Skechers shape up shoes

Has anyone tried the Skechers shape up shoes? Are they worth the money? Thought about getting them but don't want to spend the money if they aren't worth it. Thanks

I haven't tried them personally but have found a few articles online that review them:

Also, if you're worried about price, Curves offers a similar shoe through Avon for half the price:

Thanks for the info. I don't mind paying the price if they are worth it. Skechers are about the only shoe that I have found that are comfortable. I may have to try them.

I tried them on once... felt super weird.
Not sure I'm willing to part with that much on shoes.
I'd probably buy them if they went on sale though.

I have the sketchers shape ups, I haven't really noticed a difference after wearing them, and I've had them for a few weeks. I still wear them when I go for walks, but they don't seem to do anything. I'm not really sure what I was expecting them to do. Someone at work asked me if I was trying to be a spice girl, cause they are so big.

I've had mine a few weeks and the first day, I noticed some soreness in my lower back but that was probably from posture changes since their design does kind of force you to balance your core differently. Not sure I can say I notice a difference in leg tone and such, but I do know this...these are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn!! I wear them daily for my "running around" stuff. My feet never feel achy at the end of the day and my regular gym shoes feel funny when I put them back on. I'm thinking of trying them on a treadmill workout to see if I notice a difference. I don't think that for the price, they could hurt. Especially if you can incorporate them into a regular daily routine since they are so good on your feet!

while it wouldn't surprise me if these shoes do some small measure of good, I don't know whether the improvements will be anything close to dramatic. I guess it all depends on what your expectations are. I wouldn't expect to wear them for a few weeks, and expect dramatically better core muscles, or noticeably shapelier hips and thighs, but I imagine if you couple them with other exercise routines, it could help somewhat.

I have been wearing mine for a few weeks now. At first I noticed my lower back was sore and could tell that I had been standing different. As far as are they going to shape me up--no but they are comfy now that I am use to them. Went shopping all day with my kids at the mall and my feet were tired but they did not hurt like they normally do. I like them and they were worth it to me.

anyone thats worried on the price of the shoes can look on ebay. I searched them the other day and found them for ALOT cheaper than in stores and they are new. Just a thought.....
