Having had foot surgery, I only wear MBT shoes, sandals  and boots.  No other shoe even comes close to working for me. I have had trouble in the past with MBT boots not being wide enough in the calf.  I have had to have my cobbler cut the tall boots down to ankle boots.  These boots however fit perfectly from the beginning.  I have them in brown and I have received numerous compliments on how great they look - not always the case with MBT's.  So, not only are they comfortable, they look stylish.  An easy 5 star for me.
