feel like my feet, knees and hips will thank me for this down the road!

Glad you finally found the right size! Breaking them in gradually is a great idea. Hope they continue to feel great for you! 😊

Amazing!

These shoes are amazing and well made! I wear them to the gym and what a nice difference from regular shoes. You can definitely feel how good they are for your feet. From weight training, to cardio, they are very flexible and supportive. They are extremely comfortable and I cannot imagine going back to regular sneakers now. I am typically a size 7 in an athletic shoe, but the 7.5 was the right fit for me.

My New Go To Hiking Shoes

I recently had the honor of interviewing Mark Sisson on my Life's Best Medicine Podcast and was intrigued when he mentioned Peluva shoes. I bought these and they are amazing. Multiple hikes and rucks with no foot or ankle pain. Now my Keen and Columbia hiking shoes are spending a lot of time in the closet! Thank you for such a great product. Born to Walk now.

Great Shoes!

The shoes will take a while to get used to. I've always had shoes that hugged my feet too tight. I love the Peluva shoes though since my toes feel like they can actually spread out. I use them to work out and I have noticed a small improvement in my balance. Again, this will take some time to get used to when using weight. I have no regrets.

Immediate relief.

I purchased a pair of these because I suffer from metatarsal pain and thought it might help to have my toes separated. They did relieve the pain almost immediately and I wore them for about an hour the first time. I am slowly building up my time, as they are so different from what I'm used to. I bought the toe socks and am glad I did because I don't know how anyone could walk barefoot in these. The material between the toes is too hard, making it too uncomfortable (at least, for me) to wear long enough to break them in. Overall, I'm very glad that I bought these !

Happy Feet

I shopped around for MONTHS looking for the best barefoot shoe fit for me, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase! My feet feel free even after a long day, and I’m excited to get another pair to match more outfits!

Awesome shoe and fit

Love my shoes, I ordered a half size up and it is the prefect size. I love the way the shoes fit my toes...feels so natural. I can bend and stand on my toes so easy! I will be ordering more in different colors, my first order was white. My husband says they look great! I love the look and the feel!!!

It’s great to hear how much you love your Women’s Strand Lightweight Trainer! Ordering a half size up sounds like it worked perfectly for you. The natural toe fit and ease of movement truly make these shoes special. White is such a classic choice, and it’s wonderful that your husband approves too! Enjoy your shoes, and happy shopping for more colors! 😊
