Interesting to put that in Style!! I have a pair as well and would say they are not that stylish - but then neither am I and I am here..

I have to say I am not sure about them - I get blisters from them really easily despite use of socks etc and not really noticed any change in posture or appearance - butthat may be due to my being crippled by blisters!!

I try every 6 months to learn to love them as they are still my most expensive ever clothing purchase!!

Hope you have more success

I love mine but....NOT stylish in an capacity.

If you "walk" them properly....you can feel those glutes tensing, too!

I'm not at all 'stylish' either, ZZMum!!! I've been told to persevere so will wear them for short periods initially. Fingers crossed!!

Well, they've arrived!! Am wearing them around the house - they do feel 'odd' but are still comfortable. Will keep you informed...............

I gave up on mine as I found them too heavy and clumpy, plus I bought a cheap pair off e-bay and the colouring is a bit naff.

Tip....

When I first got mine, I was standing at the basin early one morning just prior to going for my first MBT enhanced power walk. I was cleaning my teeth and leant forward to spit. Closed my eyes as you do and fell over into the handbasin.

So, keep your eyes open love, they sure confuse your balance when first using!!!
