MBT_Masai_Barefoot_Technology_footbed_trio

Each pair of Masai Barefoot Technology (MBT) Shoes comes with an insole made from high quality foam creating a layer of orthopedic padding that provides extra cushion with every step.  This along with the MBT patented heel sensor helps to reduce impact  on knee and hip joints making them ideal orthopedic shoes.

Go stylishly retro and combine the best of street fashion and function with the timeless MBT 1997 Classic, great for fitness walking or everyday wear.    

  • UPPER is made of textile and genuine cow suede leather
  • FOOTBED is mesh for breathability and removable for custom fit
  • OUTSOLE is made of MBT High Abrasion Rubber
  • MBT LEVEL 3 ROCKER which generates an increased level of rock to provide extra cushioning and maximum muscle activation.
  • ROCKER BOTTOM SHOE – From the point your heal first hits the ground until your toes leave it, the curved sole of the MBT rocker shoe matches the natural movement of your foot while giving the same stability as a traditional walking shoe. The gentle roll promotes a natural cushioning to your feet and the angle of the PivotAxis, critical to the Pivot Strike location at the midfoot, provides the ideal foot striking platform to transition into propulsion or a forward movement while enhancing support.
  • TECHNOLOGY IN THE SHOE – MBT’s proprietary SensorTechnology in the heel produces a natural cushioning required by a short or long distance walker. The PivotAxis Technology promotes balance and a natural movement that with each stride activates muscles required for good posture. The lasting board and engineered shank are specially developed for the MBT sole construction which provides comfort & support.
  • CREATED WITH STABILITY IN MIND – The stability of the MBT shoe is identical to any high-quality walking shoe and the only roll you feel is from your heal to your toes. There is no side to side roll so run or walk with confidence. The Tri-density Midsole features extensive cushioning that allows for a better ride.

This shoe is made in European Sizes which do not have an even correlation to US sizes. It is highly recommended that you measure your foot in centimeters using the instructions below to determine the best shoe size for your feet.

 

This shoe tends to run small. If you border-line between sizes and your measurement is not exact in the chart, we recommend selecting the next size up which tends to be a size larger than you normally wear.

Measure your feet

Wear the type of socks you'll wear with your shoes and measure feet in the afternoon (feet typically swell during the day). Distribute weight evenly before measuring.

1.  Step 1 for Measuring Your Foot

Place a piece of paper on a hard floor with one end to the wall. Stand on the piece of paper with the heel slightly touching the wall.

2. Step 2 for Measuring Your Foot

Mark the end of your longest toe with a pencil for both feet.

3.  Step 3 for Measuring Your Foot

Take the larger of the two foot length values and compare it with our sizing chart, to define your shoe size.
