I love this comfortable sandal which is more stylish than the original MBT sandal. Caution: I needed to order one half size larger than my usual size so my toes didn't fall over the top.

MBT's are like walking on marshmallows! This is my replacement pair because I adored my first pair and want to ensure I never am without them. I have three different MBT styles and they are the most comfortable shoes I have ever found. You can stand or walk for hours on end with no discomfort. It takes a bit of getting used to the angle of the heel "dip", but once you master that, you will want to wear a pair every day.

I was very impressed with the representative of Zappos and their client oriented policies. I had to return a pair of boots, and they immediately offer a refund without presenting any issues or problems. I decided to exchange, the e mailed me a free label for the return package, gave me 2 weeks to resend a package and got my new purchase in 3 days. This is an extraordinary company, one that I now trust and would love doing business with. Cristina Casanova

Zappos is amazing. I bought a pair of sandals that broke within six months and they shipped me a new pair that arrived the next day as well as paying the shipping to return the broken pair. I love shopping with Zappos!

I love this sandal. Fits my wide foot with lots of adjustments. Looks great... not so clunky as the original sandal. I own 6 pair MBT's. Due to neck surgery, this is the only brand I wear, and Zappos Customer Service is, bar none, the best customer service I have ever experienced... On all MBTs I order up a 1/2 size. On this particular shoe I needed to re-order the normal size. So it does run true to size, unlike the rest of MBTs (of course this sizing issue is not a problem once you know it exists). With Zappos free shipping, both directions, it is easy and fast to get the correct size. I did have a problem with the stitching failing around the metal loop on the outside of the foot. The leather was very thin here and the stitching acted like a perforation machine and after only 5-6 wearings the leather pulled apart. Of course, Zappos is awesome and overnighted a new pair and emailed a sticker for return label. I love Zappos I wear these shoes because they protect my neck/spine from unexpected jolts which happen from missteps. Ever since buying my first pairs of MBTs I've found that they force my foot to roll forward and completely cushion my spine from missteps. I thought I'd try the Skechers because they were so cheap. They walk fine, and they look okay. But twice in 3 weeks I had a misstep which traveled all the way up my spine and jarred my neck. I gave the shoes to my healthy daughter and bought another pair of MBT.
Brands I'd also recommend: NONE, only MBTs, MBTs, MBTs.

I have 3 pairs of MBT sandals...for me, each had a problem, but they are still the best shoes for my feet...the Panda's problem is that the place where the buckle is on the toe area digs into my skin, making a very sore place...I covered the skin with a band-aid and then put moleskin under the underside of the offending strap/buckle...I tried not wearing them for a couple of days...I think MBT could make a better design...they probably do, but they were not on sale...that's the only way that I'll buy them...so expensive...

Update for my previous review: sad to say but I am going to send Pandas back. I put them on while trying on outfits to wear on an upcoming trip. Just walking back and forth between two (carpet) rooms, my left foot shifted in the shoe so that my big toe stuck over the front. I had room to move my foot back so I readjusted the front velcro, but the closure flap underneath rubs on my foot.It was red after just 30 minutes. Just not the right fit for me.Very cute shoe though.

I have other MBT's but this is the first fashionable pair I've owned. They are stylish and comfortable. The rocker bottom seems lower/lesser than my other styles. Having 3 adjustable straps gives me a better chance to get just the right fit.

I have a lot of foot problems, so I buy many shoes with high hopes but eventual pain. Finally, with these shoes I can walk without thinking about my feet. With three velcro tabs, they can be adjusted to fit perfectly. They also seem to keep my back from hurting after being on my feet for a long period. I liked them enough to buy a second pair, even though they're pricey. They're also very well made and should last a long time. Good travel shoe, too.

After an hour of walking in around the house, the left foot outer edge of my little toe became red. I sent them back. I wear 7.5 and sometimes an 8. I ordered a 37.2/3 which fit just a little small.

This shoe has a lower profile than the original MBTs - which is nice. They can 'pass' for an ordinary shoe. They are very attractive and don't scream 'orthopedic shoe.' Plus they feel great like an MBT does. I would buy this style again.

Love these, great color, get compliments all the time. Silver and purple--my favorites. Lower foot base than the sport shoes, very adjustable and comfortable, great for pleasure walking, zoos, sporting events, shopping. Love.

I was skeptical that these would live up to the rave reviews and the product claims about eliminating back pain. Many of the so-called comfort shoes do not deliver (even Born seems to be slipping recently). I put these to the test when I recently pounded the pavement in NYC one afternoon. I had no lower back pain, and no pain in my legs that I usually get after that much walking on concrete all day. I am actually amazed at the comfort of these shoes! They are a bit heavier than most shoes, and the calves get a workout (okay with me), so they take a little getting used to. All in all, they get an A+ from me! I wish there was more variety in color, though, particularly for summer. I recommend ordering up a half size.

I've been wearing MBTs for a few years now, but these are the MOST comfortable of any of their shoes and are nice looking.

I love this company and how they do business. I ordered a pair of MBT Pandas and they were to small. I was really dreading the return process. Much to my surprise there was no hassle. Just sent me out the next size and told me to return the too small size. Job done! Now that is what I call customer service! And by the way the shoes are wonderful. It is my 5th pair of MBT's. They are one of the most comfortable pairs I have purchased. Worth every penny!

These are my 5th pair of MBTs so I'm obviously a fan. I'm planning on taking these sandals to Europe next month. I've been wearing them to work for the past couple of weeks and they were comfortable from the get go. No 'break in' period needed.

These sandals are my current favorite shoes in my closet. They are supremely comfortable, as are all MBT shoes, and they are really cute. I wear them almost every day and get compliments regularly. They look nice with pants and even with casual skirts. I am very happy to have discovered MBT and am grateful that they continue to develop attractive styles to go with the comfort they always provide. I rated these sandals true to size and width because the velcro allows them to be adjusted to my foot.
