Masai Barefoot Technology, or MBT, is the first physiological footwear – in other words, footwear that has a positive effect on the whole body.

The health–and fitness-enhancing concept behind MBT is based on a straightforward insight: the human musculo-skeletal system is designed to walk barefoot on soft, natural ground. We, however, walk almost exclusively on hard, flat surfaces.

With each step we take, pressure acts on the foot. MBTs distribute this load evenly, which prevents ailments that can be caused by concentration of pressure on individual points.
The body reacts to this natural instability with intuitive compensatory movements. This provides neglected muscles with effective exercise.

Medical
Masai Barefoot Technology for medical applications: MBTs can contribute significantly to alleviating a variety of ailments, and are used by many doctors, physiotherapists, osteopaths and podiatrists to treat patients.

Sports
Barefoot Technology is used as a sports training and rehab device: many professional athletes rely on MBTs for recuperation, prevention and accelerated healing of injuries and in endurance and coordination training.

Daily Use
Masai Barefoot Technology in everyday use: train muscles, burn calories, protect joints ... all while you're doing something else. Shopping, in the office, at home. MBTs act as training equipment, every step of the way.
