 35% Off! Masai Barefoot Technology Provides Serious Exercise Value While You Walk, Work or Shop!
Years of tennis have taken their toll on my knees — so
I’ve replaced high-impact running with low-impact
walking to stay healthy. But I’ve got to walk 3-4 miles a day
at a healthy clip, to
really work up a
sweat. There must
be a way, short of
running, to improve
the exercise value of
my daily walk —
without adding
distance, or time
I just don’t have.
Little did I know the
answer would come Out of
Africa, through Switzerland.
Different — Let’s be frank. On first glance, these
shoes simply look… different. But that’s beside the
point. Masai Barefoot Technology shoes are all about
better health, and fantastic comfort, not about
conforming. But then when you consider that their
unique form reflects a superior function, they start to look
better and better. I’m actually starting to prefer the looks of mine!
 Barefoot — Dating back to 1400 B.C., the Masai people of Eastern Africa have
always walked barefoot on the soft, sandy ground of the vast Mara plain. This ever-shifting, uneven
terrain causes the Masai’s muscles to work harder — one reason they have almost zero body fat —
developing into natural shock absorbers that protect their back, knee and hip joints. And instead of
slouching, the Masai’s barefoot lifestyle forces them into a more erect, better-balanced posture that
aligns the skeletal system properly, and takes the pressure off
muscles and joints. Miraculously, when you wear
MBT’s, you gain the same healthful benefits — on
the hard flat floors, streets, and sidewalks of
Western society!
 Step into a better body —
Swiss-engineer Karl Müller
worked for over a decade
to develop a sport shoe
that would address the
chronic back, knee and
foot problems that plague
modern man. Inspired by the Masai
example, he succeeded in developing a multi-layered
sole that transforms hard, flat surfaces into soft,
shifting terrain
— much like the
plains of Africa.
Slip into a pair
of MBT shoes, and
you’ll
immediately
notice the
lavishly
cushioned, rocker sole. Much like
walking in sand, the spring-action
sole forces the core muscles to
be more active in order to
maintain balance. So you’ll
tone and tighten
underworked
muscles, and
strengthen your
calves, thighs,
butt, and abs — as MBT shoes engage more muscles in the
simple act of walking! Without even
thinking, you’ll stand noticeably more
erect, without the usual slouching or
slumping of the shoulders. In turn,
this superior posture augments the
already extraordinary cushioning effect of
MBT’s, to dramatically increase shock absorption
for all joints.
 Like a Day at the Beach — Wearing
MBT shoes, my normal 3-mile walk becomes a revelation.
My eyes told me I was walking on hard asphalt
streets, but my legs felt like I was walking on soft
Caribbean sand! And I noticed muscles I
hadn’t felt before, particularly in my
thighs, abdomen and buttocks.
The heel-to-toe roller motion
required of each stride
reduced forces on my hip
and knee joints,
significantly
lessening strain.
When walking downhill in particular, I noticed a
complete absence of knee pressure and
pain. And even standing still, they
subtly require muscle activity to
maintain balance. So you’re working
out while you’re standing still! MBT shoes
are the perfect solution, not only for
those who walk for exercise, but also
for those who are on their feet all day
— and who pay the price all night in
foot, knee, hip, and back pain! All
models give you the same health and
exercise benefits; Men’s shoes available in
1/2 sizes 8-14. Women’s 1/2 sizes 51/2 -11.
