FAQs

How do I know my size?

In general, we find that it's best to order a half-size larger than your regular running shoe. While we offer standard shoe sizing, Peluvas have one basic common foot pattern, to accommodate your individual toes. This common outline is intended to fit most people. Of course, this pattern increases or decreases based on shoe size. Some people have a longer second toe than the first (or big) toe. Others have a longer than average pinkie toe. In these cases, you might try buying a half size larger than your normal shoe size. It is not necessary that every toe extends all the way into each toe box. We recommend that you use our fitting app underneath the size chart of each product.

They feel weird at first. Is this normal?

Many people have never had the experience of wearing “gloves for the feet.” As such, it might feel a bit unusual at first to have your toes in separate compartments. Most people find that after a few minutes of wearing them, they begin to enjoy the feeling and appreciate the newfound freedom of having their toes able to move up and down over surfaces unevenly. After a few times wearing Peluvas, regular shoes might start to feel cramped, an indication of how uncomfortable regular shoes generally are. Over time, you'll find Peluvas to be far more comfortable than any other shoes.

Can I run in Peluvas?

Running in minimalist shoes is an entirely different challenge from running in regular running shoes. It takes very strong and well-adapted feet to be able to effectively and efficiently run in any minimalist shoes - including Peluvas. If the small muscles of your feet have not become acclimated (adapted) to covering longer distances barefoot, it’s best to not run much - or at all - in any minimalist shoes. Our advice is to spend your day going barefoot when appropriate and/or wearing various styles of Peluvas (in the house, at work, walking distances, at the gym, running errands, going out, etc) putting the muscles of your feet through various easy movements and ranges of motion which, over time, will allow those muscles to get stronger. Then, when it’s time to run (or play soccer or tennis or basketball), put on the shoes that were designed for that sport. Your feet will thank you.

How Shoes Destroy Your Proproception, Weaken Your Feet, And Promote Overuse Injuries

It’s absolutely essential for your feet to interact directly with the ground and deliver valuable neurofeedback to allow your brain to initiate complex kinetic chain activity throughout the body. This is what we at Peluva call, “groundfeel.” You need a shoe with an incredible flexible sole, an appropriate but not excessive amount of cushioning, and articulated toes to generate acceptable groundfeel.

'Barefoot' Sneakers Are Extending Their Grip In The Sneaker World. Here's Why

On one side are the sneakers with hyper-cushioned, almost comically bulky soles that have unexpectedly become fashionable recently. On the other side are the minimalist, “barefoot” sneakers, meant to provide as little support as possible so that a runner can move around the world in the same way as our ancient ancestors did.

The Best Wide Toe Box Shoes That Aren’t Barefoot

When it comes to shoes there are two extremes: Maximalist and Minimalist. Maximalist shoes have thickly cushioned soles, arch support, pronation control, and all the doodads possible. And unfortunately, often a pointy narrow toe box as well.

Minimalist shoes are the polar opposite with no cushion or support of any kind, as little shoe as possible so that nothing interferes with the functioning of the foot. And also there’s the foot shaped toe box we love so much.

"While workout shoes typically offer the support, comfort and motion control you need for treadmill runs or intense HIIT workout sessions, barefoot shoes offer very little of that yet remain an excellent choice for weight training, walking and everyday wear.
