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.

- LVLorraine V.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars1 week agoFirst time - Interestingly good
Bought these for my teen - this is what she had to say : A thicker sole than I was expecting , however, this is my first pair of barefoot shoes so that may be the norm. I love the toe spread-ability and the overall feel of the shoe. I will definitely recommend these. (She’s got me convinced)
- DCDebbie C.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 weeks agoWonderful shoes for happy and healthy toes!
I bought my first pair of lightweight trainers over a year ago. At first my toes had issues finding their respective slots, but with a little practice - we got there :0)
I recently ordered a second pair in a different color and slipped into them with ease and comfort. I love shoes that connect with the earth, pedals, and any surface I choose to explore. These shoes do the trick, and in fact, I feel like jumping and running right now!!
Thank you to everyone at Peluva. Joy in customer service takes very good care to ensure all is well.
I will be back soon for hiking boots!
Much Appreciated

My wife loves them
- CCClaudette C.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoLove these shoes!
I love these shoes!!! I was concerned about the size. They recommend half size bigger. I have 1 pair of running shoes at 7.5 and another at 8. But then I did the AI and it recommended 8.5 so I took the chance and the AI was right! My pinkie toe barely makes it in its spot but my big toe practically goes to the end. When I first got them I wore them most of the day indoors. I haven’t ran with them yet but I wear them to walk my Shih Tzu or other walks and I absolutely love them!!! I am considering getting another pair as slippers for indoors. FYI have you thought of making slippers for indoors??? As a stay at home mom I wear slippers more often than I wear shoes.
- MPMarika P.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoGreat Barefoot Shoe!
It’s super comfy and I love the toe separation to reinforce our human toe splay! It’s a great option for new barefooters or seasoned barefoot shoe lovers!
