Video Description View the Video Description for this product! (Please note that the color shown in the video may no longer be available.)
MBT® is the first physiological footwear that has a positive effect on the whole body.
The 'Habari' sandal features rich full-grain leather uppers with an adjustable hook-and-loop ankle strap for a great fit.
Exceptionally soft, moisture-conducting microfiber sock lining and split leather insole provide breathable wear.
TPU and glass fiber shank adds firmness to sole construction and also ensures a natural rolling movement of the foot for even weight distribution.
PU midsole with pivot is the balancing section underneath the metatarsus which requires an active rolling movement with every step.
This activates a large number of stabilizing muscles throughout the whole body when walking or standing.
Masai Sensor (Masai Barefoot Technology®) creates a pleasant feeling of walking on a sandy beach or soft moss.
Instantly offers a natural instability to which the body automatically reacts increasing muscle activity.
Secure rubber outsole offers lightweight support and durability.
14.00 oz.
Product measurements were taken using size 37 (US Women's 7). Please note that measurements may vary by size.

Reviewer: Rennae H from New Jersey

I ordered these this summer at the advice of my pilates instructor. I have problems with scoliosis and sciatica. I really enjoyed wearing the sandals; however, they caused serious blisters and an abrasion where the strap rubs. I tried moleskin and blister band aids. I am wearing them around the house with socks and they are quite comfortable. I wish I would have ordered the sneakers.

I have 3 pairs of MBTs and love them. I have ordered and returned a few pairs, too, because not every pair fits the same and these babies are not cheap! My legs have more muscle and definition and are slimmer than they have been in my entire life and I'm going on 49. The only thing different in my life (for the most part) is these shoes. Absolutely unbelievable. I wish they were "prettier", but I manage.

I love MBT\'s! I own the sneakers and looked forward to trying an MBT sandal. \r\nI was very disappointed! The strap that fits around the back has caused blisters and the buckle on the side caused a severe abrasion.\r\nNot comfortable at all!

This is my third pair of MBT shoes but my first pair of sandals. I love them. The same comfort and support as the closed in shoes and the casual look for summer.

These are one of the most comfortable pair of shoes that I have ever purchased. I am looking forward to trying other styles for work. I have only had them for 3 months and they are still in great shape. The price is well worth the investment if you can afford it.

MBT's have saved my walking life, and these sandals take their comfort to a summer fun and cool feet place. The style is cute, the cushioning is fabulous, and the fit was perfect from the get go. Highly recommend.

I love MBT shoes! I got my first pair about 3 years ago as a giveaway on Dr. Phil, wear them almost every day and they are still almost like new. I\'ve really wanted a pair of the sandals for a while, but only recently was able to afford it. I love the Habaris as well. Wish I had been able to shop earlier in the season so as to have more selection, but am happy with the ones I have. I was also very pleased with the service I got from Zappos, and hope to do business with them again.

These are my 14th pair of MBTS. I have worn them almost exclusively for the last 2 years. I am a walker with back and knee problems. I have had terrible foot problems over the years including foot surgery for plantars faciatis. When I wear MBTS my feet are better, my back issues are better and my knees do not hurt. They take a little getting used to and I prefer the sandals as they are not so heavy. \r\n\r\nThis was my first experience with Zappos. I was happy with the arrival of my MBTS and had no problems. I will order from them again.

I love my MBT Habari sandals. They are so comfortable and my feet feel great. I have no knee or back problems, but I am proactive and purchased them before any signs of trouble. I give these sandals my highest recommendation for comfort, being stylish and healthy for your feet.

I really liked these sandals, but this is the 2nd pair of the MBT velcro that I have had and the velcro comes loose after wearing. I keep the first pair from last year, but only had these since the end of April and didn't wear them that much when the velcro started doing the same thing as my other pair. They are comfortable, but I can't see paying this much and having another ripped velcro pair of these.

Thank you Zappos! First I have to thank you for the treat of free expedited shipping. I ordered these shoes over the weekend I received them on Monday. I'm not going to miss going to the mall at all! MBTs are not fashion-forward by any stretch. What they are is great physical therapy for your feet, legs, and knees. This is my second pair of MBTs and they are, by MBT standards - cute. The birch color is a great, go with anything, including skirts, color. I'm in heaven as I'm walking around the house. Love them! Thank you again, Zappos!

This is a great-looking shoe but it won't work for narrow feet. I had to send mine back. Only the heel strap is adjustable. The straps that go across the toes are suitable for a medium-width foot and when I tried to walk, my feet slid out. Those of us with narrow feet are limited to MBT's Kismet or whatever the style with adjustable straps is called.

I can't tell you folks enough how great these shoes are. I have lower back issues and just returned from 5 days of touring Santa Fe, New Mexico, where we walked everywhere for hours on end, without pain. I was even stopped a couple of times by people who commented on how cute the style was. I love these shoes and highly recommend them. You will also get a great workout too!

This MBT Habari sandal is really great and worth every penny I've spent. I have degenerative joint disease (both knees) and since I started wearing MBT products (this is my 5th) I don't experience knee stiffness anymore. I'm so thankful I've learned about it...great shoes!!!

I really liked them overall until I wore them for about 6 weeks and they are now stretched out. The upper leather straps are stretching out and causing the shoe to be loose on my foot. I don't have as much support and have been getting lots of bad rubs on my upper foot. I am very dissappointed because they were very expensive and I had high hopes for them to last a long time.

Purchased shoes and really love them, one thing that was a problem was adjusting the back strap so not to get a pinky toe pinch, once I corrected that they were great. Very bouncy walking experience.

These are my 4th pair of MBTs, but the first pair of sandals. They are also the first pair that anyone stopped me to tell me were cute; and I’m glad that MBT has gotten a tad more style conscious. I refer to my black sport highs as Hermina Munster shoes, however, I’d rather have shoes which look goofy and feet that look good than shoes that look good and feet that look goofy. My MBTs are the shoes which if I wear them most of the time, allow me to wear heels and other styles for short periods the rest of the week.

They came really quickly! I love the way they look - even better than the picture. What looked white (part of the sole) is an attractive cream color. I wish the instep was higher, but they feel OK. When I tried to wear them with my orthotics, the straps wore uncomfortably. I’m glad to have MBTs for business (the Mary Janes with orthotics fit like a dream and have really toned legs, strengthened trunk) and now leisure. For exercise, I might try out the new Sketchers sneakers which are supposed to have the same exercise potential.

So there are lots of cheap imitations around now...Caveat Emptor...Forgive...I went to one of those English schools where they taught Latin...Buyer beware, CE means. Masai Barefoot Technology is the real deal...I went to Tanzania, back in the day, and the Masai really do walk barefoot with that rolling walk. Now, we can't do that in our pestilential suburbs, but we can have these shoes...They are FAB. I love them. I wear silly heels from time to time. And I'm mid 50s, so I'm old enough to know better...But these shoes save my poor feet from the occasional silly heel fantasy nonsense. The first ones I bought, from a brick and mortar retailer... I was told I could run in them...Like a fool I did and I did an 8 miler...I was almost crippled. So don't, EVER do this. Otherwise, you can WALK forever in them, and I even hike in them. They are great. And Zappos is about the best online e-tailer you will find. The service is superb, and, more often than not, your loot comes in a day. Talk about good price and instant gratification...Zappos rules...

I am regretfully returning these attractive sandals. They make my feet roll inward in an odd way. Very strange. I thought, is it me? But no, it’s the sandals. The footbed isn’t constructed in the normal MBT way. Too bad, as I really needed new sandals. MBT shoes are now inconsistent in fit and more importantly that all important footbed and sole.

Nice sandal - This is my third pair of MBTs, but my first sandal. It has the typical wonderful feel that one would expect from MBT. I wear these because of the great cushion that they provide for my damaged spine. I just put them on and walk. No "break-in" period for me. Great shoe. :-)

I ordered these shoes on the 23rd, and here they were on our doorstep by Mon. the 26th! I love the shoes, and ZAPPOS IS INCREDIBLE. I really appreciate dealing with you guys – you are the best. I am 78 and do not particularly like to go to the Mall – but I can go to Zappos Mall and I like it there. Thanks again.
