■About MBT Shoes
Founded in 1996 in Switzerland as a functional shoe brand.
MBT, named after the abbreviation of Masai (マサイ)
Barefoot (裸足の)
Technology (技術), was created by focusing on the exceptional physical abilities and
beautiful posture of the Masai people walking barefoot on the ground.

MBT replicates the technique of the Masai walking barefoot.
It resets body distortions, reduces the burden on the soles of the feet, and promotes the use of muscles that are not easily engaged in daily life.

With a patented special sole (shoe bottom),
this functional shoe also offers benefits such as improved posture, increased basal metabolism, and core training.

For Those Using MBT for the First Time

MBT is a completely different foot fare from conventional shoes, and for first-time users, it particularly functions as a training device.
Our modern bodies have not been utilizing various muscles and abilities that are inherently present due to walking continuously on paved hard surfaces or due to daily biased movements, leading to a dormant state.
When you first use MBT, due to its unstable sole design, you may feel the comfort of walking on soft ground while also experiencing fatigue in muscles that are not often used due to its training effect, and you may be confused about how to maintain balance.
We kindly ask that you gradually increase the wearing time to acclimate your body when using it for the first time.
