MBT shoes are physiological footwear--the first footwear that has a positive effect on the entire body. MBT stands for "Masai Barefoot Technology." Their innovative design includes a multi-layered, curved sole which makes for a unique and rewarding walking experience. The key to MBT is its patented sole structure. The shank, PU midsole with Pivot and the Masai Sensor create a soft surface that is akin to walking barefoot on springy moss or on a sandy beach. This creates a natural instability underfoot, which activates the supporting muscle system and has positive effects on the entire body. Wearing MBTs significantly improves your gait and posture and relieves pressure on your joints and back. It also exercises a large number of muscles, whether you're walking or standing. This, in turn, stimulates your metabolism, burns extra calories and speeds up muscle regeneration. In addition, MBTs can have a firming effect on abdominal, leg and buttock muscles. Wearing MBT shoes can also be a therapeutic tool for back, hip, leg and foot problems. At MBT they don't believe in shoes. They believe in footwear that makes you better from the ground up.

Size dilemma?
I am not a fan of the "International Sizing " as I am a "perfect" 10-1/2 C in the U.S. So each purchase is a guess. I have 11 pair of MBTs and two are too large, one too small. When these arrived they were tight BUT there is some elastic in the sides and while the toes were initially tight the leather expanded nicely. They are very comfortable now. If "between " sizes order down as they did stretch. 10-1/2 I ordered the 10-10-1/2, fits great

I have tried the rest and MBT are the best for my condition.
Wonderful shoe perfect fit, My left shin bone compound fractured, foot and ankle was crushed so rocker bottom shoes are the only way i can motivate as my ankle joint does not move when i walk and so far all the MBT shoes I have purchased have given me the means to walk freely with minimal pain and discomfort daily. These are the only brand of shoes I buy and i hope they will be around a long time.

Nice Shoe...
These shoes provide the arch support needed for people who have plantar fasciitis. It takes the pressure off the heel and you tend to walk straighter with these shoes. My only problem is that they are slightly narrow around the metatarsal area. But, because these shoes are made of leather, they are "breaking in" every day. I expect these to be my favorite shoes in another week or so. Thank you.

It's like walking on a cloud with pillows strapped to your feet.
It's like walking on a cloud with pillows strapped to your feet. I'm a nurse and am on my feet all day long. These shoes make me feel like I've been relaxing by the pool all day long. That's how great they are.

Very comfortable shoe. It takes a little bit of getting used to walking in them because of the rocker sole. Not my first pair and I will buy more.
