Customer Review: I want one more pair!!
I boutht my pair about one month ago. I've been wearing this for about 3 weeks at work. It became fun to run around the office since these shoes make me bounce. Like a little kid, I'm having FUN!! I'm BOUNCING around! Sure, it is hard to balance since the sole shape is round. They feel like platform shoes since the soles are thick, but I feel my whole feet are touching the ground whenever I walk, toes to heal. I recommend these shoes to my husband, and I'm planning to buy a pair for him as a christmas gift if he likes them after we check them out at a local store which carries MBT shoes. I also want to buy an extra pair for myself for home use too!!

MBT Footwear markets themselves as the "anti-shoe" company. With their unique design and interesting footwear philosophy, they've quickly become a popular shoe choice for those willing to spend a little more for something different.

But, the question is - are these shoes really all they claim to be? Are they actually that comfortable and can they truly help improve posture and back pain? For a helpful review of MBT shoes and to find out if they're really worth the cost, keep reading.

Price Point

For a standard pair of MBT Footwear shoes, you can expect to pay between $220 and $280. When considering a basic sneaker, that's a lot of money, and for many it's simply too much. Fans of the shoe, though, say it's worth it.

How Comfortable are their Shoes Really?

The basic concept behind the design of MBT shoes is that they're made not just for the foot, but for the whole body. So, the manufacturers produced a shoe with a rounded sole. The concept is that it creates a more natural gait, improves your posture, reduces impact and can even relieve back pain while simultaneously burning more calories.

The reality is that for many customers who aren't accustomed to this type of shoe, the experience can be awkward and uncomfortable. Fans of the brand will tell you it just takes time to get used to the shoe, while critics say it shouldn't require a few weeks to feel comfortable in a new pair of shoes.

Personally, this brand of shoes aren't for me. Overall, I found the shoes to be uncomfortable and actually somewhat unsettling. I tried the shoes for 4 days and was still unable to get into a rhythm or comfortable walk. In short, this is a shoe that you really have to try before you commit to it.

Brand Quality

For $250 per pair, MBT shoes should be some of the best made sneakers in the world. Fortunately, they are. The company has insisted on reinforced stitching, high-end materials and good design. These shoes can withstand constant daily use and are very durable. They're also washable.

Style and Design

You'll definitely get noticed wearing an MBT shoe - the rounded sole attracts attention and certainly looks different. Whether or not the unique style appeals to you is usually a question of personal preference.

Most of these shoes come in a sneaker or casual, lace-up shoe. They're not made for evening or formal wear. So, if you're looking for something that's fashionable and comfortable, you may want to look elsewhere.

Conclusion

Whether you like MBT Footwear or consider it worth the extra money is very individual. They're good shoes that do amazing things for some people. For others? They're awkward and uncomfortable. So, try before you buy.
