( I first heard about MBT shoes from a friend. She's very toned, posture straight, and looked great. I asked her what she did to keep her figure. She showed me her MBT shoes, and told me that those were all she wore, she never exercised.
This intrigued me, so I googled it, and was convinced right away.
I didn't get my first ones till many months later, the country where I lived made it rather difficult to obtain them.
In the meanwhile, I developed a calcium spur in my left heel, which made it progressively more painful to wear normal shoes.
And this situation hastened my search for my first MBT. Finally got them in May '08, and literally those are all I wear since then. I probably wore non-MBT shoes 5 times altogether since I started wearing them.
These are some of the benefits I derive from wearing them:
- I no longer feel the pain in the heels because of the sole structure of MBT shoes.
- I could walk or be on my feet for hours and not feel tired
- Friends commented almost immediately how straight I stand, and how quickly my posture had improved
- Allowed me faster recovery from my fall, the shoes act like a physiotherapist, that constantly re-train my injured foot.
After my fall a couple about 6 weeks ago, where I experienced severe joint dislocations which made walking almost impossible, the MBT helped me recover. In them I could walk almost normal, whereas without them I could not walk properly (limping etc.) Now 6 weeks later, I hardly feel the remainder of the fall.
I could not stress enough the advantages of wearing MBT shoes. They're really a boon for the feet, so if you love yourself, you'd want to take care of those feet that support your weight all your life. Get a pair of MBT straight away, the price is really irrelevant compared to the benefits gained from wearing them.
The first pair I bought was Kaya brown suede, which is my everyday and dressy pair combined, and my second pair is the Women's M-Walk, which I used for gym work and walking. They don't have running shoes, but between these two I'm a happy wanderer!
