  1. The positive effects of the MBT shoes are based on the “natural instability” principle. A test at Sheffield University in the UK concluded that not only would there be a reduction in strain on the body, but that MBT shoe wearers, if they walked properly, would tend to take shorter strides – which would increase the work done and tone the legs and buttocks.
