Customer Reviews Kalso Earth Solar 2

Comfy and work friendly - As a teacher, I stand a good part of the day. My legs are not tired after wearing these shoes all day. They are extremely comfy and stylish. Zappos is the best online shoe store!

Earth Shoes-Earth Solar - I purchased these for work. I was looking for a shoe that would be comfortable for long hours on your feet. It takes a little getting used. The shoes are great but I did not know they had a velcro strap, if you use hose this is not the shoe for you. I have torn (snagged) several good pair of hosiery due to the velcro strap.

Happy Feet - This is my second pair of Earth shoes, and second pair of Solar shoes. The black are much dressier than the brown. They have been life savers for me since I have plantar fasciitis and these are the one pair of shoes I can wear without much pain at all. I have been very pleased!

Nice Toe Box - I just received the Earth Solar shoe yesterday and wore them to work this morning. I love the large toe box on these shoes and they are very comfortable. Unfortunately, I found that they have already scuffed. I hope this does not continue to be a problem.

Worth giving a chance - Took some getting used to - had to wear band aids around my heels the first couple days - but they seem to work regarding improving posture. The dark brown leather color dresses them up a bit - these are more of a business casual shoe than a casual kicking around shoe. The heel is low and if you usually wear higher heeled shoes (like Danskos), your pants may be too long with these.

Airport friendly - Not as comfortable as my Dansko’s, but I can get through airport security without taking them off. Black shoe color does transfer very easily to fabric (socks, pants). Specially designed sole does help with balance.

Great shoe - odd look - I love the Earth sandals, and the negative heel, so I thought I'd try these for work. The problem is that they just look too odd for the office. It's not the negative heel; it's the turned up toe. The combination allows you to fully roll your foot when you walk, which is great for you, but I just can't wear them in any but the most casual situations.

Comfortable - I have arthritis in my big toe joints that is so bad I cried anytime I had to walk further than a few yards. I haven't taken a painless step for about 3 years. Until I put on these shoes. I won't say there's NO pain, but the pain is so diminished that I scarcely notice it!!!!! The toe box is roomy, & the little split in the top of the instep allows extra room at the end of the day when my feet sometimes swell. I had no problem getting used to the negative heel. I'm not crazy about the skinny strap ~ it cuts into my ankle even when I loosen it ~ but for the most part, I love these shoes & plan to buy a dozen more Earth Shoes.

My first earth shoes. I bought these online, but I wish I had a change to try them on in a store first, because I think I bought them little too big. It’s very hard to tell though because of the insole. This might be the reason why I got a blister on my heel the first time I wore them. After a while I got used to them, and now they’re pretty comfy.

Really comfortable, but not all that attractive- I wear these everywhere. They're incredibly comfortable, but they're not very cute. I found that these were looser and wider than marked. My feet are a bit wider than average, so I recommend that you order it in narrow and regular just to be sure.

Earth Solar Shoes - I have wide feet so they come in different widths. I had bunion surgery on both feet among other toe problems. These shoes are amazingly comfortable. They force me to walk up straight with the head, shoulders and back in the proper alingment. The only thing I was not too happy about was the distress look of the leather. They look as if I had been wearing them every day for at least a year. Anyway, I would not return them just for the look because they are extremely comfortable.

Super cute and comfy too- I'm really impressed with this shoe. It took a couple of days to get used to the negative heel but is really comfortable now. It's just a great all-around walking shoe. I LOVE the look- it's so cute with pants and skirts alike. The leather (twister) is really shiny and nice. I'm not thrilled about the velcro but it's nice to have the adjustable strap. The Mary Jane look is really cute.

Not wide enough - I had difficulty finding the right fit. I ordered 3 different sizes before finding one that was comfortable. It runs very narrow, which I think is a shame, because it's a great idea.

Did not work for me- They seem to run really big (would prefer half size smaller) and the ankle strap hurt the top of my foot. Also the arch support would take a lot of getting used to (similar to Birkinstock) and may never be comfortable if you do a lot of walking.

Not a cure- I read the reviews. I bit the bullet and bought the shoes. No, these are not a cure for my plantar fasciitis and heel spurs. I wish. I'm still looking for a shoe that can make my feet feel great after 8 hours on them. That said, they are better than most of the other shoes I've tried. I really do like them. They are quite comfortable... for the first 5 hours... and they look great. I'm satisfied with the purchase.

Cute & Comfy- They're very cute and score high points for comfort - I find them not to be very well made, though, as the pretty stitching on top seems to fall apart already (and I've had them for two weeks). Another reason I gave them only 4 stars is that I wish Earth made those shoes in wide width in vegan.

My Solar Experience - I like the negative heal feel. I have high arches that have pronated over the years (I'm 58.) With this shoe I don't seem to need orthotics.

My Review - I like that the shoe looks a little more stylish and can be worn in an office environment. The she is also pretty comfortable, but I wish the insole had a little more cushion to it.

Disneyland Tested - I bought these a year ago and had only worn them off and on. They had always been comfortable so I took them on our trip to Disneyland this year and couldn't have been happier with the result. We're the kind of group that are at the park from 8am-midnight and my feet didn't hurt once. For those unfamiler with Earth Shoes, wear them in familiar settings first to get comfortable with the negative heel, and then prepare for pain free days in them! I have a 10.5-11 size foot and wear a M or W depending and the 10.5W fit perfectly!

Nice shoes - I got my Earth shoes at the Zappos.com outlet in KY. One of the workers at the store recommended them. These shoes are really comfortable, but it takes time getting used to the negative heel. I am glad I got these shoes.

First time buyer - I originally ordered the earth pirouette-but it was too narrow for my feet which very occasionally require wide with shoes. I really love the earth solar. The negative heel is very comfortable, and makes my calves feel energized when I take them off. They're fabulous for long hours of standing. I just wish earth made more of their styles in wide width. The size/length of the shoe was accurate.

Fantastic shoes for work - These shoes were comfortable from day one. I love them!

Wearing this show has taken some getting used to. The leather still feels stiff and I would have liked to see it a little more flexible. Also the strap, while adjustable, still wants to return to the original position and then protrudes. I have been wearing them to stand all day while walking the floor coaching call center agents on a new system. The arch support is great and the lowered heel does keep my body aligned. However the length of the show is a bit short for the size and found that after standing for some time, the second toe hurts.

Earth Solar - I love the negative heel on Earth Shoes, but I have a very wide foot. Solar is one of the few models available in a wide width. (I would love to see some of the Oxford-type or running shoes in wide!)This is very comfortable and dressy enough for work, but the velcro strap keeps catching and tearing my pantyhose. I wish Earth would go back to the buttoned strap style of Moon (no longer available)in a wide width shoe. I recommend Zappos as a great, service-oriented company. They are very helpful and cooperative. Now if they could just get more wide-width Earth shoes...

still breaking in - earth shoes sounded like the perfect remedy for my foot fatigue so I'm giving it a spin and to encourage better posture. I think the shoes still need breaking in because there's still some discomfort in the arches or maybe my feet needs to conform to the shape. The shoes go well with my day wear and the velcro strap makes it easy. Zappos delivered extra quick - great service guys!
