These shoes really delivered. Not only do they look great while walking around the office but they are also extremely comfortable. They look great with jeans around the office and nobody has ever noticed that they are Shape-ups. It may sound like a cliché by now but after about a month of wearing these my jeans now all fit much better in the upper leg and my posture has improved vastly.
Before I started wearing shape-ups I was having knee pain and a sore back because of prolong standing at work,since wearing these shoes I have no more pain in my knees.I am climbing stairs better and no sore back.I even recommended them to a co-worker who in turn bought a pair.
I searched for these at several shoe stores only to discover they only carry Shape-Ups for women and couldn’t find men’s anywhere. So,I ordered these online with the worry that it wouldn’t fit correctly and I’d have to send it back, but the sizing was perfect!
I’ve been wearing them every day to work for the last 2 weeks(I work in a bookstore 6 – 8 hours a day, 6 days a week)and I absolutely love them. They look & feel great, I don’t have any complaints. By far, this is now my favorite pair of shoes. :biggrin:
:w00t: I absolutely love these shoes! I have the black and white Trim-Step and they are the most comfortable shoe ever! I can definitely feel the difference when I walk and it’s much better than conventional shoes. :o) You can’t go wrong when buying these shoes!!
🙁 I wore these shape ups every day for the past four months. Then last week out of the blue I lost balance on my driveway (that I again use everyeday) and ended up fracturing my right tibia and fibula in 3 places which required surgery. 2 Plates and 17 screws later I will never wear those shoes again. After this happened I started investigating all the bad stuff about these shoes that is written on the internet, and it seems that I am not the only one who has had this same exact problem with these shoes. They are dangerous!!! Please be careful if you are still wearing them.
