Earth Shoes, whose full English name is Earth Shoes, is a well-known negative heel shoe brand Earth? owned by Earth, Inc (American Earth Shoes Company). In China, people are usually accustomed to calling them earth shoes, negative heel shoes, negative heel earth shoes, American earth shoes, and ground negative heel shoes. The main feature of Earth shoes is the negative heel design with high front and low back.
3.7° incline (3.7 degree backward tilt technology)
The most decisive feature of the shoe is the patented technology of the recessed heel. The sole of the shoe designed with this technology is slightly backward. Lean so that your toes are 3.7 inches above your heels. This high-front-low angle shifts weight from front to back and can help strengthen and coordinate the body while burning more calories.
Arch support (arch support technology)
In order to improve the patented sunken heel technology, all Earth shoes adopt an arch-strengthening design, which is also one of its distinctive features. The arch support structure maximizes the function of the heel area for a more natural walking motion.
BioFoam(TM) Cushioning (shock-absorbing insole technology)
The fitted soles used in all Earth shoes, together with the BioFoam Cushioning insoles, allow those who wear these shoes to People feel particularly comfortable. This patented material is designed to follow the shape of the foot, reducing and absorbing shock caused by movement with every step.

The impact of shoes on foot health is well known, but this is just one example. To a small extent, it is more reflected in its impact on the overall mechanical state of the human body. Shoes are equivalent to the foundation of a building for people, and they are equally important. Adjusting a person's "foundation" is the most direct means of adjusting the human body's center of gravity and the most fundamental adjustment to the human body's mechanical state.
In the medical field, using special shoes to correct posture has always been the most basic method. They are called orthopedic shoes. The most common ones are height-adding shoes for patients with unequal lower limb lengths, used to correct pelvic tilt. And scoliosis, which is corrected with shoes. Negative heel shoes are a continuation and in-depth study of orthopedic shoes. At the same time, they extend the orthopedic function of shoes into daily life so that they can play a greater role as much as possible. As we all know, lumbar muscle strain, low back and leg pain, intervertebral disc herniation, cervical spondylosis and other diseases are caused by long-term unreasonable posture, so correcting posture must be the most fundamental method and the most targeted rehabilitation method. Orthopedic shoes are irreplaceable. effect. Without improper posture, rehabilitation is impossible. Sports rehabilitation is predicated on correct posture. Otherwise, it will be counterproductive. For example, wearing high heels for rehabilitation exercises will only aggravate the pain, and it is better to rest. This highlights the importance of the foundation. For sports and fitness, the functional design of shoes is equally important. This not only affects the safety of sports, but also directly affects the effectiveness of sports. For patients with flat feet, the importance of shoes goes without saying. The main reason for acquired flat feet is unreasonable shoes. Negative heel shoes truly interpret the most basic logic and principles of shoes and health from the perspective of medicine and human mechanics.
The most famous example of correcting the foundation is the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. When the tilt worsened and was on the verge of collapse, correcting the foundation saved it. In order to prevent the Leaning Tower of Pisa from continuing to tilt to the south, experts evacuated soil from under the foundation on the north side to relatively lift the foundation on the south side, forcing the center of gravity of the leaning tower to move in the opposite direction and return to a safe range. In the construction industry, this method is called the "foundation stress relief method" and is widely used and plays a huge role in saving endangered buildings. Negative heel shoes also lower the height of the foundation in the opposite direction and are used for posture correction and rehabilitation exercises.
Negative-heeled shoes are contrary to existing fashion, but it should be pointed out that fashion is often contrary to health. Some diseases are even directly caused by fashion. The most typical one is that high heels are easy to Causes low back pain and herniated discs.
Patients with disc herniation should not wear any shoes with heels. It is common knowledge that high heels are harmful. Mid-heeled shoes and wedge-heeled shoes have the same function. They both move the center of gravity forward, which can easily lead to increased spinal curvature. Compared with high heels, it is only a degree. Problem, and academic circles have long pointed out that mid-heeled shoes are good for health is pseudoscience. This unfavorable factor is easy to be ignored, and for patients with intervertebral disc herniation, it is even worse. For this reason, Science and Technology Daily specially reminds "Shoes for Lumbar Disc Herniation Must Be Rational", and patients who need rehabilitation exercises should pay more attention. The spine of the human body is on the back. Only when the center of gravity is also on the back can the spine maintain a straight posture. This is determined by the structure of the human body and is also the simplest explanation of the principle of negative heel shoes.
