fun shoe
Fun shoe to wear. My normal shoes are 9.5 to 10 and they say on their website to order one size larger. I ordered a 10 thinking i was more like a 9. I do wish I had ordered an 11 as the long toe beside the big toe feels a bit scrunched. The other four toes fit great. When I order another shoe I will do size 11.
Lining up the toes is fun! In a regular shoe I probably turn my toes out - for these i recommend turning your toes in - once the 2nd toe is lined up the other three move into place quite easily.
Love this! So cool to hear how well they work for drumming. Thanks for the 5/5 review!

LOVE&HATE
I am 80 years old and live in Australia. I love wearing my Peluva’s. The hate comes from not being able to make eye contact with most folks. They are captivated looking down at my shoes.
This is amazing, Thomas! We love that your Peluvas are turning heads, even if it means sacrificing a little eye contact. Thanks for rocking them all the way from Australia!

The Best
I can’t express enough how much these bad boys have changed my fitness game. Extremely comfortable, the wonderful feeling of being barefoot without actually being barefoot. Improved the strength in my ankles, calves and legs in general. I’ll never wear anything else!!
Love to hear it, Ryan! That barefoot feel really is a game changer, glad your Peluvas are leveling up your training. Keep crushing it!

It’s been a while since I used shoes like this; I used vibrams years ago, these are so much more comfortable. I havent taken them to the gym yet but I’ve done some rucking and it feels amazing. There are very few times when I’m so satisfied with a purchase, this is one of them.
I love these shoes. They are exactly what I needed. I'm glad I got the size bigger than usual because my first and second toes are long. I only wish I could wear them in place of my steel-toed shoes for work.

Takes a but of getting used to but these are a game changer for me! I can finally get the toe freedom I want but protection against rough terrain. I was working out in socks only before but Peluvas opened a new world of movement for me

Wear them everywhere. The comfort is next level. Usually I need to add a special insert into my shoes to be able to wear them for long periods but peluva's just how they are are wearable all day long! Highly recommend anyone try these out.
That’s amazing to hear, Marco! So glad your Peluvas are giving you all-day comfort without the inserts. Thanks for the awesome review!

New foot experience!
They arrived fairly quickly, even though they are from the USA and I live in Alberta, Canada!
They took a week or so to break in gradually, wearing them a bit longer each day.
I'm a woman, and it said my size is a 9.5, but I ordered the men's because the choice I wanted in the women's was out of stock in my size. I went down 1 1/2 sizes as recommended when a woman wants to wear men's shoes, and then went up 1/2 size to a size 8.5 because I want to wear socks, and that is also recommended.
With socks, they still feel a bit too tight in the big toe - I feel like my big toe is too long for the big toe slot, so next time, I'll order a size 9 in men's shoes or a 10.5 in women's shoes, just to make sure the big toe fits o.k.
However, if I wear these 8.5 men's shoes barefoot, they! feel GREAT on all my toes!
I prefer to wear them without socks because of how comfortable they feel with bare feet!
I walk 10,000 steps daily, and I already feel like my feet are getting stronger since wearing them.
And a funny thing, I had a left knee pain issue before I purchased them, but after wearing them for a few weeks, my knee pain is gone! I wonder if these shoes are changing my bio-mechanics from my feet and further up my kinetic chain???
Thanks so much for the detailed review, Yvonne! We’re thrilled to hear the shoes are already making a positive difference, including helping with your knee pain. Your feedback on sizing and how they feel with and without socks is super helpful for others, too. Enjoy those 10,000 steps a day!

Better each w time I put them on
They get more comfortable and normal every time I wear them. Love them at gym, doing HIIT, just walking around town. Feel more stable on leg days. Waiting for a navy color lol.
Glad the sizing worked out and they’re feeling great, Shawn! Hope they continue to hold up well for you!

My feet thank me
I’ve suffered from the modern day shoes for too long, so despite the fact that I get teased about it sometimes, these shoes are a godsend for literally everything I’ve been doing physically.
These shoes are truly great.
Your feet know best, Travis! It’s awesome to hear how much relief and support you’ve found with them, even if they spark a little teasing. Worth it!

Better than I expected.
This is the first pair of toe shoes I have owned and they are awesome. I remember around 2010 while I was still active duty army a lot of my soldiers were buying the new running toe shoes that had just come out. Unfortunately before I bought a pair the army made a rule that we couldn't wear them. Cut to 15 years later and my chiropractor recommended me looking into minimalist shoes to help with my mobility.
I was not really sure how I would feel about these at first, but after putting them on they are more than I expected. Its hard to describe because on one hand it doesn't feel like I'm wearing shoes, but more like slippers. On the other hand, my feet still feel protected for going running or to the gym.
Thanks for sharing, Travis! We’re so glad your first experience with toe shoes exceeded expectations - sounds like you’ve found a perfect match for your mobility and training goals.

Great customer service and great product
I recently went through a bunion surgery and decided to get some five finger type shoes. Pelluva stood out. I was very disappointed when my package got lost in the mail. Pelluva made it right and shipped me another pair. Thank goodness because when I wear these shoes it feels like I am getting a foot massage with every step. These are helping my feet recover from years of bunion pain. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Has just the right amount of support for the feet. I thought the shoe was going to be really thin at the bottom like the vibratims. These are way better.

So, I ordered a half size smaller then I normally wear(Size 10 mens) and that was my mistake. The toes fit a bit too tight for my liking, but again, that one’s on me. The shoe itself is very comfortable to wear even without socks, granted, I do believe they sell them on the website but I was unable to see where exactly, so I’ll have to buy them along with my correct size next time. Oh and, thanks to Stayflexy for recommending these on his youtube channel. 💪🏻💪🏻

I am absolutely in love with my new Peluva shoes. They’ve finally freed my toes and given me that barefoot feeling I’ve been craving. I love walking around the house and yard barefoot, but that’s not always practical or accepted in public. Now, thanks to Peluva, I can enjoy that same freeing barefoot experience anywhere I go.
If you're like me and have longer middle toes than your big toe, be sure to order a half size larger than your usual shoe size. I learned this the hard way. I ordered my regular size and wore them for a week, thinking I could break them in, but they just weren’t comfortable. When I finally reached out to customer support, they were so kind and understanding. They quickly sent me a new pair in the right size, and the difference was night and day. I absolutely love great customer service, and Peluva really delivered.
I've worked in the fitness industry for over 30 years, and I've always believed that foot health is incredibly important for overall well-being. That’s why I spend most of my time at home barefoot. Peluva gives me the freedom to keep that natural, grounded feeling no matter where I go. These shoes feel like walking barefoot, but with just the right amount of protection and support to keep my feet and body strong.
In short, Peluva has nailed it. Great design, excellent support, and top-notch customer service. The individual toe design, zero-drop sole, and flexible cushioning all come together in a shoe that lets your feet move the way they’re meant to. I couldn’t be happier.
Thank you, Dennis! We’re thrilled to hear how much you love the barefoot freedom of your Peluvas. Your feedback on sizing and customer service means a lot to us!
Love hearing this! So glad your son’s enjoying them and round two is a win too!

Unusal at 1st
Ive been wearing toe sock for years. I started to help keep my toes from rubbing on each other. So I was excited for these shoes. I thought It would be like wearing slippers. No definitely not. The hardest part is getting your toes into the shoes for the 1st few times. After some time your toes will get used to moving apart and slide in effortlessly. ** the size calculator works well, BUT it gave me my size barefoot.**. I would need to size up to wear toe socks. That being said I wear the shoes a LOT and enjoy it. My calves are definitely feeling it after a few runs and walks. I ride a ONE wheel, its an electric skateboard and wearing these shoes while riding is insane comfortable.
Overall experience is im going to look into getting the trail shoes
Appreciate the detailed insight! It really does take a little time to adjust, but once your toes get the hang of it, it’s smooth sailing. Love that you’re rocking them on your Onewheel too,sounds like the perfect pairing!
