Over 40 years ago, Danish yoga guru Anne Kalsø noticed that raising the toes above the heels in what's known as the 'mountain pose' helped deliver a 'mountain' of wellness benefits. Her desire to bring people this fabulous feeling every day led her to create the first Kalsø Earth shoe, now a collection of casual and feminine wellness footwear featuring a signature 'negative heel' to help the body achieve a more natural, aligned position. Put on a pair and 'elevate' your lifestyle to healthier heights!


• Every Kalsø Earth® Shoe features the original 'negative heel' design that sets the wearer's heels slightly lower than the toes at a gentle incline of 3.7°.

• The 'negative heel' design is based on the popular yoga position, Tadasana (the "Mountain pose") which is reputed for its ability to facilitate enhanced respiration.

• By naturally re-positioning the body, and reinforcing the 'negative heel' design with anatomic arch support, walking in Kalsø Earth® Shoes mimics walking barefoot in the sand and can help improve posture and reduce joint stress.




"I must say, I was a bit skeptical before putting them on; however, I know now that I'll never wear another brand." - Jennifer

"Just got my new pair! LOVE THEM! It's been over 30 years since my last pair and I am thrilled. They've certainly come a long way with very soft angles, the originals were hard and unbending. Thanks for keeping up with the Kalsø dream." - Kim

"I started wearing them in the mid-'70's. I fell in love with the way they felt, although they weren't 'stylish' back then. After I wore my first pair out, it took me years to find them again. They are about all I ever wear now." - Valerie
