Love the Shoes!
These shoes are the most comfortable and well grounded shoes I have ever owned. I love going barefoot around the house. These shoes feel like I'm going barefoot everywhere - inside, outside, everywhere I go! Love them!! I'm going to get another pair in a different color!
Vinny, love it. Great balance for running and squatting, and third pair is a strong vote. Navy blue request noted.

Amazing shoes
I've wanted to try toe shoes for years; however, was sure I wouldn't be able to get my right foot in (4 toes are pinned straight, big toe drastically crooked, and overlapping toes). The first day I had to force the shoe on while wearing toe spreaders, but after that, it improved every day. My feet will never be perfect, but after the first month there was so much improvement in flexibility, and a sharp reduction in pain.
They're honestly the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn (I have these and the trail shoes)... I forsee myself being a long term customer!
Phillip, this is incredible. The fact that you saw improved flexibility and less pain over the first month, even with a complex foot situation, means a lot. Thank you for trusting the process and sharing such a detailed update.

Great fit
I've been wearing "toe shoes" for years and these don't disappoint. They're comfortable and the fit is actually amazing! Great product!
Roland, love to hear it. Comfortable, great fit, and a toe-shoe veteran approval stamp. Thank you.

Dock’s Review
I really dig these! I particularly like the traditional shoelaces with this pair of Peluvas as well imparted to the first pair that I bought, which had the stretchy pull laces. I replaced the laces of that first pair with traditional laces finding they now work much better.
I am a retired Navy SEAL with significant back-injury-induced neuropathy impacting my past ability to speak my toes naturally. The traditional laces allow me to open my Peluvas more widely making it easier for me to line my toes up with the individual toe slots.
I am a past life longtime triathlete, distance runner, etc. now doing mostly Nordic walking and swimming for aerobic activity (long story). I now wear pretty much exclusively Peluvas for all physical activities requiring shoes.
Peluva seem to me to really get it right offering a minimalist shoe feel with just the right amount of support along with the toe-separating option! I am about to order a couple more pairs as well as the suede desert boots.
For what it is worth, people notice and athletic sorts of people are asking questions. So, I am blowing you up. Also, I plan to snag a pair for my wife to see whether she finds them as ideal as do I.
Personally, I would like to see heel pull loops on all the shoes. Here’s to Peluva — cheers👣🕶️♾️
PS: the attached pic shows my original pair of Peluvas and my initial shoe string mod for easier access😎
Dock, thank you for such a detailed, generous review. Really glad the traditional laces made toe alignment and entry easier for you, and that you’re getting the minimalist feel with the right level of support. The request for heel pull loops on all models is noted and appreciated. Also, thank you for spreading the word.

Great fit!
They really fit my feet and are very comfortable. Can't wait to do some walking as winter ends.
Great to hear they fit your feet so well. Hope you enjoy many comfortable walks once winter wraps up.

Peluva!
This is my second pair of Peluvas that I have purchased in the last two years and I am beyond impressed by them. I am Very active on a daily basis as far as working out and walking goes. I have other barefoot shoes that I wear at times but my feet start to hurt. I love these shoes besides the price but you get what you pay for and with these shoes I wear them everyday and it’s worth the 1-2 times a year purchase. I also love mark sisson and what he does and has done for health and fitness along with primal
Kitchen so he sold me there. Highly recommended.

Michael, thank you for the continued support and for being part of the Peluva family. We love hearing that they outperform your other barefoot shoes and hold up to your active lifestyle. We truly appreciate the recommendation.

Don't judge them on first try! Give them 2-3 days and you'll want to wear them everywhere!
Most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. After the 2nd day of wearing these I don't really like wearing my everyday work shoes. Going to buy a second darker pair for work next month.
Jeff, thank you for encouraging others to give them a few days. That adaptation period really matters. Excited you are planning a second pair.

Worth the wait and the trial-and-error process
It took me three different sizes to find the correct one; the option for unlimited returns is a must-have. The app's picture utility is a great idea, but it failed to detect the correct size by two full sizes. Once I got the right size for my square-shaped feet, everything fell into place.
Getting the shoes on is a challenge at first, but the more you wear them, the easier it gets as years of toe cramping are undone.
I’ve used other barefoot shoes before, but the individual toe slots provide the closest feeling to being truly barefoot. They are incredibly comfortable and feel like a pair of well-loved, beat-up shoes that fit like a glove because they’ve been molded to your foot shape.
They are very lightweight, but because the construction is unusual, I wonder how long they will last given my 'shoe-destroying' physique and pronation issues. So far, they have been well worth the wait and the trial-and-error process.
Yamil, thank you for the super thoughtful review. We are glad you found the right size and that the comfort and barefoot feel clicked once everything lined up. We also appreciate the honest feedback on the sizing tool and your durability concerns. That kind of detail helps a lot.
Thanks, Leroy! Happy to hear they’re working great for your workouts.

Unexpected Surprise!
I wasn't sure what to expect, but these felt comfortable to me the first time I put them on. Of course I had to get my toes to seperate, but once they were on, they felt great. I've been walking around the house in them daily and started my jump rope sessions with them today. So far so good. I did wear them to grab some hardware and multiple people stopped me to ask me about them.
I wear a size 11, so I went up a 1/2 size. My big toes feel right at the end of the shoe, so I'll see if they expand as they break in. Don't think I can wear socks with this size, but I could be wrong.
Thanks, Gerald! Happy to hear they felt great right out of the box.

First toe shoes
I will say they run small, I had to change them for a bigger size. I took a few weeks to get used to wearing them before writing my review of them. I like the way they feel I'm using my for around the house and for workout shoes.
Thanks, John! Glad to hear these felt comfortable and helped support your workouts.

So comfortable!
I am a huge fan. The shoes are so comfortable and light. I have long been a five finger shoe guy but the quality of other brands are quite terrible and fall apart after just a few months. These feel so much better definitely excited.
I love the way they feel while taking a walk or going shopping. They absolutely conform to the shape and change of form to your feet. The toes are perfect for that crouch to happen a little easier. I have full control over my walking pattern and will definitely need more!
