Earthing Shoes

Why Wear Earthing Shoes?

One way in which we have lost our connection with the Earth is through our modern footwear and insulated lifestyles. Most shoes today are created from synthetics or rubber which puts a barrier between us and the Earth, blocking the flow of beneficial electrons. Primitive cultures live their lives in constant connection with earth by going barefoot or wearing leather soles shoes moccasins or minimalist sandals. By wearing Earthing shoes whilst outdoors you can enjoy the benefits of Earthing which have been medically proven to improve sleep, reduce pain and inflammation, reduce stress and aid with recovery and healing. Although we do not stock Earthing Shoes, we have decided to partner with Earth Runners and promote their minimalist grounded sandals. I completely love my Earth Runners as they are super comfortable, beautifully simple yet also robust and durable. 

Why Earth Runners?

Earth Runners combine the barefoot benefits of earthing shoes with the functionality of minimalist running sandals. They have a custom molded minimalist Vibram sole and a trademark grounded lacing system. The laces feature two parallel stitches of conductive thread up the entire length and are secured to the bottom of the sandal with a copper plug to keep you grounded and provide maximum electron flow. It makes for an incredibly comfortable lacing system that allows for excellent adhesion to the foot while facilitating natural articulation and connection to the earth.

Receiving electrons through our feet is a powerful way for them to travel though our bodies given the feet's capacity to interface as a link to specific organs, bones and body systems. Earth Runners are your do-everything-sandals from an ultra marathon to a stroll in the park. Wearing earthing shoes while exercising outdoors increases your cardiovascular capacity yielding greater endurance. Remaining grounded in nature increases mental clarity and focus while enhancing one’s feeling of connection. 

Another great feature of Earth Runners is that you can not only choose what type of  sandal sole will suit your needs, but the laces can also be ordered in five different color combinations with either a brown leather or a black nylon as the base material and your choice of colored nylon trim. Also for children and people with uniquely proportioned feet, custom made sandals are a great option and you can submit a foot trace and the sandals will be made precisely to fit your feet.
