Mbt Shoes - Anyone Had Any Good Results?

[joko]

there seems to be varying opinions from 'experts', some saying useless, otehrs saying great, some even saying dangerous ... but i just wondered if anyone had used them and had any results?

i ask because i bought a pair of boots with a curved sole and have noticed a strange 'wobbly weakness' in my thighs - i assume that its the little used muscles being used, or being used differently anyway, and that will pass when i get used to them - much like the feeling people get after exercise theyre not used to.

any thoughts?

thanks

Bought a pair. Did not enjoy at all and got rid of them. My friend who suggested them to me actually had a bad experience and I think twisted her ankle.

Why does that linked page read like it's been translated into English?


I can't give you any advice about this type of shoe, joko. I did, however, sell Skechers shoes which were similar in design, and I advised any customer looking at them.....

The main thing to remember with this type of shoe is to walk ONLY - no running, no excercising.

I've been wearing Fit Flops for a few years now and I love them, whether they actually do any good I don't know, but they are really comfy :)

i have noticed the occasional 'leg jarring', such as if changing direction suddenly or something, but theyre fairly easy to walk in when you get used to them

I had trainers like that and loved them, they were brilliant when I had plantar fasciitis.

I live in Fitflop boots. Fitflops are based on the same principal I have severe osteoarthritis in my feet, osteo in hips and other areas and am hypermobile. They really are the only thing I can walk in comfortably.
