Moonwalkin'

A pair of shoes can change your life ... just ask Cinderella. Or, in the words of Paolo Nutini, "I put some new shoes on and everything is alright."

A girl can never have enough shoes. There are shoes for working in & shoes for working out ... sandals for hot days & high heels for looking hot ... cozy shoes for cold days & crazy high platform shoes for showing off your balance skills.


Luckily for us girls ... comfort is now becoming fashionable. Walking through stores now you see ballarina flats & mary janes. But the latest rage is the new MBTs which stands for Masai Barefoot Technology.


Our Donnelly Euro Footwear store downtown carries the MBTs, so I decided to try on a pair and experience what all the fuss is about. As clumsy as I sometimes can be, I was a little intimidated about trying on a pair of shoes that has a curved sole. But I have to say, whey were quite a breeze to walk in. Very cushy and comfortable. The Masai sensor actually adds a little spring to your step.


These shoes are not only in style, they are HEALTHY for you. They improve your posture, relieve back pain, tone up your muscles and alleviate pressure on your joints. They are a little bit of a financial investment, but consider it a contribution to your health. I'm going to start saving up to purchase my first pair.
