When I started work after my college, there was one thing bothering me. Because of the job requirement, I had to wear high-heeled shoes which I had worn seldom in college to office every workday. I felt much uncomfortable, and they hurt my feet badly. Finally, after few days, my feet had grind to bubbles.

It was weekend that day, my boyfriend came to visit me. He worked in another city not far away, but it spent nearly two hours to arrive at my place. When he knocked my door, I was having rest in the bed because my feet pained heavily. He was wondering why I was still in the bed nearly lunch time.

“Sweetie, what’s going on? You are too tired or you are sick? It’s 12 o’clock now!” he asked anxiously.

I felt so wronged, “No, everything is okay; it’s just my feet hurts.” Then I told him the reason, he was very worried about me.

He let me lay on the bed as before to have a good rest, and took nice care of me the next two days. I felt so happy. What a lucky girl I am I thought when I was still in the bed in the evening that day.

On the next Friday night, he called me and told me that he’d like to surprise me when saw me tomorrow, but he didn’t tell me what the surprise is. I had no idea.

When we met the next morning, I saw a pair of strange shoes marked “MBT” on the shoes box in front of me.

“What’s this? And what do they use for?” I asked.

“Not for your feet.” He answered.

“MBT stands for Masai Barefoot Technology. The company that makes MBT Shoes is Swiss Masai. The uniquely-designed, multi-layered, cured sole is designed to simulate walking in sand. The MBT shoes can give you the utmost comfort for your feet. You know what? It’s totally different from ordinary shoes: it’s curved, not flat; it’s unstable, not stable; it activates your muscles instead of undermining them. The most important thing is that they spent my whole week salary, and the only purpose is to let you walk more comfortable and healthier.” He continued.

What a sweet surprise! I loved them so much that I insisted wear them two hours to walk everyday, and it really helped.
