I got these shoes to find relief for really bad heel pain. It took me about 3 weeks to really get used to the high arch of these shoes, but now my pain is gone! They are incredibly lightweight, a definite plus.

Incredible Comfort!
These shoes are very comfortable and really do help with my posture! Since I've been wearing them my knee pain has almost completely disappeared! They are worth every penny. I also get many compliments on how nice they look. Zappos is the BEST shoe company. I am amazed that I can order on Monday and get my shoes on Tuesday!

Great shoes! They are true to size (I wear an 8.5 wide), very light and comfortable, and very cute. And Zappos, how do you do it? I just ordered these last night and they were on my doorstep when I came home today! Amazing!

I ordered these shoes for a two-week tour of Ireland. They were very comfortable, even during the 2-mile hike in Heathrow Airport while we were transiting to Dublin. These shows have a high toe box and offer great support. They are wonderful for wide feet.

These unbelievably lightweight shoes were just want I needed. I have a foot problem that I have lived with and doctors can't help it, but the toe width of this shoe works for me. I did need to swap out the insoles for my own because of a down-fallen right arch, but it worked! You have to realize that you're hearing from a (75) year old and I love these shoes.

These shoes are so comfortable. The instant I put them on my feet felt like they were walking on air. They are unbelievably lightweight and after a day of wearing them my legs were mildly sore, so I actually got a small work out! I do believe they are worth the money.

Love these sneakers - I need width in the toes and these provide a very comfortable, but supportive walk. Even comfy without socks, with the nice material inside. I’m addicted – it’s only Earth Shoes for me from now on.

I'm happy I decided to purchase the Earth Glide (vegan) in Navy. It took me a little while to get used to the negative heel, but now this is the most comfortable shoe I've ever owned. After walking in them for hours while shopping, my feet may be fatigued a bit but they are not swollen and painful. Earth Glide is great for warm weather because the mesh part of the shoe is very breathable. However, I recommend wearing a different shoe when it's raining because the water goes straight through the mesh part of the shoe. Also, the bottom of the sole seems very slippery, but I have had no problem with slipping at all.

I wear a 7 wide in Earth shoes. Yeah, they don't make many. This shoe fits well with room for socks. I'd say it's true to size. The arch support is significant, I suppose to give more support when running or jumping. I stand and walk...uh, I did jog a few yards one day when I felt feisty. Shoe works well. I'm getting used to the arch support, which is more arch than the Solar (the only other Earth shoe in 7 wide). Balance in the shoe is exceptional even for Earth Shoes. I sense that I am standing solid. Have had compliments on the look of the shoe as well. Classy was the word. I am an Earth shoe wearer, meaning I threw out all my other shoes except the steel-shanked work boots. I've two pair or Exer-fits and one pair of Solar and these. A small wardrobe, but Earth brand is worth the sacrifice. My chiropractor can see a difference in the way my back adjusts since I switched to Earth. I highly recommend these Glide Vegan shoes. Very nice no animals died for me. Thanks Zappos. Please get some more wide styles in, okay?

The Earth Glide vegan 7 1/2 (wide) shoes have great cushioning and plenty of room for my bunions. I can finally enjoy longer walks with much less pain. The kalso negative heel supposedly aligns your spine and strengthens your calf muscles as well. I also love the fact that no animals were harmed in the manufacturing process!

After toe surgery, both feet, I have had a very hard time finding shoes with a large toe box. I ordered these in a 7W and a 7M. I am sending the 7W back and keeping the 7M. They are wide enough to flex my toes and still do not slip off my heel. These are very light, look nice and are comfortable. What more can you ask for? Zappos is great. I buy all my shoes here.

I have very painful, misshapen feet (crossed toes - among other things). Even with surgery several years ago, foot problems have continued. Podiatrist once told me he was surprised I could walk at all and I must have high pain tolerance. And so I am always on the lookout for shoes that just might help. I read multiple reviews on the Earth Glide - Vegan shoes and decided to give it a try. I view these shoes as almost miracle-like. Today I spent several hours walking around at the Minnesota State Fair with very little pain in my feet. I am more than a little impressed and would recommend these shoes to anyone with never-ending foot problems. I know I'll be buying other Earth shoes in the future.

These are the best Earth athletic shoes I've ever had! I don't always need a wide width, but the Rockets I used to get seem to be sized a bit differently now and were not comfy. When I tried these, I was elated to have all that wiggle room for my toes; no breaking in period, instant comfort. There's enough support for my power walks, too. I still can't get over how lightweight they are! Zappos' service was incredibly quick, another plus!

These shoes are great! They do everything they say they will. I can feel my stomach, buttocks and entire leg being worked. I make biscuits at a restuarant and I stand for 7 hours. This is not a very active job and I have gained quiet a bit of extra weight and when you are overweight it is even harder to try to have good posture. These shoes give you a workout and they make you have good posture. I am in love. I have had these shoes for about a week and I can already see some leg muscles coming back. After I take them off my body still wants to stand perfect. I thank God that I found these shoes they are a miracle!

So happy Earth shoes has decided to make some wides and this one is real good. Wish it had a bit more support on the sole, but it is wide enough for my bunions; very nice.

I first saw these in another catalog with 'New' on the ad. I was not too surprised that they were already sold out. The shoe looks great. Then I remembered to try Zappos. Not only did they have them, their service was outstanding. They feel good, look good (have gotten several compliments) and I think Zappos is a fabulous source for shoes.
