My 20 yr old daughter got these and had not been familiar with the "earth" style of shoe where the heel is slightly lower than the ball of the foot. She loves them, and they are very stylish. All the straps adjust to get a perfect fit. True to size. Very cute!

These are my second pair of Earth shoes and they work wonders for my back. Sitting at my desk all day is torture for my body (yours too!) so getting a bit more space in my back while walking in these is really therapeutic. This style is prettier than my first pair and stays on better (with more straps). I found the solid leather heels rub blisters at first, but a little moleskin and some time and I'm good to go now. great shoes.

I've not worn negative heel shoes before so when I first put these on I wasn't sure I would like them, but after wearing them around the house for a few minutes, I fell in love. They have a true arch support, and the rocker bottom takes only a few steps to get accustomed to. They are completely adjustable which is great for my bony feet. I think I will be able to walk in these all day and not have a problem with my plantar fascitis. And they are really cute, and a steal, too! I would have ordered more of these in different colors if they had been available.

I have very picky feet and was a little nervous about buying these before trying them on (although I have 3 other pairs of earth shoes that I have loved to death), but they are working out beautifully. They're comfortable, and getting more so all the time as I break them in, and best of all they are gorgeous shoes that I don't have to pay for with foot pain! I don't think they'd be great for long distance walking or hiking (but who knows, maybe as I break them in they will be!) And of course a great deal considering the original $149 price tag. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who loves Earth's negative heel and wants a gorgeous sandal!
Answer
All four straps have a hook and loop closure for adjustment.

Question
“Is the insole, upon which my foot would rest, leather or synthetic? (Getting conflicting info elsewhere and would like to order these.) STP states the lining is leather, which I take to be the inside of the straps. There is no mention of the insole/footbed material, which I'd like to know. Thanks.”

Answer
The top layer is leather, the footbed/insole is quite thick and spongy, so there is some other kind of material under the thin leather top layer.
