Good everyday shoes

Good fit although I would like 1/4 additional length for the big toes. Comfortable for walking, which I do a lot of. Random strangers asking about them. They stand out! It's my 3rd pair of Peluva.

So glad they’re comfortable for daily walks, and we appreciate the note about the big toe length!

Great feel

They have a great feel. Enjoy the walks using them. However, the outer surface scuffs very easly.

Glad they feel great for your walks, and we appreciate the feedback about scuffing.

Thank you

Thank you for making pickleball toe shoes! I have tried so many different pickleball shoes and have yet to find a wide enough toe box so my toes can spread. When I first put on these Peluvas, I could immediately feel that my foot was positioned properly and it felt so good!! I have not worn toe shoes before so I'm slowing breaking in my Peluvas. The design fits the shape of my foot very well. I usually wear women's size 9 but always size up to 9.5 to get a roomier toe box. My toes do not reach the end of the toe box in the shoes but they are very close, especially my left pinkie. I'm a 4.5 player so there's a lot of movement on the court. After playing for 2 hours, I can feel pressure in between my toes...this may get better as I adjust to the shoes. Or maybe I should have sized up? When I'd really stretch for a ball, I could feel my toes hitting the toe box. The ends of my toes were pretty sore after playing so that makes me wonder if these are better for drilling and not playing. Or maybe I should try to find some socks that are cushioned in the tips of the toe? We shall see if my feet adjust. I'm also curious to see how long the sole lasts. Overall, I'm so impressed that Peluva has made a court toe shoe with some cushioning. I feel so nimble on an outdoor concrete court and my feet feel pretty good overall. Thank you Peluva!

The shoes are great!

I had some barefoot shoes by Xero that served the purpose for a while until I noticed there was a dull pain deeper inside of my foot that kind of proved that my toes needed to be separated while wearing the shoes and this brand fixed that Hopefully, someday they will make a shoe with a little bit more rubber on the bottom so you can play impact sports like basketball

These issues have seriously helped me the first week was a little rough getting used to them, but now that I have worn them for seven days, they are a total game change

Very comfortable

I like these a lot. They are comfortable enough to wear without socks, which is my preference .

Good solid socks

I like these socks for what they are; well made and comfortable. I bought them to go with the shoes because I was worried they’d begin to smell bad if I wore them without socks. But, I have preferred to wear them without socks anyways - they don’t smell and I find it feels better to me to wear the shoes without the socks.

Great new shoes.

I love these new shoes. It takes a little getting used to and learning how to get all the toes in the right place but once you figure it out the shoes are comfortable and work well.

shoe tech has come a ways in 10 years

When I had previously bought a competitor's shoe prior to 2019, it felt like I was taking a gamble on a relatively new entry into the market. It was good for walking with, but uncomfortable for pretty much anything else. Fast forward to today, these are good for walking but feel fine to wear for the full day at work sitting behind a desk. When walking with these, I feel like I'm being propelled forward. I wish my pinky toes were easier to get in there, but maybe that will get easier with time.

A magic cure for my foot pain

I have suffered from foot pain for years—pain that at times prevented me from walking normally. I had to stop walking when I played golf, and had to use a cart. The problem with my right foot became much worse after I had my right knee replaced nine months ago. I saw two podiatrists in the last year for professional opinions. The first diagnosed Morton’s toe involving my right second and third toes. He gave me a shot, but unfortunately it did not help. Months later, after a right knee replacement I saw a second podiatrist who said my second toe was enlarged with arthritis and that surgery could solve the issue. The recovery would require two to three months. After replacing my knee during last winter so I could play golf this summer, I was not at all eager to face another surgical procedure. So I began using AI to help me better understand and diagnose my problem. Most of the research pointed toward a metatarsal issue. I also discovered how many bones were in the foot and why foot surgery often causes life-long issues rather than solving the problem, As AI suggested, I bought several different pairs of wide toe-box shoes with zero drop, some helped but did not eliminate the pain. Then I started installing metatarsal pads in the problem shoe, and eventually in both shoes. I purchased different sizes of pads and tried them in various locations under several different insoles I had purchased. After a lot of trial and error, the pain became controllable, though not gone. I was walking fairly well, but still with moderate pain. Then I happened to watch a golf instructor video. The instructor was wearing unusual black shoes with individual toes. I studied the video several times to try to determine the brand but couldn't make it out, then after several searches, I found your site. I received your shoes ten days ago. At first, they were very difficult to put on but fit perfectly—but VOILA the pain was gone immediately upon the first wearing. What? How could this be? What was so different about these shoes that allowed me to walk like a kid again? Suddenly I could walk without special insoles or pads. You two inventors are magicians. I bought the golfing model ( one size up as you suggested) of your shoe, but now I only use them as my house slippers to, as you suggest, “train” my feet. About four days ago, I began to ease into the shoes more naturally and get my toes into the shoe on the first try, just as you said would happen, because the shoes began to form to my feet. On my wish list: a different color golf shoe, white ankle socks, and a more stable heel so I can slide into the shoes without fiddling with the heel pad, which often collapses when I put the shoes on. Thank you so much for designing these shoes. God bless you for curing the foot pain of this 83-year-old man. Tomorrow I will try to walk the golf course when I play...not sure how far I will make it in my old golf shoes. And I will buy another pair of your shoes as I don't want to get my current house slippers dirty! Jess

What an incredible story - so glad the Apollos have helped you walk comfortably again and enjoy life with less foot pain!

Surprisingly comfortable

Definitely light weight and surprisingly comfortable from the moment put them on. They are helping my feet and ankles get stronger because of the barefoot level of support for the ankles and freedom of movement through the forefoot.

Just Casual

I like the Strand ATR. It's comfortable. I only use them as casual wear. I'm not too crazy about the elastic cord because I got spoiled with the ease of slipping on the Carrie St. However, I do appreciate that little hook on the tab, but I wish it was easier to snap on/off. Possibly having a tiny bar near the top of the shoe for the hook. What about the possibility of making the tab magnetic?

A perfect fit!

I have very wide feet and was hesitant to order as I didn’t want the hassle of a return. Imagine my surprise when these shoes fit perfectly! I ordered EXACTLY as was suggested. I still have to break them in but am looking forward to wearing them.

Fixing my broken feet

For years, my toes have been bent wrong. I’ve been walking wrong. It’s called sciatic pain and nerve pain. These shoes were hard to put on for the first five minutes not because there was anything wrong with the shoes, but because there was everything wrong with my feet. I’m five days in right now and I have more comfort on my walk-in stride and step that I’ve had in years. I am 6 foot8 size 14 shoe, 280 pounds. These work for big men too. I can’t wait to take these to Nepal later this year.

Great shies

Great shoe

I’m really enjoying the separation of the toes. I feel more balance and I really have enjoyed them. This is my second pair. I bought the yellow and black ones first but I didn’t realize that there were half size 2 small they’re a little harder to put on, but the black shoes I got now are really easy to get on and off really enjoy the product

Love these slip ons! They do run slightly bigger than a 13, so i only wear them in the house.

Nice for keeping your toes straight, but the material is really cheap. This should be an $80 to $90 shoe all day.

Only because I can fit my right foot in it. On my left foot I have a really crooked toe and can't wear the left shoe. I hope that they put it in their future products so that people like me don't end up buying shoes they can't wear on one foot.
