i wanted to buy the new style tunisha but when i visited my local stockist to try these on i found that i am a size 4.5 left foot and size 5 right foot. really disappointed as i really wanted to buy these mbt's. anyone else had a similar problem with their odd size feet? maybe i need to find my "sole" mate who has size 5 left foot and 4.5 right foot and maybe shar/split 2 pairs of shoes! is this the end of the mbt road for me? :o(

If anyone out there has back pain and has tried all other options then I
recommend a guy called Alexander Barrie who does a treatment called
pelvic correction. After trying everyone he was the only person who got
me out of pain and showed me exercises to keep me out of pain. It takes
a quite a few visits and he is not cheap but worth it in the long run.

Alexander is based in Harrow middlesex tel number 0208 423 5659

Hello,all:
I'm seriously considering buying a pair of MBTs. I have a history of severe back pain,(s/p 3 surgeries).However, in reading of some posters having had pain and even foot surgery,I'm concerned.The fact that there seems to be issues with inferior materials doesn't help.
I'd very much appreciate if I could get some feedback that could help in my decision-either way.
Cheers, and a healthy and happy New Year to all!

Has anyone been to Trading Standards Office in UK with MBT shoes and sandals? I am a UK resident but not there at the moment but as soon as I get back I am going to go to my local office. I have forgotten the exact wording of the law but will find it out - something to do with not being suitable for the use they were sold for. Been in touch with the shop I bought them from and MBT and neither are in the least bit interested.

___80€ for new soles___,.... think of it twice

Hi All,

Got 2 pairs of MBTs.

After 8-9 months of average use, I had to replace the soles of first pair:

80€ (EIGHTY EUROS)!!!

What a joke/shock!

If you are lurking around these shoes:

+ 240€ shoe (which I was happy to pay)
+ 80€ in less than a year
_______
= 320€ in less than a year.

I really feel abused, and I am glad to see that other brands are picking up the concept. You can be good and expensive, but you just can't hope for a future by abusing your customers. If MBT does not stop that little game, they will end up chewing their own soles for breakfast.

This is the word of a businessman.

Think of it twice

Hi, I am 24 and really interested in buying myself a pair of mbt's but the thing that stops me is that I haven't yet seen a guy wearing a pair but I see loads of women in London wearing them.
Also the pair I like the most is chapa water which isn't yet available in the UK so I'll have to be patient!
Any youngish guy's out there wearing them???

Any PHYSICAL problems after buying MBTs
Posted by Zoe

Hi.... I wondered if anybody with any physical problems after using MBTs would like to comment (as opposed to problems with MBTs falling apart or problems with the manufacturer).

I'm just curious as I never had any problems with my feet whatsoever before wearing MBTs, yet within a few weeks of wearing them every day, I now have permanent damage to my feet, have had 2 operations, and am possibly facing a third operation later in the year.

I'm not suggesting the MBTs are definitely to blame as it could be a combination of using MBTs, over-exercising, or just a mere coincidence. However, if anybody else has any physical problems that they think may be attributable to MBTs, then I would be interested to know.

Many thanks

quality MBT or RYN in UK?

I can't find any RYN stockist in the UK..
http://www.rynshoes.co.uk/
seem to be out of operation.

I have heard bad things about MBT quality. It's a long time since their good quality originals.
If it's just the sole that wears, I could get it redone by a good repairer if I knew of one, but I don't. One person mentioned they had a repair but the sole didn't last as long as the original.

Where can I try on quality MBT, or RYN in the UK? (pref london)

DVD not included??

Hi there,

I live in Germany and I just bought a pair of MBTs. They are just great. My question is this: the seller I got them from said that the instructional DVD we all know about does not come included in the package anymore since December 2009, an that it has to be purchased separately. Has anyone heard of this? Anyone bought a pair after last December? Was the DVD included?
This sounds really suspicious to me.
Thanks a lot and greetings from Berlin.

my walking has improved a lot lately and I no longer use any kind of walking sticks, yippee! to help demonstrate the difference these shoes make to my ability to walk smoothly, a movie making buddy of mine has helped put this short video together showing the difference in my walking in conventional shoes and then with my MBT sandals. Feel free to watch it.
