I already have two pair of Midways and have worn out the tan ones so I am ready for another pair. I wear only Earth Shoes because they are the only shoes that do not hurt my feet due to my plantar fasciitis. They are absolutely heaven sent! So comfortable and yet supportive of my heel and ball that they are far more comfortable that my normally bare feet. Also, I am almost Vegan and I appreciate the vegan offering from Earth Shoes. As for Zappos: what's not to love! I have never dealt with a company with better customer service. Out of 5 stars, I give them 10!

These microfiber sneaker styles from Earth are the most comfortable shoes, well, on Earth! They are like wearing slippers all day. They breathe in the summer and are warm enough through mild winter. The footbed is a dream if you take to the negative heel like I have. There is a bit of a lack of support along the sides - Midways would not stand up to a hard workout without the risk of rolling an ankle. But I suspect some of the lace-up versions would offer more support. The zipper works fine but you can easily slip in and out of these without using it, yet the shoe is completely secure for a nice long walk. I typically wear a 9 (though my foot is more like an 8 and 3/4 if there were such a thing), and so far Cabos, Yosemites, Midways, and Razors by Earth have been absolutely perfect in a 9. These are not particularly stylish, but they have a mellow profile.

WOW!! These shoes shipped an hour and a half after I placed the order and were on my doorstep the next morning!!! And I LOVE them. It feels like I\'m walking in bare feet. I wore them yesterday with no socks, temps in the upper 80s, and there was no discomfort. I also tried them on with socks and they seemed fine, which means I should be able to wear them probably into December. I\'m definitely going to buy another pair of Earth shoes that will be a little warmer for the winter.

This shoe is great for anything--walking all day in cities, hiking all over mountains, or just working while standing on your feet/running around all day. As others have said, it is UNBELIEVABLY light--the mesh allows for lots of breathing room. This is also great for getting caught in storms, because the mesh allows water out (rather than getting your feet soggy sitting in a puddle and then turning pruny...), and allows the shoes to dry quicker. I wore these shoes every single day for about 10-12 months--right until the insole started giving way. I've had such a great experience with these shoes (they're slipper-like--it's ghostly) that I'm having a hard time picking out what shoe to replace them with, since I want to experiment with other Earth shoes. This was my first Earth shoe, and I don't want to wear anything else now. They do wonders for my back and feet.

Cute, comfortable, and versatile -
These shoes are terrific. I love Earth and these are no exception. Perfect shoes for posture. The zipper IS functional; they are very light, incredibly comfortable, and great for walking long distances. They are on par with my favorite pair of sneakers in terms of comfort, but better because the color (brown) and style make them look slightly less casual than gym shoes -- making them a great pair with many different outfits. Only drawback is that I wish the sole were more rubberized. It is not slippery, but I do not get as much traction as I'd like on some surfaces, especially tile floors. Otherwise, 5 stars all the way!

I Love Earth Shoes -
Lately I haven't been impressed with the styles offered, but I needed some comfy shoes for a trip; saw these and had to order them. I ordered Bay Leaf, which, online, looks tan. Unfortunately it is green (like a bay-leaf, duh.) so despite their comfiness and good look, I couldn't take them on my trip. Despite my husband's wanting me to return a lot of the shoes I ordered for try-on for the trip, I'm going to sneak this one in as an exchange because it's a great comfy shoe and looks good. The only thing about it is that the zipper isn't functional, which would be better for getting them on than just the loop on the back, which tends to rip eventually.

Great shoe! This is the most comfortable shoe I have ever owned. It's so light weight and easy to walk in that I bought a pair of Vegans for my husband, who has back problems (he loves them). Not the prettiest shoe but the comfort more than makes up for that. Great for someone with a little wider foot. I am changing out all my shoes for Earth shoes!

I LOVE this shoe!
This is the 2nd pair of negative heel Earth shoes I've bought; and the fact that they make them for vegans like me is great! I plan to get every style they make. I put them on, and they felt like I'd been wearing them for years - no "breaking in" time required!

I love this shoe! I own two pairs. I wish they came in better colors though (light blue or lavender or some other nice spring color).

Feet feel as if you're walking on clouds -
These are the most comfortable shoes I own. They feel like slippers but provide ample support. They are stylish and look better than any sneakers I’ve ever owned. I bought a pair for my daughter, a teacher -- and she lives in them. She now has three pair and I’m about to order my third pair.

Very quick overnight service on a shoe that is comfortable and gives plenty of room in the toe area. Definitely a 5-star shoe!

I love this shoe!!!
It looks better on your foot than in the pictures. It weighs about 1/2 pound, the negative heel supports correct walking form and reduces the number of chiropractic visits I make! I got the brown ones and intend to order the black one as well. I am a teacher and I walk all day long. I can walk all day and still have energy wearing this shoe! The first time I wore it, I took my dad for his appt. with his vascular doctor at Emory Hospital, walked all over the hospital, and still felt fresh and ready to go when I returned home. Believe me, these trips are long and drawn out. I usually come home exhausted! WONDERFUL SHOE!! I'd like on in every color!! No need for orthodics with this shoe, excellent negative heel and arch support!!

Wow, love 'em!
These are extremely comfortable shoes and I think they look good, too. They are very flexible, lightweight, and great for walking or standing a lot. I highly recommend them. Just wish they came in a grey color.

Funny looking but oh-SO-comfy!
I have BAD Plantar Fasciitis heel pain and these gave me immediate relief. My posture is also improved. They are extremely lightweight, comfy shoes. Why hadn't I tried these sooner? I have no idea but I just ordered a pair of Earth sneakers to work out in. If your feet are killing you these are absolutely the ones to try.

Fantastic!
First of all, these shoes arrived within 18 hours of ordering...amazing! Right away when I put them on I knew I was in love. They are by far the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. They fit like a glove. Very lightweight and flexible. I went online immediately and ordered these in another color.

My back has been hurting...until...
I started wearing the Earth shoes. It made a huge difference and changed my entire posture. Even my tummy is flatter now! I have two pairs. I use the Vegan strictly for working out and my others for daily wear. I wish I could own more.

Most comfy shoe ever -
This is my first pair of Earth shoes and they are the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. I have a troublesome back and a very painful heel, and these shoes allow me to be pretty pain free all day long at work. Thanks!

Instant relief from back pain -
I suffer constant lower back pain...When I first put these shoes on and started walking, the pain magically disappeared. However, I think the arch support is exaggerated by the negative heel and it takes some getting used to the extra support. I also have Plantar Fasciitis, which the shoe seems to help. The design is a bit strange but pain relief is the most important.

Very Light, Comfortable -
These shoes feel great from the moment you put them on. They are so light it is kind of spooky, you think that there is something wrong. I immediately tried them out by stepping on rocks because I was sure you could feel through that sole, but they are sturdy! I like that they are basically slip ons, almost feel like wearing slippers. The zippers on the top are not very good but it doesn't seem that you need to use them. They are homely though, I am thinking they might grow on me. These would be GREAT shoes for travel because they would be so light in a suitcase and offer a very comfortable alternative when your feet get tired.

I always have a difficult time finding the right shoes but this one fills the bill in most aspects except a tad lacking in lateral support.

Just an OK shoe -
After reading other reviews, I was expecting nothing short of perfection from this shoe, but it's not as comfortable as other shoes I own and the workmanship isn't great. It looks like glue or something is leaking from the zipper, which has resulted in a dark stain along the top of the shoe. They're comfortable for short periods of time, but there isn't enough cushioning to keep me happy on my feet for more than a few hours. My Chaco flips are way better in terms of comfort!

A little unusual!
This is the 2nd pair of Earth shoes I have purchased. I like the comfort- it takes some getting used to how the shoe pitches your balance backward. A decent working shoe, but I think overpriced.
