Patented sole construction

The key to the patented MBT Footwear is the sole construction with the Masai Sensor at the heart and the balancing area. Touching down on the soft sensor creates a comfortable feeling and creates a natural instability that can have a positive effect on the muscle activity of the lower extremities. Rolling over the balancing area can help improve posture and balance.

Durability and repair

Our experience has shown that the MBT lasts longer than a conventional shoe. ... Of course. However, to protect the Masai Sensor and to avoid sole fractures, the MBT should be resoled before the outsole wears out.
