Great Shoe -
Excellent shoe for walking. Takes away pressure points (especially the heels) when walking. No tired feet at the end of the day. Would definitely recommend this shoe for anyone who is on their feet all day.

A Real Workout -
These "shoes" are not shoes -- they ARE a piece of workout equipment. They do just what the advertiser says -- they take getting used to, they feel different, and they are a workout. Do wear them a few hours at a time until you are used to them. I am still not up to running in them -- it's just too hard -- they feel like Frankenstein boots. But, if I really want their benefits, I've got to hang with it. They're doing what they're advertised to do. I'd recommend them.

MBT Sport High -
Loved the free shipping and prompt service - past experience told me to order a size larger to avoid cramping of front foot area.

HIGH 5!
This is my second pair of MBT's.
They ARE much higher than my MBT sandals and took more getting used to. These shoes are sure to give your legs a work out! The only "downside" for me, is I tend to pronate with one ankle (roll in) and this style of MBT's exaggerated this at first. Now I am walking straighter. Thanx MBT!

Ugliest, favorite, shoes -
These are the ugliest shoes I've ever bought. They are also the most expensive ever.
Still, they are, w/o a doubt, my favorite. They are comfortable, wonderful; make my posture perfect... and all the other things previous reviewers have said.
Had I the money, I'd buy a wardrobe of them.

MBT is A+++
I purchased these shoes after a recommendation from an athletic trainer. I had an ankle fusion last year and was non weight bearing for 9 months due to complications. I gained a lot of weight and a great amount of swelling still remained around the ankle making it impossible to exercise. After the purchase of these shoes, and wearing for only one week the swelling was noticeably gone and I have been able to exercise as I did before my ankle problems. I also have been able to rebuild the muscles in my leg and particularly my calf in only about 3-4 weeks. I no longer have any back pain from walking (I was favoring the other side) and I felt the muscles in my stomach. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND these shoes for anyone, but especially those with foot or ankle issues.

They really work!
This is my second pair of MBTs in 6 months. I had been walking for a year and a half (4 miles/3-4 days/week) when I got them. Within three months there was an enormous difference in the tone of my legs and stomach. They tend to rub my heels unless I tie them really tightly, but other than that they are very comfortable. They are pricey too and it would be nicer if they were more affordable, but for the results in my body, it's worth it.

Tried them-Love them -
I was very skeptical at first, but decided to try them out. It took me one or two days to get used to the step, but once I got the hang of it I fell in love with the feel.
When running, lifting weights it is easier to maintain good form by finding the pivot point of the sole.
While on my feet all day at work (hospital) I found I had better posture.
So good that I am now buying my second pair.
The first pair lasted for about 4 mos of daily wear and daily running- not bad.

MBT great shoe -
I bought this pair for my adult daughter who works as a cashier and stands all day. She loves the shoes. Her aching legs and heels are much better. My husband and I each own two styles of MBTs - tennis shoes and sandals. I hate to wear anything else.

MBT Sport High -
I love my MBT's. I can truly feel as if I had a workout when I wear them. My posture has improved as has the burning in my heels when I walked for long distances. They are a bit clunky for every day wear, but perfect for walking and the gym.

MBT - Solution!
Upon advice from my wife and daughter, both MBT fanatics, I purchased this shoe. I have begun using this shoe in my evening walks. I immediately noticed a benefit in spinal alignment and hip alignment - so much so that my sleeping pattern has improved. MBT delivers a shoe that is truly a training device. This shoe is not for hanging out on the boulevard - it is a tool for better health.

WOW! From a sneaker-hater -
I normally hate wearing sneakers outside of the gym but I read so many great things about these it piqued my curiosity. The price is waaaay more than I usually pay for shoes, especially sneakers, but I went ahead and took the plunge. WOW am I glad I did. I walked about 2 1/2 miles the first day -- one short walk and one longer -- and I was surprised how much I could feel it in my legs. The next morning I felt it through my legs and even in my abs. And they're really comfortable to boot. Definitely worth the money!

Great shoes -
They take some getting used to--you sort of have to relate to them as your teachers--but they are definitely improving my posture & changing how I walk.

These shoes are awesome! If you are going to be on your feet for a while, these are the shoes to have on!! Not only are they comfortable but gives you a little workout to boot! I've only had them for three weeks and want another pair in black! Definitely worth the money....

Worth every penny.
I was worried about paying so much for a pair of shoes. I read all the reviews and still waited. Then out shopping I saw a woman wearing them and asked her how she liked them and she said they were the best shoes she ever had and Worth every penny. So I bit the bullet and ordered them and I love them and they truly are worth every penny. They do everything they say they will.

Amazing -
These shoes may not make the glamour review but they will truly change your body. They really do what they say and are fantastic. My friend had to buy them after seeing mine and then 2 days later even bought the sandals. I will never wear anything else. They are so comfortable and do give you an add workout.

Takes a bit of getting used too- but then great!
I had a pair for two years,- my husband walks the dogs twice a day and didn't feel he was getting much exercise out of it anymore- so I suggested these shoes- the first day he wore them he didn't tie them tight enough and got a huge blister- but since then- he watched the video and read the info provided- he is impressed with the different muscle groups it works and changes up the regular walk to a different workout- less back and knee pain, works the calves- he recommends them!

Getting the Correct MBT Size -
I got the Black Sport High as well -- just a great shoe. I'm a pretty serious runner and after a long run or hard workout I do 10 to 20 minutes of "roll-jogging" in the Sport High. This is just amazing: it really helps me recover from my session and feeling fresh and ready for my run the next day!
Zappos has such a great return/exchange policy that when I bought my first pair they had to go back and forth three times until we got it right.
Now I got to www.FeetFirstFitness.com for being professionally consulted and fit with my size. I trace both my feel and they tell me exactly what size I am in which MBT model!

Love the workout -
Yes, the shoes are ugly, and even though I swore I would not wear them out of the house - I do! I love the workout! On a few occasions some have noticed my legs, and asked if I am a runner - after only two weeks in the shoes! I am a stay-at-home mom, so I wear them around the house and on errands, and already I have toned my legs. Still waiting on the rear and waist to go away!

Amazing Sneakers!
These shoes rock! I started wearing them pretty much all day when I got them and they were fine. My legs and torso were sore like I had done sit-ups - but of course I hadn't. Great for sore knees and back. Now when I wear my cute flats all day I can feel the difference in my gait and my lower back. These are excellent and worth every penny. The only thing is that my dog stepped on my toe the first day and the mark won’t wipe off the mesh - it doesn’t look very nice - so a wipeable top would be my only suggestion. (I got the white ones). Order them big - my friend got a pair and has bad blisters on the heel.

They work.
If used properly, you are sore from your feet to your seat. Your legs feel tighter in days.

MBT Bliss -
Love these shoes, can't wear anything else. Live in NYC and it's great to have some distance between me and the street. They are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned and they keep my legs and rear toned to boot.
I wear a 7 1/2 and it translates to a 39 1/3 in MBT...I had to try them on in a shoe store before I ordered them.

MBT Sport High - Black -
I have had my MBT’s for about 3 weeks now and am still learning the best gait and speed for comfort and balance. There is definitely a learning curve, but I can feel results beginning. I purchased them because I needed shoes for work, I work at a desk and try to get up and walk every hour or so and hoped these shoes would maximize the effort. So far they seem to do exactly as described: burn calories, shape and tone. They are spendy, but I think in the long run they will be well worth it.

This is my third pair of this shoe. I first ordered it in white and in my normal size. I had to exchange it for a size larger. It is a little wide, but not enough to make it a bad fit. I wore it all day long from the very first day and loved it.
