These shoes have special soles and according to reviews, they’re very comfortable. The shoe fanatic in me decided to feature them because they look cool and can be scooped up at a decent price … right now the Earth Gladiator Sandal is available in either snakeskin or red for $79.99 (reduced from $139.99) and the kicker is, shipping is only 99 cents through Sunday, August 8 (on ANY purchase btw) at Gaiam.com.

They’re made of 70% recycled material and the Biofoam sole is specially designed to: absorb and displace shock, reduce joint stress, strengthen and tone legs and – get this – maximize calorie burn. How do they do it? Toes are positioned 3.7 degrees higher than your heel via the Kalso Negative Heel Technology employed. Note: according to one reviewer, they run big so you may want to order a half size smaller. If you order, let us know what you think.
