I have been wearing Sketchers Shape Ups for 7 months now and let me tell you, they are a miracle. It took me 2 weeks to get use to balancing myself on them the proper way, but I am so glad I waited the 2 weeks and didn’t give up right away. I am a 29 yr old Male Nurse. After lifting heavy patients I started having major back pains. I went to the chiropractor who didn’t help much. My mom bought me these shoes, and they have made my back pain disappear completely. Even while walking with them off, I know longer have back pain. I even have my mom who had back pain wearing them. She was skeptical but was glad I told her to buy a pair and start wearing. Feel free to email me with questions or tips.

These shoes caused me serious problems. I did not fall while wearing the shoes. However, I did break by heel. After two months of physicial therapy I can now walk normal. I did exactly what the DVD and the tag stated to do when wearing for the first time but still damaged my foot to the point I had to wear a boot for two weeks and see a bone doc. Just my experience but it did happen.

Another great post reviewing a product that is marketed to grab a hold of the audience who wants quick-fixes and easy ways to stay fit. It’s great to see that you are always focusing on healthy living as a lifestyle. It’s important to be reminded that staying healthy needs a commitment and consistency! Looking forward to read more of your blog posts.

I was out looking for a good pair of shoes that I can use to stand/walk around in for 8+ hours a day. All the shoe stores were full of these. I never realized how “high” these shoes are. I had no intention of buying a pair despite the current craze. My first thought was how easy it would be to twist an ankle or become unbalanced and injure yourself. I had that experience in a pair of “Rocket Dogs” while wearing them out in the yard. Nothing against Rocket Dogs. I shouldn’t have been wearing them out in the backyard where the ground isn’t even. Thank you for your valuable information concerning all these things the infomercials like to claim to be a simple solution to weight loss problems when only eating properly and working out regularly are the solution.

I have found that they do “work,” but only while doing my usual daily jog. As my leg muscles were already toned, walking in them doesn’t make much difference. (You can do stretches in them that are impossible to do in other athletic shoes.) I still wouldn’t forgo regular exercise in favor of them, but I do like the two together.
