MBT Women's Ari

The MBT Ari is the inaugural style in the new "Ultimate" line of shoes which garnered this year's Red Dot Award for Product Design! The first shoe in the physiological wellness footwear arena to do so!

Athletic-styled shoe in a variety of colors to satisfy everyone! Enjoy a good workout with this fun, breathable shoe. The unique multi-layered sole and Masai sensor emulates the feeling of walking on sand.
