I work in a Hardware store and am up and down ladders all day standing 11 hours except for lunch. This was my second pair of MBT. I wore these 8 months and lost 15lbs. from walking not working out at all. What are you waiting for. Buy them. MBT is certified as Medical Equiptment, Sketchers are fake and just as expensive, I love MBT on my 5th pair but these were my fave. Love my M walk baby!
ve the perfect combination of cotton and spandex, which gives the great fit.

'm not sure these shoes are helping me tone anything, but I love them anyway. They're just so comfortable. I'm on my feet all day (12 hour shifts) and very few shoes are really comfortable for that long. I wouldn't run in these. I don't think you can, but they're great for walking and standing. I usually wear a 7.5N in dress shoes, and an 8.5N in running sneakers, and I got the 38 1/3 (woman's 8). I was worried they'd be too wide but as long as I wear gym socks they're fine.

I ordered these shoes in the correct size and they felt true. I also own Dr. Scholl’s fitness walkers and these are by far a sturdier shoe. Although the gel insole of the Dr. Scholl’s gives a bit more cushioning the MBT is in my opinion better quality. I feel that I stand straighter and I feel less leg fatigue at the end of the day. I have had knee surgery on both left and right knees so these shoes have become a daily favorite in a very short period of time.

Love the shoes, I work in a busy ER and have to have good shoes, several co workers had purchased the MBT's but I held back a while. I have had them about 3-4 weeks and can't sing their praises enough. And the Zappos service is the best. Thanks.

I have plantar fasciitis and after coming out of a cast my dr. recommended these shoes to me. They are great. I have a whole wardrobe of "foot friendly" shoes: Dansko, Sofft, Softspots, etc. but for plantar fasciitis, 'cause the heel is slightly elevated, these shoes can not be beat. Order 1/2 size up. I ordered the MBT mary janes first but the velco strap tends to loosen up as you wear them. These you can lace and they stay snug. Highly recommend.

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.

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.

Excellent shoes. The video really shows the proper way to walk in the MBTs. I can already feel myself not slouching as I walk.

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 love this shoe! I have the worst problems with my feet and ankles so buying shoes for me is usually a nightmare. The MBTs are not only beyond comfortable, but have transformed my body. Buy a half size larger than usual size.

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.

The MBT shoes I ordered were sent out quickly and I received them in record time. The service was great, when I placed my order the sales lady was very friendly and efficient. I love my new MBT shoes. Thank you Zappos.
