This is a great MBT walking shoe for someone unfamiliar with the MBT style and shape. I wear these around the house and out – aside from fitness walking and they’re very comfortable. I feel as if these shoes really help my posture and fitness. Order a 1/2 size up!

I have plantar fasciitis..I received these shoes as a gift from my mother after a grocery shopping excursion that left me in tears wearing my (then beloved) Ascics running shoes. Before I started wearing these “anti-shoes” I would spend a vast majority of my day in severe pain and the rest just trying to avoid walking altogether (as a mother of 5 – yes 5 – kids that’s not an easy feat!). When I started wearing these wonderful shoes I was almost immediately able to resume normal activity with little to no pain whatsoever. The only time I have pain now is when I go barefoot at home all day or if I MUST wear other shoes for a dressier occasion. They aren’t very pretty (in fact I find them quite unattractive), but the comfort of these shoes far outweighs the unappealing exterior. As an experiment, I went 2 days without my MBTs, wearing my Merrils instead, and VERY MUCH regretted it! They ARE quite expensive (and I freely admit that I would NEVER have gotten past the price if my mother hadn’t surprised me with them), but I fully intend to buy a couple (dressier) pairs in the future. I can tell you that if you have chronic foot pain, these shoes will be your relief!

I was hesitant to spend this kind of money on walking shoes but I’ve always been a fitness buff and wanted to give them a try. I tried a pair on in the store and immediately was impressed with how they worked. They do look a bit strange on but I get lots of questions when people see me wearing it. I can definitely feel the difference when walking in them and I can’t wait to explore a city by foot one day to really get the advantages of the shoe.

The moment I put these shoes on, they changed my life! No more back pain and foot pain. The balance is different but I got used to it immediately. Improved posture and mobility right in the store after terrible foot pain for years. The price is hefty but worth every penny. I found out later that some people buy these for fitness reasons but, for me, that is just a bonus but NOT the reason I purchased them! I tried to go easy at first to get used to them as recommended but found I didn’t need to or want to because of the foot relief I was feeling. I have had them for almost two months and still love them. I think they will last a long time so are a good investment. I can’t wait to get a 2nd pair so I can alternate them but my budget is dead after the first pair.
