Frequently Asked Questions

We thought it would be helpful if we put all these on one page.
 
If your questions or concerns are not addressed here - please email to megan@myveganshoes.com

Q You don't have a store. Can you ship shoes to the US?

A Yes, we ship WORLDWIDE. Delivery times to the US can be as little as 5 days!

You can view our website in US Dollars by changing the basket currency - you'll find this at the top right hand side of our homepage. Best of all, we don't have to charge UK sales tax outside the EU, so you can knock 17.5% off the prices shown!

Q Why do you have so many Earth styles available in only UK half sizes? And which size should I order?

A  The conversion between Earth US sizes and UK sizes is 2.5 sizes for Ladies, and half a size for Men's - we will be carrying more full UK sizes in the future. For now, order up to the next half size - eg if you are usually a UK5, go up to a UK5.5, instead of down to a UK4.5.

Q How do I clean my Earth Vegan Shoes?

A
We find that a mild detergent (Fairy Liquid) and a soft cloth should be sufficient. Alternatively, some of our customers have told us that gentle Baby wipes are perfect for the job.

Q I have wide feet, will your shoes fit me?
 
Our shoes are designed to fit standard widths, some people find it more comfortable to go up to the next size if they have a wide foot.
 
Q I have narrow feet, will your shoes slip off my feet?
 
A Some people with narrow feet do find any shoes slip off. We have found that heel grips (widely available from chemists) may solve the problem.
 
Q Can I wear inner soles or orthotics with your shoes?
A Our manufacturers do not advise that inner soles or orthotics are worn with our shoes. The shoes are already orthopedically shaped, and you may find you do not need your orthotics. Any change to the shape of the shoe may negate some of the positive effects of the shoes.

Q. Can I wear my Earth Vegan shoes all day?
A. Yes, if you find them comfortable - there is no reason why not. As with any shoes, you may prefer to wear them in for short periods until you are used to them.

 
Q My Earth shoes have given me a blister/rubbed my feet. Can I keep wearing them?
A No. Earth are no different to any other new shoes, and may cause blisters or rub the feet if worn for too long. Allow the blister to fully heal before wearing your shoes again and then wear them in for shorter periods until your feet become accustomed to them.

Q I have a medical condition affecting my lower body, and I am not sure if I should wear Earth. What should I do?

A As you would expect, we can't offer medical advice. Ask your specialist or consultant to look at the information on our website, or supply them with some printed off information pages, to enable them to better advise you.
 
Q I'm pregnant. Can I still wear your shoes?
Yes you can.
Q How do I return my shoes to exchange for another size ?
A Please refer to our returns policy
 
Q How long does will it take for my shoes to arrive once they have been shipped?
A Please see our information on shipping
 
Q My Vegan shoes haven't arrived, although the tracker says they have been shipped to me?
Are you certain your Postman hasn't tried to deliver them whilst you weren't home? Some Postal Services do not always leave a card to say they have tried to deliver to you. Check with your local Post Office parcel section first to re-schedule delivery.
 
Q How do I find out if my shoes are in stock.
There is a regularly updated shipping and stock availability section on the site.
 
Q I need to return my shoes, but have thrown the box away. What shall I do?
A Please try and keep the original box. If you do not have the original box, please find an alternative, but this may affect how we deal with your return. Please do not return shoes in a plastic bag only as they may get damaged and we may not be able to process your return or exchange.
 
Q My shoes hurt. What shall I do?
A Take off your shoes. Try again for a shorter period of time the next day and gradually increase the wearing time each day.
 
Q I wore my shoes all day yesterday. I have stiff muscles in my lower body today. Is this normal?
You will probably have used muscles that may have been unused for a while! If you feel uncomfortable, don't wear your shoes until the stiffness has gone.Wear your shoes for shorter periods and build up the length of time you wear them gradually.
 
Q I really want to get going with my Earth Vegan shoes. Can I wear them all day?
A There is no reason why not - but you can judge if you feel any discomfort of any kind, try wearing your Earth shoes for short periods and build up the length of time, until they have worn in and softened a little. Once your feet are used to them, you may wear them for as long as you are comfortable.
