Customer Reviews SKECHERS Performance Shape Ups - Optimize

The most comfortable shoes I have ever owned and doing wonders for my joint pains and posture and shape.

Love them! Ordered them on Thursday, got them on Friday and wore them all weekend. Extremely comfortable (buy up 1/2 size); very good if you have a bad back! Planning to buy more in a different style/color. Recommend them 100%.

I purchased a different pair of these earlier this year and I loved them so much I decided to get a winter pair. They did not disappoint. These have got to be the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn and that's saying a lot. If you've never worn this type of shoe before it will feel a little weird at first, but then you will forget you have them on. Regardless of any foot problems (ie ,flat foot, bunions) you can walk all day and not only do it comfortably, but even after taking them home there is no foot pain. I've also noticed that I don't get as tired. These will most definitely not be the last pair I will purchase.

Skechers Shape-Ups are easier to wear and walk in than their ad/DVD would lead you to believe. That said, my leg muscles "thrummed" for several days after wearing my Shape-Ups because they were muscles I haven't been using. I have a really bad left hip/knee due to painful osteoarthritis. I was amazed to find my bad hip/knee gradually complained less and less about being used when I wore Shape Ups, to the extent that I now wear my Shape Ups all day every day, and have gone from walking to/from car/house with a cane, to walking 30-40 minutes (kind of slowly, but still, walking) every day! And I get compliments every week on how cool my Shape Ups look! I highly recommend them and they are well worth the price! Plus Zappos is a fantastic online business; the free shipping both way originally lured me to try Zappos. Now the fast shipping, accurate order filling and line of great products also keep me coming back.

Very good immediate service and reponses. The company gave me free shipping for being a good customer. I purchased 3 pairs of Schechers shape ups and recieved them in a very quick manner with notices at each stage of when they were sent out and when they were shipped.

This is a very comfortable shoe for walking. I used to get pain on my shins whenever I walk but never with these shoes. I think that my legs get a real workout when I walk in these shoes. I got the tan colored pair and it goes well with a lot of my casual clothes. I am usually a size 6, but got a 6.5 and I am very happy with it. I am very happy with Zappos' service as well!

The shoes are what they advertise. The first couple of days you can really feel the burn in your lower legs. They are very comfortable and have been fun so far. Zappos is amazing. Great service, good prices. You can\'t get better. Thanks Zappos.

These Skechers Shape-Ups are awesome. They fit well and are comfortable for my feet. Took a few wears to get used the feel of walking in them, but after that it has been great. I wear them at work for hours on end with no complaints. I feel like I get a workout while at work! As expected, Zappos service was second to none.

I bought the Skechers Shape Ups because of the reviews I read. They are really nice shoes and they definitely change your posture for the better while wearing them. I had worn some old muck boots for a week because we had so much rain and ended up sore in the hips and my lower back felt like it had locked up. The boots went in the trash and I wore my Shape Ups for a day or two and the pain is finally gone. It took me a day or two of pain wearing other shoes before I put the Shape Ups on. If Skechers comes up with a waterproof pair of Shape Ups, I will wear nothing else ever. I work on a farm and waterproof shoes are a real bonus. These shoes are more comfortable then my slippers!

These shoes really work. I've noticed less cellulite on my legs. Something I didn't expect. However, do follow the instructions about starting out with limited wearing. Also, I found that my legs get tired when I wear them for long period of times. A friend mentioned that the shoes are supposed to be like walking on sand and that walking on sand does make your legs tired, so that would explain why my legs get tired. The shoes are good for walking on even surfaces. I don't recommend wearing the shoes on rough terrain; it could result in some serious ankle damage. The shoes also look good. I do wish they would sell the shoes with an option to take the DVD or not (at a lower price). I would like a second pair and don't need a second DVD.

Thanks to all the customers who purchased and reviewed these shoes I ordered a 1/2 size larger than I usually wear and they fit perfectly! Consequently, I did not have to avail myself of Zappos free return shipping. The shoes look good, I have received compliments on them from friends and family. They feel good and I can tell that they are working my leg muscles. Wore them to my chiropractor and he approved of them to help relieve my sciatic pain. When I told my husband that I had ordered a pair of shoes from Zappos he told me that he was going out to the driveway because he was sure UPS was just waiting down the street to bring my shoes. Love the service, Zappos. Many thanks.

Saw information on the Skechers Shape Ups and just had to try them. Looked for them on other sites and they were not available, Zappos.com was the only site that had the color and size that I needed and the customer service is exceptional. The shoe is great...feels like walking on air, you really feel the difference. Great for anyone who has a job with alot of standing or walking (nurses, resturant staff, etc.) They come with a booklet and DVD showing how to use them to exercise while standing or walking. Would recommend this show and Zappos to anyone!

I purchased a pair of Skeechers Shape Ups. I love them! They are so comfortable on my feet and even help my posture and back. They look so neat, they are like a black nubuck.

I love my new Skechers Shape-Ups shoes. I would recommend if you're going back and forth between two sizes to order the smaller size. I had some Skechers that were 9s and some 9 1/2s and went with the 9 1/2 with these shoes and wished I had ordered the 9. So, I just wear two pair of socks, which is okay for the Michigan winters, but not so good for the summer. I would recommend these shoes.

I had heel pain; the first night I got my Skechers exercisers it was instant relief. I wore them to work the next day and I wasn't in pain at the end of the day like the months before. I could actually walk without pain. With my heel pain before I got my shoes, I was almost in tears by the end of the day. On the upside even more, I lost weight. I wear them everywhere I go; I even leave them on when I come home from work. Zappos is a good place. I've looked at shoes from different stores. At Zappos there's no tax or shipping. I plan on in the future to get more shoes from Zappos.

I have been wearing some kind of slide or clog shoe for many years and was skeptical about buying a tennis shoe, especially one like this. When I received these Skechers I was questioning what I was thinking in buying such an odd looking shoe. I put them on and it did feel like I was walking up off the ground. I thought this was kind of cool. So I kept walking around in them and I fell in love with them. I have not worn any other shoe since unless there was a dress up affair. I checked these out online before I bought them and I know there is a more expensive brand out there. My question is, 'if you prefer the more expensive brand, have you tried Skechers?' I think they are great and will be getting the mary jane style next.

I ordered these shoes for myself but they rubbed the top of my toes. I gave them to my daughter and she LOVES them. They have helped tone her legs. She would not do without them!

I love the the Shape Ups. I give them 5 stars and more. True to fit. My only complaint: they need to put out more colors and style of the Shape Ups.

I absolutely love these sneakers! When I received them in the mail, they were so much more than I expected! The (stone) color and quality were fabulous! I received much more than I bargained for. Not to mention, they are so comfortable; kind of like walking on little "pillows" of air! If you're wondering whether there's a difference in walking with Shape Ups vs. regular sneakers, I would say yes, but it's definitely a "positive" because the feel is fantastic and you're getting a workout to boot! Doesn't get much better than that!

I have arthiritis in both my knees and it can be very painful to walk. My niece talked me into trying on a pair of shape-ups. Imagine my surprise when I could walk with no, or very little, impact on my knees! I also wear the shape-ups in the house when I am cleaning or ironing. I will never be without a pair of these shoes!

I was having difficulty find the Skecher "Shape-Up" in my size at local stores. Found them through Zappos ad received my shoes in less than a week. Ordered another pair of shoes for my husband the same day; they came weeks later. Would recommend site to all!

Iam on my feet 9 hours a day before I began to wear the shapeups my feet would ache,now they never hurt. I feel I can wear my shapeups long into the evening. I was really impressed with my shipping also. I recieved them in 2 days.

I was nervous to order from the internet at first, but after I tried Zappos and saw how easy it was, I'm now a customer. The delivery came in a few days. I ordered The Shape-Ups by Skechers. The sneaker is very comfortable. I only used them one time to test them out for a 1/2 hour walk and after taking them off, I did feel a difference in my calf area. I love the style of them and the way they look on my feet. I'm going to buy another pair.

I love my Shape Ups! I had back surgery and have been looking for good workout and walking shoes. These feel like walking on clouds. I wear them for long walks and shopping and my back feels great. They took me about one day of walking around the house to get used to the height of the heel and the feel. Then I was off with no regrets.

Love these shoes! When I first got them I only wore them inside while doing house work, etc. I walk at least two miles every morning and this week I started wearing them (outside); they are so comfortable. I will be getting another pair.
