 Changed My Life, Ever So Grateful Jan 04, 2009
I have suffered from ball of foot pain for for over 2 years. I have been to the podiatrist and to an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in feet. I have had various physical therapies. Ortho pads have helped especially the "dancer pad" from Hapad, but despite my efforts, walking was something to be avoided, and so many things I once enjoyed doing were now out of the question. I bought these shoes, my first MBT's, about 2 months ago. I wear them with my "dancer pad." I can walk anywhere. I can go on vacation, and walk for hours. I am so thrilled, it is hard to describe. What a pity I did not try these a long time ago! If you have a foot problem, these are sure worth a try. They are not the prettiest shoes, but when I regained the ability to walk in comfort, pretty was not even a factor. Now that I can walk in comfort, I think they are beautiful! I have now also purchased an MBT sandal. I'm back!
 For $250 I should give it zero stars Dec 17, 2008
I would like these shoes a lot better if two things weren't so bad.
1. The maryjane straps are really short. I have narrow, small feet so anyone with larger, um... meatier feet should go with something else. When the straps are closed they dig into my feet and really are annoying and not very comfortable. I can't imagine how much worse it would be if my feet were thicker.
2. The shoes slip up and down on my heels when I walk - and not just a little. It's like the shoes come off with every step.
I'm going to return them and try the sneaker version. I've heard such great things about this brand and really want to give them a shot.

These are the shoes for plantar fasciatis Dec 04, 2008
For years I've become more and more sedentary because my heels hurt SO MUCH due to plantar fasciatis.
With these shoes (I have 2 pairs of MBTs) I can be on my feet for 10 hours straight and not feel a bit of strain. This is on the level of a miracle cure! It's amazing to me that these shoes were never prescribed or suggested to me by the foot surgeons/physical therapists i've been to.
I do find them hot, as did the last reviewer. But small matter compared to the new lease on life (or being on my feet, anyway!)

Great for posture Sep 23, 2008
I bought this through a regular store after reading that the nylon ones fall apart. This shoe has held up and is great for helping me stand up straight. It is a stiff material, a bit hot after wearing for long periods of time and the material does not "breath".
