Adorable with jeans or casual pants for work. My legs feel great in these shoes.

I bought these at the recommendation of my podiatrist. They were a little awkward at first, and I've just finally started wearing them full-time, but now I love them! I would highly recommend these for anyone (I was recommended to them because of a torn plantar plate). I also like that I am able to remove the inserts to allow for placement of my own orthopedic inserts.

I've slowly been acquiring MBTs over the past several months as I can afford them. They are a bit pricey, but they are a great value when I consider the fact that these keep my lower back, knees, and heels from not hurting. The Tunisha is probably the most stylish pair of MBTs on the market today. They're one of the few MBT models that you can easily wear at work without looking out of place. So they aren't Jimmy Choos... but who cares? I can wear these with my nice going-out clothes and my feet will continue to be happy. One note, though: These shoes run small. I think part of the reason is because the top is one piece of leather, so there's no extra give along a top seam that lets your shoes stretch out. What that means is that for most women, you will want to order a half size up. I bought my normal 7 in these, and had to trade them in for a size 8. And of course, with Zappos' great return policy, it was totally painless!

These shoes are fabulous and comfortable straight out of the box. I am a flight attendant and have ankle issues. My feet feel as good after a 14hour day as they do at the beginning! This is my second pair and I won\'t wear anything else!

Love these shoes! Very comfortable and practical and I can wear them with outfits that are a little more dressy than the regular/original MBT. Also, very comfortable in the summer.

This is a very comfortable shoe. I was worried about the "rocker" when walking, but have had no problems. I would buy this shoe again.

This is the best walking shoe I have ever owned. It can go from the street to the office because it looks good enough to be worn at the office. Mary Jane styling is not a personal favorite, yet the strap is functional for walking and quite minimal. MBT boots are the best walking boots I have ever worn as well, but living in Florida where boot season is about 5 weeks long, if that, this shoe makes more sense. My daily commute to and from the office is four miles. These are durable shoes, well made and substantial with a wonderful rocking sole.

I have severe arthritis and discovered that if I wear MBTs, I can much more easily survive cocktail parties and other occasions involving a lot of standing. I'm delighted that they have made a dress shoe.

Nice color, but scuffs very easily. Strap broke after a year of continuous wear, up to 16 hours a day. Plan on repairing strap as this is still a comfortable shoe. Just wish MBT would make a softer leather mary-jane with a wider toe box like Earth shoes.\r\n\r\nThanks to Zappos I have tried on many MBT "knock-offs": Sketchers Shape-Ups feel like my arch collapses when standing, and foot rolls inward. Ryka\'s were uncomfortable. New Balance Rock & Tone was close in comfort but ran narrow and looks ugly. None of these master the instability of MBT where you constantly work for balance and avoid locking your knees when standing. Wish Zappos carried RYN. Note that there are Unstable and Stable Rocker Shoes, MBT falls under the Unstable category and are not for everyone.

First of all, without question these have become my favorite shoes. In fact, I find myself rethinking what I wear each day just so I can put on my MBTs. If you're thinking about ordering a pair, however, consider ordering a half size larger than you normally would. I usually wear Size 6 and found a 6 1/2 to fit just fine. Next - ordering from Zappos was a very pleasurable experience. The customer service and shipping were fantastic, plus I knew I was getting legitimate MBTs. Would I buy another pair? You betcha!

Very skeptical of MBTs- funny looking, expensive and they tone one's posterior without trips to the gym? Yeah, OK. Because of Zappos' amazing return policy, though, I gave Tunisha a try, figuring that if I hated them, I could send them back. Well. They are undoubtedly goofy looking! They feel AMAZING on the feet, though. They also are kind to my torn hamstring, and knee and ankle arthritis. The jury is still out on their toning abilities- and I remain suspicious of that claim- but the orthopedic benefits are for real (trust me on that, I am both a physician and an athlete). I have fallen in love with the shoes...I wear them with all types of clothes and for many occasions except for those that require formal or sexy shoes. So, MBT has a new convert- I highly recommend Tunisha. And Zappos has a loyal customer- why would you buy shoes anywhere else?

Regarding benefits: I tried these shoes on in the store before buying them and found them here for much less. I had been struggling with shin splints, hip and back pain. The moment I put these shoes on, all that pressure vanished. I've been wearing these for a month now during my commute or when going for walks and feel as if I have better posture and gait when I am walking. And my shin splints are gone. I highly recommend these to anyone dealing with similar issues. Regarding style: MBTs are not that attractive, but I've received compliments on these. I would not call them grape--they are more of a rust color. Regarding size: I wear a 7.5 in heels, but wear an 8 in these. I would recommend trying them on in a walking store and then purchasing them online at a better price to ensure the fit.

These shoes are fabulous for anyone who wants to improve their posture or has lower back issues -- you put them on and your back goes "Ahhhh..." Once you wear them in - I got a blister the first day - they are very comfortable. I listened to everyone's review and ordered a half size above my normal.

Excellent shoes. I have an extremely bad left ankle. Post surgery in 2002.Uneven hips, messed up knees from old skiing accidents, could not walk more than 15 minutes without a lot of pain in my knees, back and ankles. Even with orthotics, custom made, did not get the relief after a half hour, most, just walking around my home! These shoes were a great price for MBT's. I love your free return policy, gave me piece of mind in case they did not fit or the color was wrong and you always have a speedy delivery. I always go for Zappos after I have tried on a shoe at a store to see what you have if they do not have the style or size I need. I discovered MBT's in California, San Jose in March this year. Love your service! Thanks!

I was hesitant to buy MBTs because (a) they're ugly; (b) there were some negative reviews; and (c) I am clumsy and these seemed dangerous! I'm glad I finally bought them (April 2010). I ordered a half size up which fit perfectly. I don't feel any stretching or strain. Don't know if these are different than those of a few years ago or I just work out enough, but I have had ZERO soreness in my thighs or calves. On the other hand, my plantar fasciitis and heel pain are gone when I'm in these shoes. And I have yet to stumble over my own feet. Even though they are pretty ugly, I'm very happy with my purchase.

This is my 3rd pair of MBTs and I am hooked. I find that they run a little small so I order a 1/2 size larger than usual (I wear socks with mine so want the extra room and don't like my toes smooshed). The finish on this shoe is great and repels water - I would not call the color "grape" but rather "rust" or red-brown. I use them to do a daily walk and if I am going to be on my feet for a long time. They are pricy but very unique.

I'm a runner and have suffered two years with Piriformis Syndrome. These shoes alleviate the pain from Sciatic nerve down hamstring. They look cute with long pants or jeans. I had to get a bigger size than normal. I would highly recommend these MBT's!

I bought this shoe to wear at work. I work in surgery so I am on my feet all day long. These shoes have been incredible for support and all day comfort. The price tag is higher than I would normally spend on a pair of work shoes, but these have been worth EVERY PENNY! I bought them a half size larger than I normally wear and they are perfect. Worth the money!!

I'm recovering from an Achilles injury and bought these on the recommendation of my physical therapist. Wearing these has helped tremendously. I have been dealing with heal pain for over a year and saw a big improvement shortly after starting to wear these shoes. As a side benefit, I really do feel like I am toning my legs while wearing them! I've been recommending these to my friends. Not too fashionable, but I can get away with wearing them to the office. I bought a half size up from my normal shoe size.

I love Zappos and I love my shoes. The first pair of shoes I bought did not fit, so I did the super easy return and got a credit and ordered this pair. I am a retail store owner and am always on my feet, wearing these MBT's has changed my life. Yes, they are not very attractive, but I don't care. My feet no longer hurt, my back no longer aches. I even wore these to the Atlanta Gift Market - usually my feet hurt so bad after market, with these on I could have walked (and shopped) forever!

I love these shoes. I have been wearing MBT sport shoes for years, because I have foot pain. I got a position at work which requires a dressier shoe and ordered the Tunisha. They look good with slacks and I have even had compliments on them. They are extremely comfortable and fit my wide feet. If the black ones ever go on sale, I'm buying them too!!

I am very satisfied with these shoes, Before I purchased them, I read other reviews on MBT shoes and others recommend that you order a 1/2 size larger than your normal size. I am glad that I did, because the fit is perfect. They did not need any break-in and are very comfortable. I would recommend these shoes.

Zappos is the best thing since the microwave. They are fast, dependable, flexible to your needs, have great quality and there is no complicated loops to jump through.Plus, you save money. They should be in charge of the new health care bill the government is working on. Zappos is the best.

Ariat and Beautifeel are also great for feet that need some TLC.

This is my second pair of MBTs. They are comfortable and good looking. After walking in them for a few hours one can feel muscles working. They are great and Zappos service is exceptional.
