When my son compained about sore feet I told him about MBT's. However he didn't like the styles calling them dull and pedestrian. That is until I found this boot. "Love it" was his response, and that opinion didn't change once it arrived. This is a stylish boot with very essential ankle support, extremely well crafted and good leather. While the MBT system  took him a bit of getting used to (as it gave his whole body a workout)he is sold on them. After wearing his old sneakers for a day it was back to having sore feet. The only complaint he has is that they are like walking on glass on wet pavements. And thats hardly a complaint. Thank god MBT made a stylish boot.
