aboutOverlær. Festet med reim bak hæl. Spenner på hver side. Skåret tresåle. Pålimt, tykk gummisåle under. Skoen er formet slik at man har hælen lavere en fotballene (negativ hæl).
Tidligere bruker kjøpte disse på 1970-tallet. "Falt fullstendig for dem i en butikk i storgata på Lillehammer". Brukte dem ikke mye. Ubehagelige - "misforstått fotform".

What are Earth Shoes? They were the first shoes to be marketed with a "negative heel"-meaning their heels were actually lower than their raised toes. This was said to mimic the effect of walking in sand and to make for orthopedically superior posture. In appearance, Earth Shoes pioneered the flanged, boxy look that epitomized much '70s design and can be seen in such later icons of the decade as Bruce Jenner's hair and the A.M.C. Pacer.Designed in 1957 by a Copenhagen yoga instructor named Anne Kals?, the shoes were first marketed in the U.S. under license by Raymond and Eleanor Jacobs in 1970.
