If only every pair of heels felt this good…
Like most women, I sacrifice some comfort for fabulous footwear. Cause come now ladies — we all love a gorgeous pair of shoes!
So, when Earth. Inc sent me a pair of boots, the Ramini style, from their new Earthies® collection, I was in shock when I slipped in my foot. The leather was buttery soft, and the fit was absolutely perfect. My foot literally felt cradled. Could these boots be for real?
Well, a week later I put my Earthies to the test and took them to Blissdom Canada — and we know a conference is hardest on a woman’s feet!
Not only did I wear these comfortable boots contentedly all day, but that day included roaming the streets of Toronto. Yes, the first time I wore these babies, I walked for hours without any pain or discomfort. Boot heaven.
Every Earthies® comfortable heel or comfortable wedge features a unique wellness footbed with a cupped heel, anatomic arch support, and cradle toe area.
And, arguably just as important, these comfortable boots are beautiful too! I have received numerous compliments on them — and Susan, my twin sister and co-founder here at 5 Minutes for Mom, is very jealous I got them and she didn’t! (Yes, I will share. But only a little.)
The Earthies® collection is not inexpensive — these are high quality shoes and boots. But when it comes to footwear, you definitely get what you pay for. I am totally impressed with Earthies and I just wish I could have ten more of their designs!
WIN a Pair of Earthies®
Yes — one of you will be walking in stylish comfort in your own pair of Earthies®.
Leave a comment and tell us which style is your favorite. We’ll draw a random comment number to win a pair of Earthies. Open only to residents of the United States.
This giveaway will end on December 30th, 2011 at midnight ET and a winner will be chosen at random and announced shortly after. Please see our site’s terms and conditions for more information.

DEFINITELY the ones you got (Ramini)…love the black and extra coverage to
keep the tootsies warm!
I love the Raphaelle! And I love comfortable boots! I would love to win a pair!!
The Raminis you got look awesome! I also like the Lintz.
I like the Rochelle style
I love the Raphaelle!
I love the Ramini boot and the whole collection of clogs!
I like the Lintz – very edgy but cute!
I really liked a lot of their styles, but would love the Lacarne!
These look awesome!!! They are all so cute, but I love the Lacarne style – buckles and studs – so fun!
Love the Fabienne boots. So cute!
I love the Rochelle clogs
I like the ones you’re wearing – Ramini
I liked a lot of the styles, but think the ones you got, the Ramini, are the cutest!
I love the Ramini as seen in your picture but the Raphaelle caught my attention when I viewed the entire collection. Maybe its my inner French coming out
My favorite is definitely the Fabienne. I love boots but have yet to find one that feels like you described. Thanks for sharing!
I LOVE the Seriph! So hard to choose. They look wonderfully comfortable. Thanks for sharing!
Wow, it’s so hard to pick, especially with this awesome review. I really like what you’re wearing, Ramini, plus the Lintz and Jasko.
Holy cuteness! I love the Lintz boots in pine. But it’s a tough call!
I love the Montera Boot. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Really? Pick a favorite?? Is that possible?
I LOVE the Lintz boots…but those Montera boots are super cute too!!
I’m totally loving the Raphaelle. But all their styles are really cute. I think those are my favorite though.
Wow, I can’t pick just one! Love the “Ramini”, “Lintz”, and the “Raphaelle”.
My favorite (although it was very hard to just pick one!) is the Fabienne!
The Raphaelle is my favorite!
The Ramini looks great, but I only want boots for deep snow, so the Raphaelle is more practical.
I like the Talera!
Too many good choices! I really like the Raphaelle and Rochelle!
The Larissa is my favorite shoe. My favorite boot is the Seriph.
My favorite boot is the Ramini in black while my favorite shoe is the Halley in dark taupe. Either would look spectacular with my moss green skirt/grey taupe cardigan.
Those Montera boots are HOT! I’ll take those in every color you can think of
I’m not usually a wedge fan, but I LOVE the Raphaelle!!
The Lintz boots are so awesome but it was hard to pick just one! lol
I just love the Raphaelle boots, they’re all me.
My fav is the Ramini but I like the Lintz too.
I love them all!!
Sarenza! These truly are the most comfortable heels.
who could choose a fav?
I love both Halley and Raphele. They are sexy and comfortable at the same time. I can walk and stand for quite sometime in these.
It’s so hard to chose one. I love the sarenza, raphaelle, and the cristiana’s. They are all high quality and very impressive. I would love to have a pair of each!

I love the montera boot in red! Fabulous! PS – I love the Earthies I already have, soooo comfy!
LOVE the Veria sooo comfortable and yet stylish at the same time you can wear them with jeans or dress up and go out on the town!!
Love the Lindz
The Ramini would be my number one choice. I also like the Rochelle.
The Seriph is down right gorgeous! It looks warm yet sexy and sheek! In Oregon sheek and fucntioning is hard to find! Lovely selection.
I like the Sarenza in Black. Very cute and comfy looking.
These boots are cute! The Ramini
I love the Fabienne boots!!
I really like the Halley . Easy to slide your foot into seaburd at comcast.net
I’ve been scouring the internet for a pair of comfortable but cute black heels or boots to wear with my skirts and dresses- I stumbled across this website looking for organizing tips and ended up subscribing to your newsletter- and best of all- I was so pleased to find there was a brand out there that promised comfort and yet offered a lot of style- my choice would be the Halley or the Barina though I have to admit the Ramini, as everyone says, is REALLY cute-
I love both the Ramini & the Fabienne but I think the Fabienne are my favorite. Thanks for the chance to win.
Wow, I’ve not heard of these shoes before! They look pretty darn amazing. I have been thinking I need a new pair of black strappy dress shoes, so I pick Saravena. Thanks for the giveaway!
i like the Fabienne boots
I could easily see myself in the ‘Modesto’. I love the Raphaelle boots too. I just don’t know if I’m a boot person or a wannabe boot person.
I love the Ramini boot! It’s a lovely cross of modern with a touch of Victorian and they are GORGEOUS! I would so love to wear them with opaque tights and cute dresses and skirts.
katina
I’m in LOVE with the Bali. Oh my goodness!!
Thanks for the chance!! *fingers crossed* and good luck all.
But, as far boots, I think the Raphaelle are my favorite.
What a hard decision, but I just had to choose the Riviera clog…loving them.
I want win
Whoa, great giveaway!! I like the Barina style a lot, probably in the gray… Thanks for hosting!
Love my Sarenza’s! They are so comfortable and I get compliments on them all the time! The construction of Earthies have really helped me wear stylish shoes since my knee surgery.
Great article! My feet always hurt, so I would love a pair of Earthies Santiago (they look hot, too!).
Raphaelle Boots are my favorite
I like the fabienne the best but the boots you are wearing are probably my second choice. They are all super cute!
Raminis. Love the lace up!
I really like many of the shoes, but my favorite boot is the Lintz. Very cool with the straps, and the color is great.
The Rochelle is adorable! I’m glad I read about the Earthies, I didn’t know they were from Earth (one of my favorite brands).
In the current collection, Barina
I am digging those Ramini boots! Super cute!!
Definitely the Ramini boots! all the way.
I like the black Lintz!
I love the Fabienne! They are trendy and so cute with the slouch look goin on!!!
Lintz – Love em!
The Earthies Lacerne boots are fabulous!
The Raphaelle in Pine looks AMAZING!
Raminis look like they would fit my wide calf with the lace up. Love eartg shoes.
Jasko is my fav. great shoes all around1
The grey Jasko boots are really cute.
I like the Lacarne style the best!
It’s a tossup between te Ramini or the Montera. So! Cute!
I love the Santiago snake skin style! Completely outside my normal style, so I would love to try it. Thanks for offering this giveaway.

These are so cute, it is so hard to find cute /sexy boots that are ALSO comfortable! (and you look adorable in those btw!) I love all of them ALL, tough choice! But, I think the Sarenza’s are my most fave, due to the vintage type of style. Never seen anything like them, love them! Thanks for the opportunity!

Thanks so much for the chance!!
raphaelle look awesome
The Fabienne is my favorite. Thanks for the chance.
Lacarne it is…but they do have so many cute shoes!!
I’m torn between the Capri, the Cristiana and the Raphaella – but given that we’re heading into winter, I guess I’d have to say the Raphaella…PLEASE
I like the Javelle in Black. Look like you could wear them anywhere. Subscribe via email, twitter and like on FB
I love the Montera and also the one you are wearing, the Ramini.
I love the Ramini, just like your post.
The Maressa pair looks so comfortable! I am a working mom of 4 and I come home exhausted and ready to take care of my family. These shoes spare no style and look like you could walk for miles in them! I want them!
I love all of them, but Fabiene would b my fav! I am a cosmetologist, and would love to have a cute/stylist and comfy shoes to stand in all day! Not to mention advertise a fabulous shoe. I do wear Danskos, but they r not always the most stylish, so a comfy pair of boots to wear withleggins or skinny jeans would be awesome.
Freiburg in brown. So cute!
Jasko in black are so cool!!
I LOVE the Ramini boots. I have been looking for boots like those for a long time.
I like the Raphaelle, but really I LOVE the same pair you received, the Ramini!
I really love the clogs rochelle.
liked on fb
You are definitely rocking those! But picking a favorite Earthies is much like picking a favorite child, how on ‘earth’ (seriously, no pun intended) do you do that?
If I were forced it would be the ‘Veria’ style, that red is SMOKING hot!
Lintz in black
I am absolutely in LOVE with the Fabienne! Such a gorgeous boot and I’m sure it’s super comfy
These look great, and comfortable looking too.
I like the Rochelle!
I love the Seriph
I usually do not wear anything with a heel due to my bad feet but if your shoes/boots are as comfortable as people are saying I would love to try a pair. The Cristiana and Sarenza would be my choice, I believe.
I love the Bali – what a great shoe for Texas weather.
I love the Ramini style so cute
I have to with Ramini. My 3 year old busted the seam while playing in my black boots over Thanksgiving…
My wife would love the Raphaelle boots

certainly like your web site but you need to check the spelling on quite a few of your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling issues and I find it very troublesome to tell the truth nevertheless I will definitely come back again.
