Shoes and Balance? Discussion Forum

What does MBT mean?? Sorry for being so dense, teokimhoe. I stopped wearing jogging shoes just as soon as I was diagnosed. I changed to walking shoes, as suggested in some of the early research I did on the net about living with Parkinson's.I have been battling lately to find a Sunday shoe that did not make my balance worse. I haven't worn even a small heel for years, long before I was diagnosed, but even dressy flats were giving me more problems than I wanted. I didn't want to wear the athletic walking shoes to church with dressy pants suits, but for the longest couldn't find an alternative. Then I found some Skechers sneakers that fit perfectly and I like the looks. They are lace up, with suede and leather sections, and don't really look like athletic shoes. But they have helped my balance considerably on Sundays, and for that I am grateful.
