The make sneakers based on the same concept - and that's what they say, that it's like walking in sand. If they were cheaper I'd try them.

Wearing MBT® is like walking in sand. Unlike most conventional training shoes that only support and cushion your feet, the inherent instability and the unique rolling action of the MBT® sole challenges postural muscles to be more active. This reactive, more supportive muscle action creates good posture and increases shock absorption for all the joints, significantly reducing musculoskeletal compression.
