Vegan Earth Shoes

If you're looking for eco friendly footwear, vegan Earth shoes are the way to go. They're designed with 70% recycled materials, they have a vegan shoes line, and they are built to help tone and strengthen your body.

Vegan Earth Shoes have a special heel technology in which the sole is inclined slight so your toes are higher than your heels. Earth Footwear says that this helps to tone your body and burn calories.

Earth Footwear is made with special foam cushions that mold to the shape of your foot, which helps to absorb the shock of impact with the ground. They have excellent arch support and are great eco friendly shoes since 70% of their material was recycled.

There was a study done that showed that by eating a healthy diet and walking 10,000 steps each day, someone wearing vegan Earth shoes was able to decrease their body fat percentage by 4 times as much than those wearing regular footwear and following the same lifestyle. Those wearing Earth footwear were also able to decrease their body mass and increase their endurance and breathing patterns over the course of the study.*

Keep in mind that these shoes are not cheap, but because they are made of special materials, they will last you longer in the end.

Make sure that when you search, you input the word, "vegan" because Earth Footwear does make some shoes with a leather upper. On their homepage you can even look strictly under the vegan tab. If you're looking for good vegan hiking boots, you can't beat some of the selection that Earth footwear makes. I like the Earth Agatha for women.

I have found a great deal of Earth Shoes on Amazon by entering "vegan earth shoes" or "earth vegan shoes" into their search bar. Planet Shoes also has some great deals and a good selection of options.

*According to www.earthfootwear.com, the study was done by Katy Bowman and results are "based on a 4-week clinical study with 31 female participants who were randomly divided into an Earth footwear user group and a non-Earth footwear user group. Those wearing Earth footwear experienced an average body mass decrease of .41% and, over same period, experienced a higher rate of body fat percentage decrease relative to body mass reduction - an indication of greater muscle development and higher lean body mass (LBM) - that which is widely held to correlate with an increased rate of caloric expenditure (even when the body is at rest). When used as part of an overall healthy regimen that includes proper diet and exercise, Earth footwear could help to burn more calories with every step. Prior to initiating any exercise routine, all individuals should consult a certified physician." © 2008 Earth, Inc.
