Great socks

I have worn these types of shoes before even while working for an NGO in Afghanistan but with no socks. These shoes fit nicely and the socks make a world of difference.

Great Shoes For Healthcare Workers (and EVERYBODY ELSE)

MY REASON FOR TRYING PELUVAS: When I used to walk barefoot on hard ground, my heels and balls of my feet would turn white and go numb, and I’d also get a sharp pain in the ball of my right foot. I’m fairly holistic and believe most ailments can be fixed naturally (I.e. we don’t naturally walk around all day with a custom-fit orthotic and 2 inch cushioned soles under our feet), so these minimalist barefoot shoes piqued my interest. MY HONEST REVIEW: Days 1-3: (12 hour shifts in healthcare) The pain in my right foot was more noticeable than before (from a 2/10 before Peluvas to a 4/10 pain level at certain points in the day). Days 4+: I had almost ZERO pain by day 4. Since then I’ve had no issues with my feet even when walking barefoot, meaning the shoes have helped correct imbalances in my feet permanently, not just when wearing the shoes. ADDITIONAL INFO: *I wear a size 7.5 in regular shoes and bought a size 8 Peluvas which fit perfectly. *I usually need a wide-fit shoe but these Peluvas fit me well and give me no problems in the width. *Be prepared to never feel the same in your old shoes again. The few times I’ve worn my old sneakers since, my toes feel restricted, my heels are too elevated, there’s pressure in random spots on my foot. The worst part is that when I try to run in my old shoes, I seem to roll my ankles a lot. I just don’t feel stable and grounded like I do in my Peluvas. *P.S. I NEVER write reviews, but these shoes have quite literally changed how I view navigating the world on foot. Being barefoot is refreshing for me now, not painful. And when it’s necessary to wear shoes, I wear Peluvas.

After break in period, they are now favs

I wear these everywhere, sockless. They are the most comfortable shoes I own. It took a period to break in but now they have confirmed to my feet. I love being able to stretch my toes and do so often.

Comfy and stylish

My legs don’t hurt on long walk and my feet aren’t cramping anymore. My feet feel so free I forget they’re on by the end of the day. Gotta put some suede protection on them and then they’ll be more than perfect. If you have foot pain, these are the shoes for you if you like style and comfort

Feet haven't felt this good in years

Quality construction. Attractive design. Because my 'errant' toes are separated, there is less stress on my foot. Hoping for miracles, longer-term, in realigning my foot with consistent wearing.

Better than barefeet.

I look forward to putting on my Stand ATRs becasue my feet feel hugged yet not confined. After only 3 or 4 times putting them on, I found the trick and sure enough, they practically slide into place telling me that indeed my feet are transforming. I can stand all day in them, do Pilates, walk the dogs, you name it, they are so comforting to move in. Friends love their look and are envious!

Wonderful Overall Experience

Their staff responds quickly to questions and provided tailored advise when it comes to sizing and style selection. Well worth the money, not just because of the product, but because of the genuine customer service experience they have received.

Reuniting with an Old Friend

I had a pair of Vibrams in the early 2000’s while I was in the Marines and loved them. When Peluva came out, I was instantly curious. When speaking with the support staff, they said if I loved Vibrams, I’d live Peluva. They weren’t wrong! The are more comfortable and delivered a premium product as advertised. The more I wear them, the more my body thanks them. I will be having hip replacement surgery next month and look forward to using them in my recovery.

Happy Feet

I love these shoes because they are very comfortable, they have an additional cushion without it being too much, it’s just enough. I’ve tried other brands and love these! I did purchase a black pair before this one, but a 1/2 size smaller. The size 7 fits much better.

I love ❤️ them .

I bought my first pair final sale to see how they fit. I’m yoga 🧘‍♂️ instructor mostly always barefoot. The benefits being barefoot are a lot. We are meant to have space on our toes. Improve posture. Help with lower back. And of course close to the earth 🌍

Great Shoe.

Amazing shoe. Probably the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. They do wear out pretty fast, I wish the design was a bit more higher quality on the exterior.

Love em!

Bought my first pair in Nov 2025 and loved them so much that I bought a second pair of Strand ATR as well as a pair of Casual shoes about a month ago. Now I will say, which pair to buy depends on your lifestyle and your purpose for buying Peluvas. I chose these because I was looking for a pair with a little addition cushion to use on runs, hikes and walks, and also in the gym. I ended up loving them so much that I wore them as daily use sneakers as well while running errands or stepping out for social events. As someone who’s spent the past 20years wearing arch support insoles in all my shoes, I’ve seen physical benefits by wearing my Peluvas on a daily basis. I find my arches activate better when I’m completely bare foot, I’ve felt my feet ankles and calves get stronger and I also found benefits spread to my overall posture. One note on choosing Peluvas vs other closed toed shoes (barefoot or regular): there’s definitely some situations where having each toe separate can catch you by surprise and you may want to exercise more discretion or caution. For example I have run into situations where one toe can get a little more snagged, on uneven terrain or under doors. It may sound silly but it’s a situation our bodies may not instinctively prepare for if we’re not used to being barefoot in those environments. Just something to keep in mind when thinking about where you want to incorporate Peluvas into your life. And if youre worried about standing out cause of the five toe look, I’ll just say that I’ve actually ended up making friends and even joining a run club because people noticed my shoes and struck up conversation!
