This is my second pair of Skechers Shape Ups. I’m a bit of a fashionista when it comes to shoes, and this style will work for casual as well as speed walking. Why do I love these shoes so much? I injured my back several years ago, and had to drastically change my workout routine. I was left with sciatica, which flares up even during a casual walk. And forget about running. However, these are the ONLY shoes I can wear any type of walking exercise. I am so grateful for these shoes – the price is moderate compared to other brands and the styles are great – they keep getting better all of the time. These are NOT your grandmother’s orthopedic shoes! Keep it up, Skechers. Great styles and prices will keep me coming back for more! LOVE them!
I returned the shoes within the week, after wearing them only in my home.Skechers markets these shoes appropriately, I just don’t think they were the right shoe for me. And at [$] a pair, I want to make sure I use what I purchase.
I them the fact that I can wear them with any set of scrubs I decide to wear to work that day. They go with everything. Am going to be purchasing another pair very soon! They are very lightweight and they help me to keep my balance better since I am on my feet for 8+ hours every day at work. Much better than my old clogs I used to wear!!!!
The only problem I see: You need bright colors for the Spring and Summer. I love these shoes.The[…] at the Mall in Monroe is the bestand the most fun place to get your Shape Ups. I am a young 65 years of age and can’t wait to buy my new Shapers for the Spring from […] – I walk with a group of people and we all want more colors for the Spring and Summer (lime green, orange, bright yellow and pink, etc..)
I really love this shoe, it’s perfect for the weekends when I take the kids to ride their bikes, they are little so they don’t go fast, I put my Shapeups on and walk and I still feel like I’m getting a workout and toning, while they have fun. Also perfect for shopping, I feel good that I’m toning while I shop or run errands and take the kids to the park, I like to get my heart rate up and sometimes you can’t, that’s when you put these on and get a toning workout. Fantastic!!!
I have to be honest at first i really disliked this shoe I thought they were ugly and a wast of money. Now with that said, I am a proud owner of shape ups and will defentily by another pair(lol). I went to the shoe store to get another pair of shoes and the sales lady insisted that i try on shape ups and once i did and walked around in them i was SOLD. they are so comfortable and they help my posture which releives my back pain and after 6 days of wearing them I lost 5 pounds 🙂
I have scoliosis & frequenty bouts of sciatica. since buying my new skechers Shape-ups I have had only a couple of sciatic twinges. I have had mine for nearly a month & wear them everyday for work on a concrete floor. I love them. & look forward to getting my next pair.
The toe box is very short so you will need a half size larger unless you have short stubby toes…I guess you would be fine in that case. All regular toed people will require more room, the shoe runs short, but is great. It is a wide shoe but even on a skinny foot like mine it still works and feels great.
I am forty five mother of two statered wearing immediately upon arrival, I was two hundred and thirty pounds, have diabetic neurophathy in both feet I suffer with lower back pain. Since wearing my shape-ups. I wieghed in at my last doctors visit 12/21/09 at 213. I no longer have numbness aching or burning in both my feet. I have not taken any aleve or advil for my lower back. I am climbing 4 flights of stairs with ease…My energy level is high and I intend to purchase several diiferent styles over the next few months I am absolutely amazed thank you.
I love the fact that these Skechers shoes are very comfortable. I was able to “adapt” to them immediately.
I wear them everywhere sneakers are appropriate: to the beauty shop; driving out-of-town; grocery shopping; Christmas shopping; babysitting; leisure walking; in my office as I file and put away other paperwork; anywhere I can walk.
I wear them with jogging suits, jeans, and my business attire as I walk to and from my car to the office, and in the office.
These shoes are great for working if you walk or stand on hard surfaces all day. After I got them, my aunt got two pairs and they helped her back and joint pain. I don’t really have pain, but they do make me stand up straighter and feel more balanced and bouncy.
