Customer Reviews Kalso Earth Lazer K - Vegan

The most comfortable shoe ever - We were in Key West on vacation, walking along Duval St. doing a little shopping. A store with an Earth Shoe display caught my eye because I have been wearing them on and off since college in the 1970's. I tried on this strange looking shoe that looked like it had fish gills all over it (the ventilation holes) and found that it was the lightest and most comfortable thing I had ever worn. My wife did not own a single pair of Earth shoes but bought a pair of these right away.

Scott from IL - Great shoes. Fit perfectly to my size. Do take a little to get used to but once you do, you'll love them for long walks. I consistently take 6-8 mile walks and have no problems. Highly recommended.

I love these Earth Shoes!!!! They are the lightest, most comfortable shoes on the market. I took off my expensive Nikes and put these on in NYC. With the Nikes, my back felt like it was breaking by the end of the day. With the Earth shoes, nada! I felt great!

Earth Lazer right on target - This shoe feels great, although, the lightness of it took me by surprise. It’s comfortable and I feel my posture improving. I would definitely by another pair. The only drawback is that it's made in China.

Better Than Expected - I ordered these based on an ad in Airplane Skymall magazine despite my doubts. At first wearing I found my back hurt but I persevered and now find them extremely comfortable. They are very light. I wondered why they had laces since they are slip-ons but realized laces are for adjusting the fit. All in all these are a great buy! Give them a try!

Great Shoes! These are the best shoes ever! Very light weight and very comfortable. Great fit and the soles are great! My husband loves them!

These shoes are awesome! I am so impressed with these shoes. The Earth shoes I've bought in the past were a bit heavy, clunky, and didn't breathe too well. These are stylish, light as a feather, super-comfy and flexible all around, and they manage moisture quite well. I have been through a lot of so-so vegan shoes, but these are superb!

A therapeutic, stylish shoe. Shoe is perfect as to size correctness. I have worn Finn (expensive German Imports) shoes for the past few years due to chronic, very painful plantar fasciitis. This shoe places the foot in a completely unstressed position. Hence, no pain. Ingenious design, reasonable price. I will order more. If, orthotics are an issue, you won't need them with these shoes.

Great for work - I purchased these shoes for my husband who works on his feet in an x-ray dept. in a hospital. His feet and legs get tired, but not anymore! He says these are the most comfortable shoes he has ever owned. We live in a cold/wet climate and they've been great for our weather also. They pack easily and go with jeans or nicer casual wear equally well.

As soft as a cushion - This shoe is very nice and comfortable. The heel part being lower helps my feet and back.

Amazing - These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. Light as a feather, but they have amazing support. I have high arches and wide feet: fit like a glove. Make sure you go down half a size. Look at the sole in the picture, the shoes work just as you'd imagine. A++++++ as they say on eBay.

Comfort!!! While I had wanted a business shoe and therefore something dressier, I was extremely pleased by the comfort of this shoe... I love not wearing shoes and this shoe is about as close to that as I have found. I have arch pronation (flat feet) and the support in this is great! The fact that it is made with no animal products is also something that appeals tremendously. Please try to expand your line of vegetarian/vegan clothing...

Comfortable shoe - The shoe is very comfortable to walk around in. I work on my feet all day and my old shoes made my feet hurt all the time - not a problem with these Earth shoes. The flexibility of the sole takes a little time to get used to, but it is worth it. I did notice some discomfort when walking a lot on steep inclines - the soft sides of the shoes were not sturdy enough to support the side of my foot and ankle when I was standing at a sharp angle. If you do any kind of job like mowing on hills, then I would look for a sturdier Earth shoe - but for more level ground and standing on concrete all day, this shoe is fantastic.

Good, but over-hyped - I agree with a reviewer that said these don't breathe enough. If the temperature is near or above 65 degrees or you move around a lot, your feet will get very hot with or without socks. They feel best when the outside air is around 45 or 50 degrees. Otherwise a very comfortable and lightweight shoe. Considering purchasing Earth's new gym shoe, but I fear they'll overheat like these. My foot is not as wide as some people, so the extra width inside isn't a big selling point for me… but might be for you. I just can't get as excited about these shoes.

A very good shoe. I try my best not to buy leather products. It may seem as if there are any number of leather-free choices, but I find that it's not that easy to find shoes that fit well, lean toward a classic shoe style, and last. So far, my Earth shoes have done just that. Although I could have done without the stitched Earth logo and the half-moon perforated pattern cuts in the shoe, I’m planning on soon ordering a brown pair.

Did not Work for Me - My friend just bought Earth Lazer and is crazy about them. I checked Zappos and they were least expensive, so I gave them a try. They were a little too large, I guess. Felt like my feet were swimming in them with not enough support. Squishy. Gave me a backache when I stood in them for a while. I do have a spine problem, so maybe negative heel Earth shoe is not best for me. I am looking at Clarks Xterra. I have an old, brown pair of Clarks and still love them. Just wanted a black shoe.

Fantastic Lazer K - My partner loves these Earth's Lazer K - Vegan...comfortable and like no other shoe in the world...

Not bad. . . This was a good shoe for traveling, especially during a walking-intensive vacation. The only downside is that the shoes held the dirt and looked bad quite quickly.

Vegan Earth Shoe - A Hit! While admittedly not the most handsome shoe in the world (neither was its predecessor from my youth), this shoe wears well and does in fact make your walking more comfortable. I am using mine with my orthotic inserts with excellent results. The Vegan thing is lost on me, oh! But the Earth shoe design is still very cool after all these years. Buying more.

Good shoe; does make your body feel better - Seems to actually do what it claims. I feel much better on the weekends when I get to wear these shoes rather than work shoes.

Not a replacement for the Leather Upper Energetic - A light shoe is always desirable. On the other hand the materials used, may not hold your foot as well as the leather upper shoe. I love Earth shoes and sometimes I get into problems assuming that all Earth shoes are created equally excellent. Then, Earth comes up with new models, this is good, but they may not fit so well or then discontinues other excellent models, this is bad. Wide Energetic’s seem to have been discontinued, as well as some sandal models that are excellent. The savior is Zappos. Their system allows me to return shoes that I don't like and then try another model which fits perfectly such as my Earth Colorado of which I bought two pairs. Earth shoes may change, but Zappos, please don't.

Too much sole - These shoes are very light and comfortable. The low heel takes a bit getting used to them for walking. After a bit they do feel very natural. The unique sole and heel with the VERY DEEP grooves which allow for maximum flexibility and packability also allow undesirable intrusions. I was standing and walking in a gravel covered area. I felt I had a small stone in my shoe under my heel. Twice I removed the shoe and shock it to dislodge the intruder. That did not work. Finally I felt around with my finger and found a sharp something coming right out of the insole. I turned the shoe over and found a sliver of gravel lodged in the deep shoe grove and it had penetrated the thin layer of heel under the insole. I had to dig out that piece of gravel and a few more stuck in the deep groves of the sole and heel. I guess it could have been worse. I could have stepped in doggy doo-doo with those deep and penetrable grooves. Yuck!!

Lazer K - Vegan review - I felt that the fit would be better if the opening for the ankle was larger and not so close fitting.

After working 8 hrs a day I kept getting foot pains with these shoes. I was looking for a comfortable shoe and this wasn’t it. Also, where fabric in the back is connected to the sole, ripped after about a month. These are also far from waterproof. Plus, I kept getting rocks really deep in the tread.
