They are well made and have held up. I bought them to wear on a trip to Africa with a lot of walking. I have had plantar fasciitis on the right and a tib-fib fracture on the left with ankle pain. These shoes have been very comfortable. They do require some "breaking in". Not because they are stiff but because the balance is different. They are like wearing ski boots at first. You have to get used to how they change your balance (for the better). So I wore them for several hours at a time until I got used to them. I did slip once when I walked on a slick surface and reflexly leaned backwards. Just like with skis, I fell on my bottom. I learned to stay forward and haven't fallen since. After you wear these for a while, you start walking on the middle of your foot. You can walk very quickly and comfortably. They do work your calves and buttocks. I used to have trouble getting out of the passenger seat of my wife's convertible. I felt like an old person having to pull myself out. Now it is much easier to get out. I assume these shoes have gotten my legs stronger. I would highly recommend them. They are casual. I asked my wife if I could wear them to work and she said, "No, too casual". So I purchased another pair that are brown leather from the same manufacturer (MBT). I just couldn't go back to the Rockports. They were comfortable but not like these shoes. Definitely worth the money. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ MBT Tembea Mink Shoe *by N***D on November 14, 2013* The shoe is a little snug in the toe box but I believe that it will stretch a little and fit just fine. MBT boots and shoes are meticulously designed and manufactured. Just take some getting used to because walking on the rocker platform takes some getting used to. I like them because I have Plantar Fasciitis and it helps to alleviate stress and pain in the heel. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reprint of my review for Fanaka *by S***E on April 15, 2011* I've been wearing nothing but MBT's since I first tried them. I had surgery on my knee a few years ago and find that most regular shoes result in my slamming my heel down first when I walk, making the knee progressively more tender. With the MBT's this isn't possible. i don't think it's doing anything for the shape of my legs, as advertised, but it sure is a relief on the knees! The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is that the soles wear awy fairly rapidly compared to other shoes. The first time I encountered this phenomenon I figured it was because I was wearing the same shoe, day in and day out. Then I bought another pair and alternated. The new pair wore down fairly quickly. So this time I bought 3 pairs. We'll see. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/609580224-mbt-mens-tembea-casual-shoe](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/609580224-mbt-mens-tembea-casual-shoe) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
