Earth Sports ... walk off your weight

But there’s a very special difference. Wearing these fantastic trainers, you won’t need to go faster, because according to their manufacturers, they’re magic – in other words, they do all the work for you!

Research shows that walking in these negative heel shoes burns more calories than walking in regular trainers –  boosting weight loss and reducing cellulite.

Sounds odd, but the shoes have a comfy snug fit and although take a little getting used to, feel surprisingly normal to walk in.

Having worn them every day for four weeks, I haven’t noticed a massive weight loss (possibly due to the minor issue of Christmas, mince pies, mulled wine).

But my walk to work in the morning feels harder, the muscles in my legs are tighter and my posture feels improved.

I’m a keen jogger, but I’d say that Earth trainers are too clumpy for running as they feel quite heavy on the foot.

Overall,  they’re comfortable, look great and they’re perfect for everyday wear – and as a bonus, they’ll tone up your legs in record time.
