You can order them online. At the mall they run about $280 for shoes and $400 for boots. I wouldn't want to wear them on stairs.

Earth shoes are good for walking and don't cost as much.

I love my MBT's. I have the sneaker kind and they help my knees, hips and back. I got SO a pair last year for Christmas to wear to work since he works on concrete all day. He loves his too. I will say you have to be careful if you walk through the yard or other uneven surfaces with their curved bottoms. And there are days I can't wear mine if my right knee is really acting up and I have to drive somewhere. The soles are thick and I can't always bend my knee enough to get in the car on the driver's side. They are wonderful for walking on hard surfaces, making it feel more like you're walking on grass than concrete.

I would recommend that you find a store that carries the MBT's and try on the style you want since they seem to run a 1/2 smaller than other shoes.

I can't spend that much money on one pair of shoes.

I had a pair of Earth shoes a few years ago, and they brought on plantar fasciitis. They were pretty comfy though.

bryansda, You wear those driving?!?! I would imagine that the thick sole would impair driving and certainly the fact that the soles are curved. I would not think I could feel the clutch and pedals properly.

I have a really bad back and have for many years. I bought these shoes about 6 months ago and LOVE them. I walk a lot and I can walk in them for hours without back pain. I bought them discontinued on Amazon for $99.00. They are worth the money.

Donna, are they only good for walking, or are they OK for stairs and driving. They look dangerous. How are the soles? They don't have grippies on the bottom. Are they slippery on wet/greasy tile?

I don't have a car, but I doubt they would be good driving shoes. You have to go slow with stairs too. They have a thick rubber soul that's shaped like a boat. When you walk your heel doesn't pound the pavement, it kind of rolls. You also can't walk with one foot turned sideways, they must be pointed straight ahead. Do a search under MBT and find a local store that sells them. I tried them on first. Otherwise I think Amazon will return them if they don't work for you.
I'm on my second pair and am waiting for the Mary Jane's to get discontinued so I can also wear them for work. They are best for walking though.

dilly, I have no problems driving in my MBT's, only getting my knee to bend enough to get my right leg in the car. The only problems I've had with them is when I stepped on a dog bone on the floor or when I go to get up from a toilet (I know that sounds crazy). The added thickness of the soles makes getting up from being seated kind of hard, but most chairs have arms to push up on and a toilet doesn't.....LOL.

I too about chocked at the prices of these shoes, BUT I have knee problems and if it will put off knee replacement in the years to come for a little longer than I consider them well worth the price. I liked mine so much my chiropractor tried a pair and I haven't seen him in anything else since he got his first pair. He said the first day he wore them he didn't wake that night with his legs bothering him (his office is carpet on concrete) and within three days no longer was bothered by his heal spurs.
