What do you all think of the Reebock Easy-Tone? I just spent $99 on the last pair at my local store! I hope they are worth it!

What are your experiences? Did you get some for Christmas?

    I don't have them but I did read a review that they don't really do much "toning" but they are supposed to be really comfortable which hence makes you walk more, hopefully you will have good luck with them :smile:

    Bummer! I was hoping for some help in the toning mission... I guess it was too good to be true. : (

    Well you never know, doesn't hurt to try especially if you end up walking more! :bigsmile:

    I've heard that you need to walk at least 10,000 steps a day to see results.
    But they do look super comfy.

    Update! I wore them all weekend including... playing on my Wii Fit Plus for 1/2 hr on Saturday and moving two beds on Sunday. My butt and hamstrings hurt! Must be working.

    When I switched from support shoes that had too much arch support to a neutral pair, my quads were really sore for a couple weeks! My stance originally had included supination in my ankles, which loaded the weight on my lateral (outside) quad group and put a lot of strain on my IT band. Now the weight is loaded directly, so it includes my medial (middle) quad groups. After a year of inappropriate shoes, this new loading made my quads really sore. But it doesn't 'tone' them. I will only gain definition from fat loss.

    Hi Everybody,
    I got the sketchers variety of this type of shoe for my birthday in November so I've been wearing them faithfully for a little over a month now. The mind of course wants a quick fix.. but there's really no substitue for exercise and eating right! Go figure:laugh:
    That being said I love my shoes and I did feel a slight ache in glutes and hamstrings. I have worn shoes that haven't been giving me enough support for years and had no clue. These are my "go to" shoes and I wish they had more variety that would be office appropriate. They took me about 2 wearings to adjust but after that , no problems at all. I wear them walking and for aerobic exercise too.

    Hope that helps and make it a great day,
    Janet:heart:
