A shoe just for you
Other significant design changes are the drop in pitch between the heel cheap mbt sandals and toe of shoes, so the heels aren't as built up as they were, making shoes feel slightly flatter.

“If you go too flat [in a shoe pitch] most people will overstretch their calf mbt shoes muscles and Achilles tendons,” says Ouphred. “The more proficient you are as a runner the flatter you can go with your shoes.”

You then slide your foot in and tighten the laces which pull the whole sock up snugly around your foot, effectively moulding itself on. Called the Hyperfeel, it is incredibly comfortable and light.

It's not suitable for orthotics, however.
