Comfortable and not bad looking for MBT, which are never stylish. Holds ankle securely which I find helps feel more stable than MBT shoes, which I also wear. Had to go down one Euro size from other MBT purchases. Dark purple cuff at top of boot adds a little extra touch. Recommended.
Brands I'd also recommend: Nothing really similar.

About MBT
The many benefits of MBT shoes are not only substantiated by numerous scientific studies; they are also being enjoyed on a daily basis by more and more health- and fitness-conscious people who improve their physical fitness by merely wearing this physiological footwear. MBT shoes can activate neglected muscles and tone and shape the entire body.
Doctors and physiotherapists recommend MBTs as an effective therapeutic tool, and top athletes like Benni Raich and Michael von Granigen use their MBT sneakers as mini training and regeneration centers. Shoes designed by MBT can have a positive impact in improving posture and gait, reducing stress on the knees and hips, and even help with joint, ligament and tendon injuries.
