Love!

It takes me a while that my toes in the inserted toes at the shoe because I have a huge bunion, but I feel like it is going to realign itself by wearing these shoes. Very hopeful and excited.

PERFECT for my feet which much prefer to be barefoot. My feet are crooked & have bunions. These shoes are very comfortable & accommodate all my feet issues

After going up a half size, I found the shoes quite comfortable! Much needed for my hard to please feet. Thank you!

Very nice

I am having a bit of an adjustment. Getting used to my toes being surrounded by shoe, but they definitely feel comfortable. I’m hoping they will help me with my plantar fasciitis and my hammer toe.

Wonderful & much Needed

At 56 1/2 I have noticed changes in my mobility especially with increased sitting at my home office. Glad I gave PELUVA's a try. Love the lightweight feel of this trainer my feet and alignment are improving daily.

Great made shoes

I gave y’all a five star because of the fast delivery, the shoes is good quality and comfortable! I wished I had ordered a half size up!! Hopefully they will stretch a little bit! Not your fault! Thanks

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.

Vacation for my Feet

I love the peluva shoes, they are so comfortable, I did have to go a whole size up when ordering. I walk dogs 5 miles every day up and down hills in the forest they make me sure footed every step I take which is important since I'm 78 years old. Takes a few extra minutes to put my socks and shoes on, but worth every second of it, I have to agree they feel like a comfortable glove on my feet.

Best shoe ever!

I was astonished at how comfortable this shoe was. The initial fit was odd to me, but almost the moment I started walking in these shoes, it was like my whole body was sighing with relief. I discovered my natural gait and threw out my Kurus (sorry; not sorry!) I'm now replacing ALL my shoes with Peulvas or going barefoot. Huzzah to newfound mobility, no pain and better muscles! Thank you so very much. :)

Comfortable Toes!

I've worn Vibram 5-toe shoes in the past and stopped wearing them because they weren't really all that comfortable. I bought these on the suggestion of my trainer, and they are very comfortable, to say the least. Short break-in period while my toes got used to finding their new home, but now they just slide right in. I can only hope that Puluva develops more styles for women so I can buy another pair of a different style.

Four pairs and counting

Love my Peluva shoes. Can’t tell you how many peeps have taken a picture of my shoes. Women are curious and men….well…. not so much. Play tennis and pickleball and pain free for 1.5-2 hours on hard surfaces. Think I need to branch out and get a light blue court shoe if they make one. All in all a game changer for me whether I am playing a sport, walking or shopping. Right now I am not wearing any other shoe when I walk out of the house. WHEW! What a foot relief:) Oh, make sure to up your shoe size as I just went 1/2 size and I find I skip over wearing them. A whole size up works best for my feet. Thanks PELUVA! Shirley.

Lifechanging shoes

This is my third pair and they’re simply awesome. I’ve gone up half a size, which I actually think is from wearing these shoes and my feet finding their natural splay/length. I do seem to wear a hole between the large and first toe fairly early on, but it hasn’t detracted from the shoes and will be interested if sizing up changes this. Thanks so much for making these shoes! I suffer with neuromas in both feet/different tows and plantar fasciitis which are largely kept at bay by wearing these - which is simply lifechanging! Thanks!

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 🌍

It Really Does Get Easier!

I've been wearing my Peluva's for a little over a week now and while initially it took me up to 5 minutes to get my toes in the right spots, it didn't take long to be able to get my toes in place much more easily. The shoes are very comfortable and I have not had any soreness or discomfort in the process of getting used to them.

My Personal favorite pair. Lightweight. Squishy, Great Durability

I love my size 8 lightweight trainers they are by far my most favorite pair compared to the all black Trail hiking boots and the Desert Boot designs. While I love all Peluvas the light weight trainers are true to their name and weight nothing, they fit my feet perfectly and give the best barefoot experience. They are not waterproof in-between the toes but these are made to have breathable material between the toes to reduce sweat during exercise so its only inconvenient when it's really rainy and I accidently step in a big puddle going to my car but that doesn't stop me from wearing them everywhere . This specific pair i wear almost everyday for work and exercise in everyday so 5 stars for quality design. They show no signs of any bad wear and tear and I have had them for almost 6 months already..which is why the pictures are of Dirty peluvas i wanted to show how well they have held up for someone who goes through shoes fast . I run on dirt roads constantly in my area and they have held up very good on tread, foam, and overall hold up. My bunion pain and nerve pain in my feet has definitely reduced since wearing which is one of the main reasons I wanted to try toe shoes. I tell people the only bad thing about Peluvas is that its hard to wear all your old shoes once you start wearing them. They say to size up but for some reason I have found my normal size 8 seems to fit me the best. I didnt have to return them the first time for this specific pair the first pair didnt fit me but peluvas return and exchange process was so fast and easy I was able to figure out the right pair and get them shipped within days. Will definitely get a new pair of this design once these start to fall apart especially if they get different colors.

Love, love, love!

I was very skeptical of these shoes. I am a 62 year old woman who has been wearing Kurus for a few years. I decided to try them as I still have some foot pain and I wanted to fix the underlying issues instead of just trying to medicate the pain with shoes. I ordered a pair and the first thing I noticed, when I tried them on, is how stable I felt. I took a couple of weeks to get used to them and then wore them to walk the dogs for an hour. They felt wonderful! Then I wore them to the gym. Again, amazing! I love them and I am now ordering a 2nd pair. They do have some traction which I also love because in life, water gets spilled and sidewalks get wet from sprinklers. I wanted to be safe and many of the barefoot shoes have no traction. I tried a different brand and as soon as I put my foot down on the wood floors, they felt slick. Not safe. Peluva has passed all the tests. Don’t hesitate to order.

So comfy!

I got the Strand Lightweight Trainer to use as my daily walking shoe (transitioning from the running shoe I have worn for years). They are very comfortable and I’m glad I made the switch! Plus, I’m getting compliments on my “fun” or “cute” shoes.

Impressed AND obsessed!

The minute my new Peluva's arrived, I put them on and took them for a spin on my daily walk with my dog. I was immediately impressed with how comfortable they were! I have a history of plantar fasciitis and my feet pronate inward so I was concerned they might not work for me. But even after wearing them all day, my feet still feel great and I'm obsessed with them! I can't wait to buy another pair, I just have to decide which one's I want next.

Lightweight Joy!

The Peluva shoe is the way to go! Perfect structure for all feet. Couldn't ask for a better solution for walking, exercising or hikes for proper placement of toes and foot. So comfortable that you do feel like you are barefoot. Thank you Peluva for your manufactured uniqueness in these trainers!
