| It was the first shoe, ((along)) with the Jesus sandals, to make a social statement! - Manolo Blahnik , Shoe Designer What was originally an anti fashion statement 25 years ago has today become fashionable. They are a relaxed and comfortable alternative to other fashionable footwear. - Kenneth Cole , shoe Designer Hi there

Highly sceptical , I was persuaded by a friend to order some and try them out..... Guess what ... they really do improve your posture...... too early to tell you about the rest of the promises, but after 3 weeks, my long term bad back is certainly feeling better, I can feel the muscles in my legs and buttocks being used and what's more they are so comfortable. They cradle your foot and they look great.... - Rula Lenska (see full text here)

| Hello, Well, my boots just arrived and I am so pleased with them! They are better than I could ever have imagined them, so comfy and cosy and really beautiful! I didn't realise how much I had been missing being able to wear my earth sandals, Thank you so much for your help, Beccah |

| Hi
Shula, Thanks for the reply this late on a Friday!! Speaking of maternity leave I want to say a big THANK YOU to you. A pair of red IKO klogs saw me through my entire pregnancy even when things got hairy at the end and I swelled up like a balloon. Towards the end the only shoes that would go on my feet were firstly a pair of Earth slippers (which attended two funerals and a couple of nights out - the legs of my jeans are pretty long!) and when those would no longer go on I could still wear the trusty klogs. I had to walk bare foot to the delivery suite as the last couple of days of the pregnancy no shoe nor slipper would go on, not even my husbands slippers!! It took me two weeks to loose all the water I'd retained during the pregnancy. I'm now living 24/7 in the Earth slippers at home minding baby Fionn (boy) and not looking forward to going back to work and having to wear heels (I know I don't HAVE to but I'll really want to). The result of all this healthy shoe wearing are the softest and healthiest feet I've ever had. So again Thank You. Naoise. |

"Originally considering MBT trainers, your comparison table between Earth/MBT and customers' feedback decided me to buy Earth trainers instead. Absolutely Fantastic! Have had a bad hip problem for last 10 years and, despite lots of sport, never walk without pain. But the Earth trainers have reduced the level of pain Significantly; I can walk further in much less pain! I love them so much, I have bought myself a second pair (in your half-price Feb offer) and a pair of sandals. Have recommended LoveThoseShoes (and Earth shoes) to everyone + my Spinal Specialist and colleagues. Also such an easy, friendly site, with amazingly fast execution of orders" "I love my shoes, and Shula is an incredibly customer friendly representative of your company! Initially, I was a bit skeptical of ordering because of the cost of shipping. But ,the style shoes are what I was looking for, so it was worth the additional cost. I was also able to purchase them on sale, so that made it all the better! Thank you. Maria" |

| Hi
Shula Thank you so much for your advice about Earth trainers - I'm going to put them on now. You've reassured me that they'll do the same job and I have to say I think they look far superior to the MBT's. Can I just say thanks for the great service I've received from you. Kind regards Jane |

| Hello Shula...
I was given a pair of your shoes for my birthday a few weeks ago by my mum, after she had purchased a pair of moon mist sandals for herself about a month beforehand. I have suffered from moderate to severe knee pain since I was 16, and I am now 25. I am a childrens nurse which involves being on my feet for 12 and a half hours 3-4 days a week. I had surgery on my knee earlier this year for a maltracking knee cap which has been far from successful and I had resigned myself to living with knee pain for the rest of my life. Since wearing my shoes at work...and whenever I can at leisure, I have not experienced knee pain AT ALL. After a day at work, my legs and back ache, but I think this can be said of most nurses, and a nights rest is all I need to recuperate. People have noticed a difference in my posture and gait, and the strangest thing I have to report is that my lower back aches when I DON'T wear the shoes for more than 24 hours! I can honestly say I have been amazed by the effects my shoes have had on me...all positive ones, and I have been more than satisfied with the product. I work at Great Ormond Street childrens hospital and I think many of our staff could benefit from your shoes, indeed, I have already personally recommended them to a friend of mine who suffers from similar knee pain to mine. We have recently undergone a change in uniform, moving from dresses and tights to a tunic and trousers, needless to say, far more practical and comfortable! I am in the process of finding out who is responsible for the dress code of the hospital, and I would like to ask her how interested she might be in advertising your shoes hospital wide, as I truly believe they would be of great benefit to other members of staff here. Should she be at all interested, I was wondering how you would feel about a group discount to members of the hospital if a bulk order was put in...or even if you would be happy to recieve such an order? Many thanx for a fantastic pair of shoes and an almost pain free life! Lara Deacon x x |

| EARTH OPENED A WHOLE NEW VISTA

I CAN’T THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR ENLIGHTENING ME ABOUT THE SHOES AS YOU HAVE HELPED MAKE MY LIFE A LITTLE EASIER TO HANDLE. THANKS AGAIN. RESPECTFULLY, MARTY KLEIN EXECUTIVE V.P. SALES KAKTUS INC. |

| Thank you so very much for the information and quick
reply. I will look forward to receiving the grey MBTs. I'm glad
you could make sense of my rather convoluted e-mail! Thank you again, |
|
| thank you so much, my earth shoes arrived today and i have promptly ordered a pair of sandals[ i live in birkenstocks in the summer]. i had a varicose vein operation last november and due to complications had been in pain every day...not today after wearing these shoes!!!!!!!!!! yes you have another convert to earth shoes...once again thank you for your fast service amanda |

| HEy there. Just to say how Fantastic my new earth forest sandals are,and so so comfortable. And your service. Next day delivery no less, amazing. Thanks especially to Claire for putting up with far too many questions, and for being so helpful. I love my shoes, they are beautiful. I think I may develop a shoe fetish! |

| Hi Shula, My two pairs of Lotus came a few days ago and I picked up my Lifestyle from the Post Office today. I waited a long time for my first pair of MBTs (casual) but they were certainly worth waiting for, what a difference. Everyone says I walk more upright but that it does not look strange. They are certainly very comfortable to wear and I feel, and know, they are doing me some good. I liked the look of the Lifestyle ones and thought it was a good way of letting everyone know about them. I will get a lot of pleasure from wearing them. I was also very pleased with my Lotus shoes. I like that style of sandal/shoe and was pleased to see I could purchase this style of footwear along similar lines to the MBTs. Roll on when the weather improves and I can start to wear them. Thank you very much for the good service you provide. Yours truly, |

| Testimonial
from a sceptical guy! Hi Shula! Well, what can I say - my Earth shoes arrived
yesterday, and you got them to me in just 24 hours, great service
which is so rare these days with people hiding in the anonymous
cyberworld - you really live up to your promises! However, I guess the fact you say you've been in business for more than 5 years on the internet, and continue to succeed bears real testimony to the fact that you must consistently get the basics right. I'm a fan. Oh, and the shoes - well, I bought them after finding your website via Google. I have a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament in my right knee (awaiting surgery), and need constant physio to strengthen my leg muscles to compensate. After only one day of wearing my stylish Earth shoes they're really making an undeniable difference to my calves! I'm sure they'll be the best buy I make this year. Keep up the good work - the only downside is that my wife now wants some - this could become an expensive fashion! Cheers, Ian. |

| Thanks
for the prompt delivery of my new Earth Shoes! To
be honest I'm was a bit of a sceptic with regard to the negative heel,
but as soon as I put on my first pair (Evolution Ochre) the effect
was immediate! A straight back and muscle toning to my legs, so it
really does do what it says on the tin (I mean your website!) I was
also very happy with the quality of the shoes, this is really the
perfect shoes for me, and since this is my 3rd pair from you I must
be hooked!! I needed some trainers but I also wanted to still have
the benefits of my Evolution and Forest so I was pleased when you
started selling Earth trainers. Many Thanks! Mark. |
I
love my earth sandals! They have certainly
saved me from a lot of aches and pains this summer. I'm going through
the last trimester of my pregnancy through these hot hazy days and
these sandals are the only ones I'll wear. They make such a difference
in reducing the strain on my back and legs. They are appropriate to
wear to work or play. I am so grateful that I was lucky enough to stumble on to these. I am a true believer! Thanks! |
| Great shoes! I bought two pairs of the Earth shoes. First, the colors are wonderful, rich and almost jewel-toned. The profile is a little lower than the previous Earth look, making them less clunky, and able to be worn with somewhat dressier outfits. They provide the same posture benefits and are a welcome style addition to the earth shoe line. - From New York City |
The best of both worlds - These
are the most comfortable as well as diverse shoes that I own. Every
single time I wear them, I get compliments on how cute they are,
and they feel like walking on air.
From St.
Louis, MO |
| Aaah...great
shoe! I received this shoe for Christmas. Wow, am I ever
glad I did! The fit is great, the leather and construction high
quality, and it has that great "original" Earth Shoe feel. As a
matter of fact, all the folks we visited over the holiday insisted
on trying it on for comfort and wondering if they were as good as
we all remembered. Happily, I think we were all satisfied. I will
definitely order more. The Earth Shoe was all I wore when the originals
were around and I'm SO glad that they are back. Great job! P.S.
It's a really cute shoe, too.
by Betsy C. from Fredericksburg,
VA |
I wore the original Earth shoes for about 20 years, with about a half dozen beat up pairs still in the upstairs closet, worn when I did not have to be presentable. I now own three pairs of the new Earth shoes. No doubt this is a better engineered product, both from the point of view of comfort and durability. Extending the sole upward in the back to protect the lower heel of the shoe will keep these shoes looking much better for a long time. Leather also seems to be much better quality. The toe support is also great compared to the predecessors. Finally, these shoes do not look quite as weird as the originals. You've got me as a customer as long as you make them!! |
| Four words for you guys; THE
BEST SHOES EVER. Teresa New York City : ) |
I
would just like to say how fantastic your Earth sandals are.
I have suffered with lumbar back pain and scoliosis for several
years now and thought I would give the Moon Mist sandals a try over
the summer - I am so pleased I did as I
can clearly see an improvement in my posture and I also feel a huge
reduction in pain - all that and they look great!!! I've
got a pair of Mirage on order for the winter ;0) Thank you Shula!! Hana |
| Just got my first pair of Earth shoes. These are marvelous! I have high arches, and these actually support them; I am one of the world's champion slouchers, and I find it impossible to slouch in them... thank you! | The
posture adjustment is felt right away...back is straighter.
Very stylish, well-made shoes. Looks very good with jeans. Ditch those
bowling style ones and get a pair of these! Cobbler stitch is rare
these days. Highly recommended. From Sunnyville, California |
| Should
be called 'Energy' shoes! I spend long hours on my feet during
seasonal retail. It is amazing the extra amount of energy I feel
wearing these shoes. My back also feels great. I will definitely
purchase another pair of Earth negative heel shoes. by Nancy K. from Plymouth, IN |
I
can't tell you how happy I am to have realized that Kalso Earth Shoes
are being made again! Recently, I bought two pairs of shoes, as well as a pair of sandals.
I haven't had anything else on my feet the last month. The shoes feel like walking on a cloud (which
isn't really the Earth, but you get the idea). They're so healthy, I love the way they feel, and I've received a number of compliments about how they look, which starts me on a little spiel about your shoes. Also, I am definitely looking forward to seeing the new fall line soon. |
| Just to say how much I love my new Earth shoes. The moment I put them on they felt like they were a part of me,
my posture straightened and I could feel my leg muscles stretching
out - it felt like the effects of a massage. And comfort, - Wow
! |
Thanks for replying
so quickly - thats put my mind at rest I
haven't been this excited about a pair of shoes since I was about
4 Sheila |
| Dear Shula I received my Earth Shoes this morning.........they are fantastic and very pretty ( Fiesta....biscuit ) you can feel the difference in walking and especially as we live on a hill!!!! Many Thanks Anne |
Just received my new sandals. A quick note to let you know how much I LOVE THEM!!! They fit me perfectly. Hope you had a great weekend. Thank you. Pam |
| We LOVE
the sandals. I took my mum to Italy and we really gave them a workout
- they were brilliant and we barely wore anything else for two weeks.
My Mum keeps saying they are the best things she has ever had on her
feet! Regards |
I received your site on my e-mail
and am interested in your shoes. You might be interested in knowing
that about 35 years ago I had a pair of Earth Shoes with negative
heel technology. My friends thought I was crazy, but I found them
to be extremely comfortable. How I wish I had never thrown them out,
however in one of many moves they were tossed. I am 65 years old, and I walk a lot for exercise, but even at my age I love "funky" shoes, but do need a good fit. Thanks,,,,,,,enjoyed your site. Sincerely, Janet |
| I got my Moon Mists through the post on Friday, and I've been wondering around in them all weekend to break them in, but I don't think they need breaking in because they are so comfortable. Thanks for all your effort in getting them - I'll be coming back for more Earth shoes. Regards, |
Thank you very
much for the prompt delivery of my earth shoes. They certainly make
me walk upright and are very comfortable. The fact they were posted
from Stockport where I was born and bred made me smile- 'shoes from
my roots' - so to speak. Highly delighted Regards Marilyn |
| We LOVE the sandals.
I took my mum to Italy and we really gave them a workout - they were
brilliant and we barely wore anything else for two weeks. My Mum keeps
saying they are the best things she has ever had on her feet! Regards Maree |
Just received my Energetic Earth
trainers this morning and just had to try them on before leaving for
work! Even in that short space of time they felt wonderful, so comfortable
and I can't wait to go out running in them!! Thanks again for the updates in delivery etc. Kind regards, Nicki |
| Thank you so much for your advice
about Earth trainers - I'm going to put them on now. You've reassured
me that they'll do the same job and I have to say I think they look
far superior to the MBT's. Can I just say thanks for the
great service I've received from you. Kind regards Jane |
I am pleased to
tell you that I received my order this morning and they are great
- better than MBT,s in my opinion! I shall certainly be ordering more in the future. Thanking you, Sue |
| Just wanted to
say that my earth cosmic boots arrived yesterday, and I'm really into
them.. they've got that mix of being smart and weird at the same time,
which I like!!
Also - nice catalogue.. my girlfriend swiped that pretty sharpish! Cheers Adam |
I received my Earth Solar Rosso shoes
this morning and wanted to say just that I love them and fit perfectly!!! It was worth it the waiting! Thank you and regards Laura |
