Earth® Footwear's Kalso® Negative Heel Technology®

[californiagirl562]

Thank you for this review on damage to your tendons. I just ordered a pair of sandles from HSN and they will go back when I receive them. My dr advisesd prior to this to wear a shoe with a little height to the heel , as I have had problems with my tendons and had p.t. The shoes will go back as soon as I get them. I have been lookin for a shoe with little heel to slip into besides my Birks

Hi aquanet2. So sorry for your experience. While we have heard from countless Earth wearers who have experienced great whole body benefits from wearing our inclined soles, there is a small percentage of people for which the technology is not a great match. Similar to a new workout routine, we suggest that all new Earth wearers break their shoes in slowly to allow their body to adjust.

FYI- I wore earth shoes for about three years and I now have tendonitus in both achillies tendons because the way the shoes are made, with the low heal and the higher toe- it hype-rextends your tendon in the back and after a while, it makes it hard for it to recoil back into place. LIke an over streached elastic. BE WARE OF PERMENANT DAMAGE.
