This, compiled with the usual fluid retention that happens during pregnancy, can result in pain and the inability to wear regular shoes.

Because Earth shoes offer an extra wide toe box and several slip-on styles, with adjustability features such as straps and elasticized stretch gores, they are an excellent option for those suffering from this affliction.

Earth offers wide widths in their most popular styles and colors.

During the last two trimesters of pregnancy, a woman's center of gravity shifts and she can lose her balance more easily.

Earth shoes provide a flat and stable base on which to walk, making it a suitable shoe to wear when walking briskly for exercise, too.

Even after the baby is born, the shoes provide the perfect foundation for a new mother who is often juggling a baby, a baby bag and a purse.

"'Foot fatigue' and flat feet are very prevalent in pregnant women, so she recommends a comfortable shoe with specific benefits and that also carries the American Podiatric Medical Association Seal of Acceptance like Earth," said Carolyn Siegal, Beverly Hills podiatrist and attending physician at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Siegal also recommends getting regular foot massages in conjunction with wearing "healthy" shoes during pregnancy.

Celebrity mothers who have embraced the Earth brand include Diane Lane, Jennie Garth, Mariel Hemingway, Keely Shaye Smith, Gwyneth Paltrow and Cheryl Hines.

Earth has been in the shoe business since the early 1970's. Company is a family owned and operated Company, with many of their associates feeling part of that family.

For many years, they designed and manufactured shoes for the most famous brands, and they take great pride in making superior footwear products.
