Care Guide
We recommend hand-washing your Peluvas with mild detergent. In the event that they get super dirty, you can machine wash the non-leather models in warm water and allow them to air dry. If you are spending time sockless and notice any odors, you might try some medicated foot powder inside once in a while.

- TSTeal S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 days ago1st time Barefoot Shoes Purchase
I am a female and purchased these shoes because I wanted all black shoes and the women's we're sold out. I am happy to report, after reading the sizing FAQs, that these for true to size. I wore them all day at the hair salon, a simple way to break them in. Compliments are rolling in. Most importantly, I appreciate the toe separation which makes stretching and balancing exercises more feasible. I am a barefoot walker in any home and work from home having flat feet, Knowing that being Barefoot at home has actually REMOVED passion the my arch, is a confirmation that these shoes are necessary in my foot health. My podiatrist says so.

Pliable/soft upper. Though proprioception is slightly compromised, shoes are ideal for long walks and distance running. Overall, very satisfied.
- KBKrue B.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 week agoVery nice
My feet were sore when I first used them for a long session but my feet adapted almost the next day and for most people it might take longer or there feet might be 10x sore because I go barefoot a lot but I do recommend.

These shoes are great and take a little bit of getting used to. They fit well with or without the socks. When running, it feels like you’re running in bare feet. Noticed a little change in posture during a short run. The longer I wore them, the better they felt. Looking forward to the, wearing in for a better fit. Got some double takes when people saw the shoes and weren’t sure what they were looking at.
- SSteveVerified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 week agoFantastic shoes!
Most comfortable shoes I have purchased. The individual toe articulation combined with just enough stack height make them perfect to wear all day long.
