shoes: sketchers resistance runners

godblessourhome

anyone have these? i tried on a pair at a race today and fell in love with the fit and light-weight feel of them. are they a good performance shoe?

i normally wear a pair of nike's or saucony, but i think i might switch.

LOVE My Skecher Shape Ups... Just be sure to watch the Video that come with them, and break them in gradually. They are NOT recommended for people with Knee or Balance issues.

edited to add--I did have trerrible knee pain before I lost weight and the shoes did not seem to aggravate them. The knee pain is pretty much non-existent now, although the Range of Motion is still a bit limited.

My sketcher's are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned, and I only wish I had bought them years sooner!!

I have Skechers tone ups. I love them, they are so comfortable and great to walk in. Idk if it's due to knee injury but I can't do workouts in them that have a side to side motion bc it puts too much strain on my calves and they hurt, but I love them for everything else!

I, too, am a great fan of the skechers. I think I'm a bit to old to start running (LOL), but I do love my Shape-ups. In fact, they are almost the only shoe I wear. Don't ask how many pairs I have--I'm embarrassed to admit--but I even wear them to work (I work on a college campus, so a lot of walking is in store on a normal day).

I wear Sketchers Feather Lite and would not wear anything else. Most comfortable sneaker I have ever had. I just bought another pair off their website.
