Customer Reviews Kalso Earth Kinetic - Vegan

The shoe runs a little small. I ordered a size larger and it fits perfectly. I love the shoe. I have severe back problems and the Earth shoes have helped tremendously.

I have had this same style in the past. I love to walk in them. I love Earth shoes in general! I usually find all Earth shoes run a little big.

These shoes are fantastic! I've been experiencing extreme pain in the ball part of my foot and toes, with numbness and burning pain. My acupuncturist said Earth shoes help the problem, and he was so correct! I ran errands all day and walked all around stores with cement floors with no pain. I just ordered two more pair of Earth shoes - the negative heel really took the pressure off my toe area. Just love them.

I bought these shoes for my clinical work for school. They are the most comfortable shoe I have ever owned.my feet feel great! Earth shoes sure have come a long way. They are true to size. As always Zappos rocks!

I love this shoe. This negative heel technology has really spoiled me, so much so that I have given away all my shoes without it. My legs and back feel great and at over 60 years old that is all I need to say. I would like to see a slip on leather in more stylish varieties available. I have bought several pairs of sandals and athletic shoes for the summer and will need a good look for fall and winter. I did find the fit on all of them very true to size but love the adjustable strap on the sandal! Great for those pesky days when I have to sit too long at my desk for work and my feet swell.

This is my second pair of Earth Vegan shoes and I love them! I walk in a very hilly area, and these shoes make me walk straighter going up the hills. Also bought a black pair for my husband he says his back feels much better when he wears them.

These shoes rock! They are incredibly comfortable, but better yet, they correct my posture and give a fabulous aerobic workout, even when just walking around the supermarket. Well worth the cost! And unlike other exercise shoes, these are pretty stylish. I love!

A fun, fluid walking experience!

As others have described this shoe is not the sleekest looking but seems a bit better than some other of Earth\'s athletic shoes. I have not yet been able to wear them as I had to send them back for a half size smaller. I wear a standard 8.5 and was surprised that they were too big. I have never had to send an 8.5 back for a smaller size so I recommend taking that into consideration when ordering.

These shoes are my first experience with negative heel technology, and I am so pleased that I tried them! Not only are the white/sage green shoes extremely comfortable, but they are also very nice looking. The moment I put them on I could tell I was standing straighter and, as I wore them for a longer period of time, I realized that my usual back discomfort was gone! My main adjustment with them is that I need to practice going up and down stairs when wearing them. A small matter for such comfortable shoes. These seem to offer a lot of support while also delivering the comfort that is needed for long walks. They are definitely a keeper, and my most comfortable walking shoes!

Love the shoes, 2nd pair, have terrible foot problems and I can walk and take exercise classes in these shoes and have no pain or problems at all. They are the best, the Earth shoe is great for balance and posture. I am a permanent fan. Better arch support than custom orthotics which I have worn for 20 years.

Best walking shoe I've ever owned. I've had mine for a year and have put well over 1,000 miles on them. In addition to my exercise walking, I also wear them just for regular tennis shoes. Even after all the mileage, I throw them in the washing machine and they come out looking brand new. I've read in other reviews that people thought they were bad "running" shoes. Well, they're not designed for running. They are excellent walking shoes. (I have a separate pair of running shoes.) Some literature came with the shoes about what to expect with respect to the negative heel technology and it was all very accurate. For example, when you first put them on, you want to roll on your toes...and you do so without thinking. Once you're used to the shoes, all others just seem wrong. Also, if you wear high heels every day, these will probably take more getting used to. (It's doing the exact opposite of a high heel.) The shoes look a tad more more noticeable as Earth shoes in the picture. I have the all-white pair and they don't look like moonshoes. (However, if you're used to low-profile shoes, they are going to look like that to you.) I've had friends who have bought shoes that claim to use a similar negative heel technology (Skechers, etc.). And they're not happy about their purchases. They say they're just not comfortable and they look too weird to wear everyday. I don't have that problem with these shoes. I've told everyone about Earth shoes and am now a very loyal customer. I don't see me buying another pair of walking shoes from anyone else.

After having several friends recommend these shoes to me, I decided to give them a try. After all with free shipping and Zappos 365 day guarantee what did I have to lose right? I absolutely love these shoes! I have had problems with other shoes giving me blisters and the first day I wore these I walked 4 miles without any pain at all and you really can feel that extra incline working the muscles! I would definitely buy these shoes again!

I have narrow feet, and the heel on other Earth athletic shoes always slips. Not this one! The heel is well enough padded so that it conforms to my heel without slipping. The shoes have lots of support, and are super comfortable and light. I have had them for about a month, and I love them!

I purchased these shoes due to significant big toe joint pain (hallux rigidus) It does minimize pressure and pain in the large toe. I'm not to fond of how bulky they feel and look. I wasn't going for fashion though, just a break from pain, which they have helped.

I was very impressed I ordered these shoes on monday and received them on tuesday. I wore them for about 9 hours the first day and although they are comfortable I should have not worn them to work standing on concrete all day. I think they will break in in a few days and I do like that they have plenty of toe room for my bunions and don't put any pressure on my feet. They run true to size and width and they also keep my feet from over pronation. I would recommend them to anyone with problem feet.

To rant a bit... Maybe soon earth will start making their shoes in the USA again. When I started wearing the brand -- they were made in America. I'm tired of buying things made overseas and want to help Americans work. I would pay more for them. To rant a bit more.... I'm wanting to wear this style of sneakers but that are not white. White always gets dirty. Why can't they be made from khaki or blue or brown vegan fabrics and accents? That said-- These are great shoes. I had worn the earth energetic for years and when they updated the style to include these Vegan Kinetics I was thrilled. They wear like the energetics -- but are vegan.

I love these sneakers. They are so comfortable and I love the color. I have never been disappointed with Earth shoes or Zappos.
