These Earth shoes arrived in a timely manner, and packaging was fine.  The shoes looks OK, but was disappointed that Earth no longer packages like they use to.  No cute burlap bags to enclose the shoes, just some "biodegradable" plastic bags, and no little Earth card telling me 5% of their sales go to environmental causes to save the Planet. Nope, and my biggest disappointment? Finding out these shoes and the "Earth" shoes I bought 4 years ago were being made in China.  That little USA label in the shoe?  Says, "Designed in the USA".  That USA label peels off.  The Shoes are made in China.
My discovery that one more beloved item is manufactured in China has just turned me off from the Earth Shoe.  It's going back.  It's not the same Earth Shoe I used to buy over 10 years ago, and putting that little USA sticker in the shoe to make people think it's USA made? Not a good thing, especially if people actually read the inside of their shoes.  It is not the same Earth Shoe quality of it's original design from the 70's.  In fact the quality and packaging isn't the same as it was 4 years ago.
