Hammer toe

I have had my MBT shoes for about 4 months. I developed a hammer toe, right foot second toe. At first it felt like I was walking on a marble at the base of that toe. Soon after my toe started arching(the toe will not lay flat). Has anyone else experienced this?

There's a very good chance your big-toe-joint is locking at toe-off, thuf forcing your lesser toes to grab or "hammer". To resolve this issue, try placing the Cluffy Wedge underneath the insole of your MBT. For more info about where to find the Cluffy Wedge, visit www.cluffy.com

I just started experiencing this yesterday!!

I've been wearing my MBTs more lately, and had noticed that my toes were
getting sore, but hoped I would just work through it - until now! I have a hard
time walking on my right foot now, and though I've been trying to stretch it out
(and wear suuuper comfy shoes) it hasn't helped yet.

Did you find anything that helped? Have you stopped wearing your MBTs? I
work on my feet so this is really inconvenient...
