I wore my shapeups skechers 11800WSL yesterday for the first time and only for 2 hours. They felt good but when I got home I looked down and the kinetic wedge on both shoes was falling apart. Not repairable.

I love these shoes. I feel like I am walking on springy marshmallows. They are comfortable and energizing at the same time. The first time I wore them I was on my feet for 8 hours at work and they still felt fine. I am very happy with this purchase.

Love these for winter! I now have six pairs of shape-ups and haven't been disappointed yet. Am a dog walker, so all my shoes getting quite the workout!

Love 'em! Very comfy and secure fitting. I also love Zappos...paying no shipping charges I'm amazed that both times I've ordered from them, I've had my package within 3 days. I live out in the boonies, so I normally expect it to take longer than usual, Zappos delivers on their promises and again I do love the shoes and find them very comfortable. I have pins and plates in my ankle and was a little worried I might have a problem with the shape, but to my surprise I've had no problems at all. Highly recommend!

I absolutely love these shoes. In fact I like them so well I have 3 pair and am considering buying the 4th. I wear them all day, every day. I hope they keep making them as I would love to continue wearing them. I am 65 years old and love them. No break in time.

I have worn my fair share of walking, running, hiking shoes and boots...from Adidas to Etonic and New Balance...and Nike and Reebok. I am in the Nursing, Medical Field and trust me, nurses are always looking for "that one shoe!" Skechers have done it. Medical problems that come along with the harshness of the nursing field have been somewhat "tamed" by just lacing up a pair of these shape-ups. I have no complaints! Keep up the good work Skechers! None other compares.

I broke my heel and tore ligaments 7 years ago. I have had pain ever since. I work on concrete floors. During and after work, most of the time, I have real bad pain and sometimes my wife has to rub my foot just to ease it. I tried a pair of the new Shape Ups this past Saturday. After about 5 minutes, the pain in my foot diminished to a slight discomfort. I have worn them for 3 days at work and I can't believe how much better I feel. My foot has hurt for 7 years, and since I have had these shoes, my foot has felt better than it has felt in 7 years. I thank you for them and will be buying more in the future. I do recommend them to everyone. Thank you again.

I purchased these because I have foot pain when I step on the ball of my foot or place my feet flat on the floor. I put on Skechers Shape Ups, and I was pain free immediately. I love these shoes!

I have done waitressing for over 10 years and in the midst have developed plantar fasciitis and heal spurs from walking in badly supported slip-frees on mainly cement floors. Not a good combo. I have never been able to find a shoe that has left me satisfied. Until I bought the shape up slip frees, I would be in pain by the end of the night, even with price, personally made orthotics. Slip frees allow my foot and calf to stretch so that my plantar fasciitis does not tighten up over the course of a 8-15 hour shift at work. thank you Skechers for making a slip free that works.

I purchased these Skechers because I have nerve damage in my legs and have balance issues. These shoes are great. I wear them everywhere including PT. They have helped me enormously with my issues and highly recommend them. People stop me and ask about them. I cannot speak highly enough about the quality and the fact that they really work. Great investment. Also love the color (black).

Working all day on concrete was horrible until I purchased my first pair of Shape-ups. I no longer have heel pain, knee pain or lower-back pain. In fact my chiropractor says he can see a definite improvement in my lower back, since I have been wearing Shape-Ups to work. These shoes are fantastic! Worth every penny! I work in a shoe store and am touting the benefits of Shape-ups to customers each day! They also help tone legs and buttocks. If you like to power-walk, you will feel a difference in your lower-abs. My husband loves the way my legs look, since wearing Shape-ups. I highly recommend Shape-Ups.

These shoes are great. I've lost 5 lbs in one week with these shoes. I would definitely recommend these shoes if you are a very active person.

First of all, Zappos' service cannot be beat. You can order online from the comfort of your home and have your shoes delivered the next day or day after with free shipping! A friend of mine who is a nurse and is on her feet all day recommended these shoes to me. I have had one knee replacement and still need to have the second one done as it causes all kinds of pain when I walk. I cannot believe the difference wearing these shoes has made. They cushion every step, help me to stand straighter, and even put a little pep in my step. Merrill clogs, which were previously the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn, are not as comfortable and helpful while walking as these.I wear a wide width shoe. These do not come in wide width, so I ordered the next size up and they fit fine.The only thing I would like to see different has to do with their appearance. If the silver lacers were black, they would not look as much like sneakers. But that's OK; I work in an office and wear these every day with my dress pants. Highly recommended.

These shoes were comfortable right out of the box. I had difficulty getting them locally, and came home and got them from Zappo\'s. With the free shipping and fabulous price, I should have skipped the mall!

Amazing! I am told that I tend to under-pronate or twist my foot as I walk. I have been experiencing all kinds of problems with my back and my feet, from plantar fasciitis to back issues. The way I walk normally (in bare feet or flat shoes), my heels hit the floor quite hard, resulting in pain all the way up my spine. Now, instead of feeling every step as pain in my bones, I feel like my muscles are working for me. I feel like my body is working with me instead of against me like before. I can walk faster and with more stamina, less pain, and an extreme reduction in back problems.

I absolutely love these sneakers. I\'m not crazy about going to the gym and when I saw the commercial about the Shape-Ups I decided to try them. I went to every store looking for these particular Shape-Ups and no one had them. Zappos.com was my last resort and they even sent them to me the very next day. I\'m happy to report these shoes do exactly what they said they would do. From the moment I put them on, my legs muscles were tightened. It feels like you are working out and it helps your upper body by improving your posture as well. I recommend anyone to try these shoes.

These shoe are the best! I work in a school and am on my feet all day. The fit is true to size. I have a total of three pair now. Five others in my building have also purchased the Shape-ups. Zappos wins hands down on shipping, customer service and prices!

I did not like these shoes. My heel kept slipping out, and my feet were leaning inward. The sole does not feel solid. I exchanged them for the MBTs. The soles on the MBTs are much more solid, and are more stable to walk in. Zappos was understanding, and returning the shoes was a snap. I had my MBTs the next day. Best service I have ever experienced!

I love these shoes! I went on a two-week vacation where I walked several miles each day on cobble stone and uneven pavement. Wearing these shoes was like walking on a cloud.

Have not worn these for more than one hour at a time as yet, just getting used to them. These are very comfortable so far. Very nice cushioning. I don't feel the ground under me which is a big change for the better. And these are cute. I am so happy to shop with Zappos.

First off, Zappos is unmatched in ordering and delivery: I received my order the VERY NEXT DAY after ordering it! Like everything else I've ordered from Zappos, the product arrived in perfect condition and I've been thrilled with it. I followed the product suggestion to wear the Shape Ups for a maximum of 45 minutes to begin with, and now I wear them every time I go for any length walk, and never experience any discomfort. On the contrary, I can feel the increased tone in my lower body, and my overall stamina has improved dramatically. I have absolutely no complaints, and am delighted with my purchase.
