2nd pair -
I have these shoes in white with orange which I use at the gym. I think their great so much so that I'm ordering a second pair in black for work. I don't find that MBT's run smaller for me they fit true to size.

Fantastic shoes! I love the way I walk in them and can definitely feel the 'workout'. Highly recommended. I ordered a half size up as suggested and they fit just fine.

I keep trying to find a style in MBT that both fits and looks good. I am looking for that relief from backaches that come from standing in a classroom all day. The fit wasn\'t too bad on these, but my toes were touching the inside front of the shoe a bit. The MBT website says that is ok, though. I had no heel slip, either, something I\'ve found with other styles. But, I just didn\'t care for the silver X designs on these. I felt that I looked like a Skateboardin\' Granny. They are also too sneakery looking for work shoes. So, back they go.

These are great shoes! They improve my posture and reinforce my plan to be smart and have fun while pursuing a healthy lifestyle! I purchased a 9, even though I normally wear an 8. This allows me to wear thick socks and to wear these even when my feet tend to swell at the end of the day. I'm worth the investment and so are you!

I wear a size 8 in most shoe brands. In this style, the 8.5 fit perfectly without making my feet look huge. I was hesitant to spend this amount of money on shoes but it proved to be an extremely worthy investment. I no longer feel pain in my ankles and knees after walking and my legs are more toned. I\'ve already started getting rid of the other shoes in my closet.

I love, love, love MBT shoes. They do exactly what they claim to do, tighten butt and thighs and legs. They are pricey but well worth it. It only takes about one minute to get accustomed to the new way of walking. Anyone who goes walking should definitely purchase these amazing shoes.

Purchased both MBT Walk and Skechers Shape Ups at same time. Had a friend tell me about the Skechers, but read previous Zappos reviews on MBT. Decided to do my own comfort analysis. When received I put one of each on and walked around for awhile and chose the one that was most comfortable to me. It was the MBTs; they cost more, but I have hip problems from time to time and comfort was more important. Will say they are incredible for your posture; you can't walk in them without holding your shoulders up. They do run 1/2 size small. Wear a 7, ordered 7 1/2. Fits great. Definitely help with toning, too. I walk every day and can tell difference since started wearing; however, they are not good for running or walking on steep incline.

I recently had a lumbar spinal fusion & walking is the only form of exercise I can do. After wearing my MBT shoes for the first time I noticed that I stood straighter and had slightly less lower back pain. For people with lower back pain, I think they are worth the high cost. As to sizing, buy at least 1/2 size up from your regular size and if there is any doubt, go a full size up. I wear between a 7 & 7.5 normally and I ordered an 8 in these shoes. They fit just a tad snug. The next pair I buy will probably be an 8.5. That I'm already thinking of my next pair despite the expense tells you how happy I am with these shoes!

I love my MBTs! I have flat feet and lots of pain from standing and walking. The way the MBTs rock, there isn\'t excessive pressure on a single part of my foot and I can do more with less pain. They say not to use orthotics with them, but the way my feet roll in, I have to and it helps a lot. \r\n\r\nNot all MBTs work for me with my flat feet...my feet roll in with some of them. This one is particularly good for my feet! It\'s also springy which helps lower my pain, too. \r\n\r\nI tried the Skechers version of this kind of shoe and my feet rolled in terribly in all of them. There\'s no question for me that MBTs are worth the money. I haven\'t worn anything else for 2 years now!

These shoes run small, I wear 9, and I got 9 1/2 an they fit perfect. I can wear an an 8 1/2, but it's tight so order half up from your real shoe size. They're awesome! The first time I wore them to go shopping an I got tired! I felt like I had been on a treadmill! They work somehow, it's really cool and worth the price if you're serious about wearing them. Also, once you put yours pants over them you can't tell how thick the sole is, at least with the black ones.

I purchased a pair of MBT which were too small. I spoke to a representative and she advised me on how to return and get a larger size. Before I even returned the small size, the new ones were at the door. That was amazing.\r\nUnfortunately, I did not get the female\'s name, but she truly was so nice.\r\nIt\'s a great company and if I ever get to Vegas, I\'ll tour the facilites. Thanks to Zappos

I love these shoes! As I read the reviews, they said order 1/2 larger. I ended up with a full size larger and they fit wonderfully. The first day I wore them walking I could tell the difference in my workout. I have worn them walking every day since I got them and in only 4 short weeks I can tell the difference in the way my clothes fit. I feel like I am getting a much better workout. I recommend these shoes to any walker. They are well worth (and more) what I paid for them.

The size 8 mbt m.walk just fit right. It is when you just wear thin sports socks but the thick sport sock does not work even on a one size bigger. I found that 1/2 size bigger would still too small to those who use to wear size 7. Love the color combination pink and gray. I am excited wearing them. I recently got a sandal also and it was a 71/2 w/c ZAPPOS exchange readily to size 8 w/out problem. Their customer service is awesome! Before i can send back my other sandal the next size sandal is already in my doorstep. I highly recommend this website for all those got addicted to their MBTs. I got 3 of them now. Cannot walk without them. I feet are now MBTize!!!

When I first saw this shoe I was intrigued by the whole concept of MBT walking but also skeptical: yet another fad, I thought. But then a friend told me that she had been wearing her MBT sneaker for over a year now and really loved them! Yes, they are not the dressy kind of shoe, she commented, but wearing MBT shoes helped improve her posture markedly. She said she was going to buy sandals next. So I decided to give them a try. I bought them about a month ago and I love them. A snug fit is important! Aches and pains in hip and leg area are eased when I wear these shoes. I bought the pink ones because they were the cheapest at the time of purchase. Now I'm thinking of getting sandals as well. It's also fun just standing in those shoes since you can rock back and forth and thus work on your posture, your balance, and your muscles all at once. By the way, these shoes were also favorably reviewed in the New York Times. I recommend them.

I love these sneakers. I recently got a 2 year old dog who needs lots of walks. I have a lot of problems with my feet, knees and hips. I have been able to walk up to 3 miles in these shoes. It did take me 10 different pair in 4 different styles to find one that fit correctly. Thanks to Zappos I could keep returning them until I found the right fit. You do need at least 1/2 size larger if not a full size larger.

Love these shoes. I have noticed a difference in only a couple of weeks. I just wish I could wear them a bit more inconspicuously so I could wear them more. They do run small though, so make sure to order the size up! Thanks so much for such a great shoe that really makes a difference in your legs.

I was walking with a walker until I bought these shoes. I have very little pain in my legs now and I walk on my own. You have to get used to them. I wear them about 4 hrs a day. I think I am feeling so much better. I can continue working now instead of retiring.

You need to try these on before you buy them, they tend to vary from style to style in fit. I went up a whole size in this particular style. They are great for standing and walking as I do at work. I tried them for walking 3 miles instead of my running/walking shoes and noted that my knees were a little sore from hyperextending, which I'd probably get better at noticing after a while and correct. But I've been wearing them for work for over a year and it's the only shoe I wear now. They keep the pressure off of any one particular part of my foot, and it gives options with the rocker bottom to come to a rest on the ball/toes of my foot, my arch, or my heel. It's such an improvement over always having a fairly flat stance. I also get a lot of attention from wearing them, people always want to know if they 'work'. I only know I have very tired feet and legs when I don't wear them after 8 hours of standing/walking.. and with them I have more endurance. Great work shoe, and even the men at my work wear them now. I also am just a little bit taller in them, which is a plus.

I bought an MBT sandal earlier this year and fell in love with the way it makes my legs feel when I walk. I wear the sandals for a 2 mile walk every morning. As fall approaches I wanted very badly to have a pair of closed MBT shoes, but my size is ladies' 11 and my foot is narrow. The sandals have velcro straps and can be easily adjusted. Everything I have read indicates that MBT shoes run small and that you should order the next larger size. For me that would be ladies' 12 and Tataga is the only style I could find in size 12. It does not have as thick a sole as my sandals and the M.Walk. So I took a chance and ordered a size 11 M.Walk and am delighted to report that it works for me. I cannot wear heavy socks with the shoes, but the socks I prefer for walking work perfectly. Since Zappos provides free shipping both ways, customers can afford to try different sizes and I knew I could order the size 12 in another style later if I needed to do that. MBT's are wonderful!

Normally wear 9 1/2 and 10, ordered 10 1/2 and they fit perfectly. They make me want to walk more because they are so comfortable and fun, but super ugly! I wouldn't wear them with a normal outfit, but they are great for walking. Haven't decided if they are worth the money yet; I would say most likely.
