I love the Earth Solar shoe and hope they do not alter or discontinue it! I find it to be a great blend of cute style with good quality and comfort. I have sensitive feet and am careful to wear shoes with good arch support since I have high arches and have had Plantar fasciitis in the past. In terms of comfort and support, my New Balance 991s with PowerStep inserts are the best--these Earth Solars are not quite as comfortable and supportive as that, but for a cute shoe to wear with either jeans, a skirt, or work trousers, they are as awesome and never cause me foot or back pain!

Earth Solar I have owned a pair of Solar shoes for five years and love them. They are my basic town shoes. When I know that I will be standing all day I choose this shoe. Then, I know that I will be comfortable and not have foot problems. Earth shoes are only shoes I wear since their design makes it impossible for foot to slide back and forth in shoe as I walk. This stops irritation of the bone at the base of my big toe. Earth shoes also have a lot of cushion and support. I just bought another pair of Solar Shoes to put in storage in case they stop making this design.

love these shoes, the sole is very cushy and flexible and the toe area is very roomy. I had been having knee pains, which led me to try earth 'negative-heel' shoes. Since I've started wearing these knee pain is gone (and calves are sore, I'm hoping they're getting nice & toned)! I have wide feet and am used to having my toes crunched together. The top strap is very narrow, so tends to dig in if you strap it even just a little too tight.

I had never ordered from Zappos before, just browsed, but my daughter-in-law raved about them. She sent me a gift certificate, and I bought these, and LOVE them. They felt very true to size, were comfortable, practical, and stylish. A win-win.

Very comfortable and stylish, high quality shoe. Great for working on your feet. I wear them with scrubs and they are super cute. Very easy to break in.

I love the Earth Solar shoes. They give me good heel support, and lots of room for the toes. Just what my arthritic feet need. I hope the company continues making this style. Thanks also to Zappos for great service!!

These are my work shoes, I'm a dental hygienist, but wear other Earth shoes for casual wear. I've had them about a month and am very pleased. No break in period, I wear short, thin socks with them, and have gotten several compliments. They don't seem easy to scuff up and are very comfortable, but a bit heavier than expected.

Ok, I\'m old enough to remember wearing Earth shoes in the 70\'s, and these are every bit as comfortable as I remember. You can\'t see it well in the photos, but the stitching down the middle on the top stops just short of the edge of the shoe. This offers a lot of give across the ball of your foot. If you are getting bunions I would recommend this shoe. It is comfortable with or without socks. I\'m on my feet a lot and comfortable shoes are a must. I wear them with my skinny jeans and they look really great.

The most comfortable shoes I\'ve ever worn! The negative heel has helped to relieve my leg fatigue and back discomfort too. I would definitely recommend these to anyone!

I love these shoes! I teach and they keep my legs from getting tired. They are extremely comfortable, too! I have an old pair (5years) that are black and I wear them all the time, so much that I decided I had to have a brown pair, too!

Listen up, ladies! You've heard about Earth shoes, and maybe even had a pair back in the day, the day when they shouted 'hippy' all over the place. I never had any then. I was not a hippy and am not one now. Look at this style. It's sophisticated. Yet, and believe me, I'm picky about comfort in shoes, these shoes are comfortable to the max. I love wearing them. And another thing, I tend to beat up my shoes by walking my dogs and being walked on by them. These shoes clean up beautifully. They don't shout 'hippy' or even 'old lady', which is what I am. Get some! Try them out! You will certainly not regret it. Everybody in their 5" heels will die of envy! They are a little generous as to size, so don't order larger.

I absolutely adore these shoes! They came the day after I ordered them and fit great right out of the box. I can't stop showing them off to everyone! I usually having trouble finding shoes that don't rub my heels, but I have no complaints with these. Fantastic.

I love these shoes! I have plantar fasciitis, so it is very difficult for me to find shoes that fit and don\'t hurt my feet. Earth shoes are the best I\'ve tried. \r\nThe only negative with these is the strap isn\'t long enough for me. I have thick ankles, and the straps fasten, but for me they should have been about an inch longer. You can\'t see it unless you look at them really closely, so no one knows but me.\r\n

Took a little getting used to having my heel against the back. My heel was raw the first 3 times I wore them, but now I find them comfortable.

I bartended and waited tables in the red (earlier) version of this shoe for over a year. Cute shoes, good for the feet, too. The black ones were a little stiffer and I had to go through the normal few blisters. But now they feel great. I'm waiting tables again. Cool to find a pair of shoes that are cute and comfortable, if even good for my feet! They run a little big which is great for me as I would wear the non-existent size 10.5. I took the ten and they fit great.

I just got these shoes and they are so cute. Very disappointed because the reviews said to order a size smaller and for me that was just not true. I am reordering in my real size and I guess we sill see.

I don\'t like ordering shoes without trying them on first but because of Zappos free shipping offer I thought I\'d give it a try. I was very happy with the shoes that I ordered, they fit perfectly and they are very comfortable.

Earth Solar is really a great shoe. Fits true to size and very comfortable. I have Morton's neuroma and thought an Earth shoe would help this problem. It did. I can not wear shoes with out being in extreme pain until I got this pair of shoes. I am now searching for a good pair of workout shoes and have tried some of the Earth walking shoes, but they just don't seem to fit the same as the Solar.

These shoes are comfortable but after wearing them a couple of days. The negative heel takes some getting used to. I like the strap as it is back towards the ankle. I have a tattoo on the top of my foot and did not want any straps or part of the shoe shoe to rub on it as it heals. With Zappos free shipping and returns I thought, what did I have to lose. I bought these in Black and brown and I will purchase Earth brand shoes again.

These guys rock! I placed my order on Sunday evening. I immediately received an email confirmation stating they received the order and were updating the shipping to 2 day. I received my shoes in 2 days. The shoes fit great and were a lot cheaper in price than other places. Excellent service. I will only buy my shoes from this company from now on.

The shoes are great. I had foot surgery in March and was looking for a comfortable shoe that could be worn with a suit or skirt. The shoe has style and the negative heel made walking no problem for my healing foot. An added plus is better posture.

I work in an office with concrete floors, and these shoes are a pleasure to wear. They are by far the most comfortable work-appropriate shoes I\'ve owned in a long time. The arch support is great, but they are wide on my slightly narrow feet. They look a bit clunky and masculine, but you get lots of comfort to make up for that.

I have these shoes in two colors, black and white. They go with anything casual and are exceptional for work. There is a learning curve with Earth shoes, because of the Kalso negative heel plane, but it is well worth it.

This is the second pair of this shoe I have bought. I wanted another pair in Black, but this was the only color left in my size, 12. I bought them anyway. These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. The backward tilt makes my back feel at ease and my calf muscles can act as they are supposed to. The velcro adjustable strap is comfortable and necessary to keep the shoe on. I have ordered and returned three other Earth styles. They were slip ons and I walked out of the back of them. I sincerely hope that this style, or one very similar, continues to be available from Earth.
