Comfort to my feet.
The MBT shoes are everything I heard they were. The quality of the shoe is excellent. I like the sporty look of the shoe. Comfort is beyond words… I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and I can wear these shoes all day and my feet, knees, and back do not bother me at the end of the day. I did order a half size up from my regular size and they fit fine. I will have another pair or many pair. Cost is the only issue I have.

This shoe is very comfortable. I tried to get away with ordering the sale shoe in White/Navy but it was only available in men's sizes. Even the smallest size was too big despite the fact that I wear a 9.5. I had to send them back. The color combination was not available even at full price so I settled for the silver/white. They arrived today and fit perfectly in a size 10. They are wide enough and the laces don't come up so high that they irritate the front ankle. I could not be happier. MBT is finally getting some "style" advisers on board! Hooray! With my knee problems that mess up my back and foot, I can wear these all day long without pain. Even after I have my knee replacement, I am an MBT gal for life!

mbt walk -
This is my second pair of MBT's. I use them on the treadmill and really like them. The sizing changed from my first to second pair. I wear a 6 1/2 shoe and I had to get a 7 1/2 in my second pair and a 7 in my first pair.

Love these as much as my first pair, Ice. I wear thin socks and these fit true to my size. If wearing thicker socks, I imagine they would feel a tad tight and would need to go up in size. But the wonderful cushiony bounce is all there, perfect for my bad knees so I can go walking.

Great for your back -
I bought these shoes because a friend insisted they are easy on the back when walking for exercise. Usually, my back starts hurting about halfway through my walk and with these, I have no back pain. I have had no trouble with balance either. I do feel a difference in my calves, hamstrings and rear-end when I wear these, but I've only worn them 5 times, so I haven't seen results, of course. I wear a 9 and have a wide foot, so I ordered the 10. It's a little loose on my smaller foot, but I often have that problem. I tried them on in a brick and mortar store first, and then came to Zappos to get the pink color I wanted. I also tried on a sandal in the store, and in that style, where the toes have free wiggle room; I wear a 9 1/2. The shoes are outrageously priced, but my back doesn't hurt, and that's worth a lot of money to me. If I were thinking of buying them just for the touted shaping feature, I don't know if I'd spend the money.

Pleasure on foot -
Having experienced an untold number of different shoes, including combat jump boots, MBT's are the crème of the crop. I had no problem getting used to he unique shape and after only about an hour trial walk, I went on a 2 mile hike on asphalt. Experience no pain or discomfort even after recent toe surgery. My podiatrist tried them on and is now recommending MBT's to his patients. I just hope they will last for a long time. When my first shipment arrived, but shoes felt smaller than ordered, I returned them and received new shoes of proper size within 1 day, an unbelievable service.

A pleasant surprise -
I heard about these shoes from someone and ordered a pair, thinking I would probably send them back, but wanted to check them out. Short story, I kept them. You cannot convince me that the innovative sole makes this shoe worth the price, but it does produce results, and quickly. I found them comfortable, easy to walk in, high quality. Can't drive in them, but great for around the house or a treadmill.

Great shoes for people with flat feet and bad knees -
This is my 3rd pair of MBTs. I like them very much. I finally got the fit right. Zappos is very good about helping get the fit right. They tell you when to order bigger or smaller with certain styles. I have very flat feet and bad tendons. These make it easier to walk. They put very little pressure on the knees. Your hips might be a little sore as you may be working muscles there that you have not worked in awhile. I do wish MBT would work a bit on the styles of the shoes. It is tough to dress them up and that is about all I wear. They have no arch support, but because of the way you walk, you don't need it. No more blisters on your poor flat arches! You should not try orthotics in these shoes.

This MBT style is rigid and narrow.
I LOVE MBT- the philosophy, the exercise- everything, basically, except these shoes. The M Walk style is short & narrow (hence ordering up a size). When a full size up didn't work, I went to an MBT store to see what my options were. While the M Walks are the tiniest, most mainstream sneaker-looking shoe, they will crush your feet and give you unbelievable blisters if they're too small. Moral of the story- if you have ANY width to your foot, slight bunions, etc steer toward the Chapa or Sport. Additionally, my first MBT blisters (as many others have mentioned) did not occur until 2 miles into my regular walk. Wear them extensively at home before you throw away the box!
MBT is the best!

Order Big -
I didn't realize I was supposed to order a size and a half bigger. I ordered a half size bigger and have huge blisters! They were a little snug but not uncomfortable, but after a long walk I developed blisters. I have a friend who this happened to also. An awful lot of money for unwearable sneakers. Why can't they adjust their sizes?

MWalk08 -
This is my first pair of MBT's and I am so very pleased with them. I have back trouble and was not walking because my back hurt - NO MORE! It's really amazing! I loved them instantly and then purchased a pair of sandals and I wear them constantly and can do all my chores shopping and my back or feet don't hurt.
They are awesome!!

Skeptical at first...
I was a little iffy on spending so much money on these. After reading the reviews I thought I should go for it, and I am glad I did. I work at least 40 hours a week in a factory, re: cement floors, and am on my feet at least 30 of those hours. These shoes are SO comfortable. When you first put them on, it’s just amazing. I love, love, love them, and I wear them every day. I have never had a shoe that felt so comfortable. And, I would probably spend the money on another pair or 2. Another thing, they seemed to stay clean forever!! Usually I get new shoes and they are dirty in a second, I just started noticing these were dirty a few days ago, and I've had them for a month. Yay for these shoes!

Cushy and great for the tushy -
These are incredibly comfortable and do seem to be working my thighs and butt as I walk around. I needed to order a full size larger than what I normally wear. My only comment to the company for improvement: I have flat feet and thus my feet tend to fold inwards a bit as I walk, which after a couple hours starts to strain my feet and legs. Perhaps a model can be created for people like me that provides better support? I end up having to consciously walk differently, placing more weight on the outside of my foot, which I can only do for a small amount of time.

Comfortable and Fun -
I had to order a full size up as the half size up didn't work for me but once I got the right size I loved it. The toe box is small/narrower than what you would expect for a shoe of that shape. It has a lot of cushioning and I love walking with a little "bounce" in my step. Very comfortable - a fun shoe and also easy on the body. I was so happy to receive my shoes the day after ordering them - FANTASTIC.

Great shoe!
This shoe is so much fun to wear! I can wear it all day and still feel like dancing when the day is done. It's so much fun to go walking in as well. The MBT system took about 2 hours to get used to, but then I didn't want to take the shoe off. Excellent for your posture as well.

The shoe was for my partner, from the time she tried them on to the time she took them off, her feet felt great. She walked all day with no discomfort. I will be getting me a pair one day! Thanks!

The best walking shoe I have found. After walking four hours at an exhibition, I was still walking in comfort. I have a very bad back & knees. I will buy a second pair!

Comfortable! They felt a little weird at first but I got used to them quickly. I haven't had them long enough to notice a difference in my back pain (which I bought them for) but I have hope! Fun to walk in. I just wish they could come up with a design that's a little funkier so I would want to wear them everywhere!

LOVE THESE SHOES!!!
I am 55 years old. I had these shoes for a week and then spent 4 days walking New York City averaging about 10 miles a day in them. HEAVEN! No aching feet or joints including no back pain! They are expensive, but well worth the price. I would (and have) recommended them anyone. The site recommends a half size larger in this particular style which I originally ordered but had to return for a full size larger. With Zappos great service, I buy shoes from no other source. Keep up the good work.

Fantastic! I love this shoe...but not in a weird way :o)
These shoes are the best! I like the workout my legs get when I wear them for my walks. I feel the burn in my legs and caboose! It is an investment with plenty of returns. Money well spent!

 |  | I just wanted to take the time to let you know how pleased I was with your service on my first purchase through your site. I simply ordered one pair of shoes with the cheapest free shipping option and came home the next day to find them already waiting for me. I received an email saying my priority and shipping were upgraded, which was a very pleasant surprise. I'm not sure if this happens often or not, but either way, I thank you very much for the great service! Sincerely, Robert W. |  | ~ Robert W., September 06 2008
