Ouch!

I was at the "Walking Store," had my feet measured, and tried out the Sirima shoe. Size 7, everything felt fine. I came home, and ended up ordering the Kaya from Amazon because it was more than $100 cheaper. Reading the reviews, I even went up half a size and ordered the 7 1/2. When the Kaya arrived, I was pleasantly surprised that it was cuter in person. Then I tried it on. I was in immediate pain due to both the shortness of the shoe and the narrow shoe box. My toes hit the front of the shoe and were squeezed so much that they hurt. I wasn't even wearing any socks; I was so sad! And had to return the shoes. (I ended up ordering the Lami in black and it fits fine in a 7 1/2.)

Amazing

I recently sustained several fractures in my foot and have walked with pain and a distinct limp for 9 weeks. I put this shoe on and was pain free and no limp!!! Amazing. And I thought that I would be in a "orthopedic" shoe. But it is fairly attractive and my friends don't notice that it is "special". I did however, have to learn to be careful getting up from sitting as it is easy to pitch forward with the rocker bottom.

Odd Sizing Issues

I got these in the mail a few days ago and think they are clunky cute, love how they feel when I walk and can feel different muscles being used when I walk in them as compared to barefoot or 'normal' shoes.

However, they run small my length is a perfect size six and I bought one size up and they just fit. I also am no able to wear them for more than about 30 minutes at a time because I need to break them in enough for my fat little feet to feel comfortable. I've never had a problem with Mary Jane's before but I think the special insert pushes my foot up just enough that it's a bit tight - and I don't want to go up another size because then they will be too big on me. I wish the bed of the shoe was a tiny bit deeper.

Other than the sizing issues these are awesome shoes, they feel good when walking, I feel my posture improve while I have them on and I used different leg muscles when I walk in them.

MBT Women's Kaya Mary Jane

Just received my MBT Mary Janes and am already in love with this amazing shoe! I'm usually a 7.5 N and the 7.5 M fits really well since the velcro strap makes for either a snug or looser fit. I didn't want to take the plunge and plunk down $146.75 for a casual shoe - but, my feet say "Thanks!"

Love this shoe

I love this shoe. It is very confortable, pleasant to wear, and it looks good too. I wear them to work everytime I can. Highly recommend them to people who wants walking and elegant shoe in the same time.

From now on, instead of going for a lunch I walk around a block during my work lunch time.
