MBT Shoes Revisited The anti-shoe, also known as MBT shoes, are not your normal kind of footwear. It's a relatively new concept in shoe design developed to be both physiologically and anatomically correct. The concept was developed while studying the tribes of Africa and how they walked. It was discovered that this nomadic group walk extremely long distances on a daily basis, with a most amazing realization that they had perfect posture and a low amount of back pain even though they were on their feet for long durations. It was found that they walk barefoot and on uneven ground and is attributed to the tribe's healthy conditions. The MBT shoes and other footwear were developed to mimic this instability and do so with the innovative sole construction. MBTs are known for the extra weight loss possibilities, but there are several other features that I ll describe in this article.
