Masai Barefoot Technology (MBT) is a line of physiological footwear that has many benefits to the user. Walking in MBT's is like walking in sand. Their unique lever spring action strengthens muscles, increases shock absorption for all the joints, and naturally creates good posture for the wearer. Consequently, users of the MBT report exceptional increases in vitality and well being and there are several different styles to choose from, including sneakers, hiking boots, loafers, and sandals.

As most people walk through their day, they are putting their body through various extremes of unnatural pressure. Often the joints from the ankles, knees, hips, lower back, and all through the spine are overworked from the hard surfaces we contend with in our daily routines. The MBT footwear is designed to allow the wearer more comfort and less stress to the bones and joints while working different muscles and improving one's posture during regular daily activities. It's like excising without having to take time out of your day to do so.

Many athletes and Olympic medalists use MBT for training and have testified that they have had a very positive impact on their performance. Training with MBT can improve one's coordination, stability and balance, power and speed, and flexibility while being gentler on the spine.

Therapists also highly recommend MBT for rehabilitation and prevention of injury to back, hip, leg, and feet problems. They also benefit joint muscles and help prevent ligament and tendon injuries. Using the biomechanical function of MTB, the muscles, joints, and spine begin to function in an anatomically correct manner. Postural muscles are toned up and joint wear is reduced.
