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.

    I needed a 2nd pair

    What can I say, other than I LOVE these shoes! I bought the pink pair back in March, and I wear them all day and even workout in them, but I kept them strictly for home use. I have arthritis in my big toe, which had gotten so bad it would throb and annoy me constantly. Wearing my Peluvas have strengthened my feet and with the toes separated, have allowed my toes to become stronger and more flexible. Almost zero discomfort now. I had to have a 2nd pair to wear out into the world (to work, the store.. everywhere). I live in these shoes. Happy feet.. happy life!

    Would recommend

    The fit and comfort is phenomenal, I’m returning these ones for 1/2 a size larger because a couple of my toes are tight on the edge but they already feel more rewarding than traditional shoes. I love that my toes can stretch, move individually and even feel blades of grass pass between them. Relatively very stylish and extremely comfortable (especially once you get accustomed to them).

    Dream shoes!

    I absolutely adore these shoes. I have Multiple sclerosis and my toes fold in on each other because of it. These shoes are an absolute dream.They separate my toes. They make it easier for me to walk. They are just all around the best shoes I have ever had! I have recommended then to all my friends and family.

    Good shoes, but still slightly stiff

    I really like these shoes. I feel it's helped my pinky toe really reacclimate to a more balanced stance. My only criticism is that even if those social media influencer promoting the shoe display the overall flexibility, the sole is still a bit stiff despite illustrations of showing otherwise. I can't flex my toes inward. It is a tadbit water resistant, which I did not expect. I still think it's a good shoes
