Not a fan of how toe shoes look, but I absolutely love the way these feel on my feet. The type of fabric used is durable yet breathable and they feel like you’re wearing comfortable socks. They are light weight and don’t rub between your toes. My feet don’t hurt after walking miles outside in them and I even use them when I’m on the elliptical machine, treadmill and when doing squats on leg day which has helped my balance tremendously on my one legged squats. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to traditional tennis shoes again for my workouts.

Love how comfortable these shoes are. I wear them for long walks and for leg day’s at the gym. Just wish I liked the look of the toe shoes more. Feels like walking barefoot!

After watching Chalene Johnson’s YouTube episode about walking/workout shoes and her new favs Peluvas, I ordered a pair. It took several tries to get the right fit. I wear a shoe size 7, so ordered a 7-1/2 the first time. Had to exchange them for an 8. Received them and found that the big toe was still too snug though the rest of the shoe felt perfect. SO, I exchanged those for an 8-1/2 . The morning after receiving them, I put them on, and decided I was never taking them off! I may even sleep in them I thought. Here is the thing , I first put them on without socks and found that the big toe did not have as much room at the tip as the rest of the toes, but I think a larger size would cause the rest of the shoe to be too loose. The back of the shoe (the Achilles heel area) felt a bit too high up and was rubbing that area which was quite uncomfortable. However, I was able to remedy that problem easily with socks. Here is what I did: I had previously ordered one pair of the Peluva toe socks which are thin. SO (and this idea came from Chalene), I put one toe sock on then put a regular sock over it, figured out where I thought I should cut, removed the regular sock then cut that top area off and put them back on over the toe socks. It is working perfectly. Very snug and soft. I will try to post a pic here. I then walked outside for a couple thousand steps and they felt great. It could be my imagination, but I could swear my posture was better🤷♀️. So, bottom line is, I would…

Been following Mark and going primal for a long time but still surprised and amazed at how much of a difference these make. I use them primarily for trail hiking and I can feel new muscles activating up past my knees. Also feel improved balance. Definitely won’t be the last pair I own.
