Customer Reviews SKECHERS Work Slip Resistant Shape Ups

I bought these for work thinking they would help with my knee and heel pain from standing all day in a restaurant job. While it does seem to help with that a bit, these shoes are so heavy, they make my legs tired just wearing them. And no, it's not from the "shaping" motion that they claim...it's hard to lift my feet at the end of the day. It's a shame because they are comfortable and seem good for awhile, but after about 3-4 hours I can barely walk in them.

I like the fit and feel of the shoes. I had a big problem with the shoes squeaking on most of the any floors where I work. I will not buy the work slip resistant style again.

While these shoes don't do any kind of "shaping" as they claim to, they are the most comfortable work shoes I've ever owned, and keep my heels and back from feeling sore after an eight hour shift on my feet.

These shoes are very comfortable and help with back pain. WARNING--- if you have Weak ankle, or tendoitis DO NOT PURCHASE. These shoes will cause undo stain on your tendons due to the unconcious rebalancing that takes place. I thought for a while i was getting better, but I am now in physical therapy and have been told by my PT and Podiatrist NOT to where these shoes. It is a shame becuase I have an almost new pair that I cannot use, and cannot return becuase that have been worn for a few weeks. Otherwise very well made and worth the money if you have the strong ankles to make them work for you!

Not wild about these shoes...Maybe I need more time to get used to them, but they hurt my back after wearing them for even just a few minutes.

I had high hopes for this shoe, at first I got a 9 and it was too small (blackened my toenail). I got a half size up and at first they seemed fine, until I went to work...a seam or something really rubbed on the base of my pinky toe, I thought that maybe the shoe would loosen up, well it didn't and now a month later I have developed a bunion. I also found that I have pain in my hips and feet that seem to come with wearing these shoes. I can't say for sure that my pain is related, but I can say that the bunion is.

I bought this to help my knees not hurt (I have depletion of bone tissue due to aging, 64). They did not help at all and since I wore once and recycled box I could not return.

Do not waste your money! I am a server and spend long, non stop hours on my feet. After reading several reviews I decided to buy these shoes. Terrible decision. The first few days were okay, but then I was in so much pain (and not in the shape up way). By the end of the day I was walking with a limp. After working an 8-10 hour shift in these shoes, I could barely walk when getting out of bed the next morning. Maybe these shoes are fine for short periods of time, but not for servers on their feet all day.

The Shape Up Works are awesome shoes. They are the best shoes that I have ever worn. I have horrible feet and they are the only shoes that give me the comfort that I need.

This is the most comfortable walking/working shoe ever made for people with flat feet. I work 18 hour shifts a lot and my legs and feet never hurt. Only when I wear these shoes. They are unfortunately no longer available in stores. And I have to wear men's because I wear an 11. But the styles were interchangeable for both sexes. I miss my Skechers shape ups every day! No other shoe will ever compare.

Purchased a pair in early March 2014 as I was going to be on my feet 8 to 10 hours a day, I have a bad area in my right foot that makes that horrible. I purchased these because of the thick soles. Now 15 months later they have worn out and I am replacing them. I love these shoes, the ones I currently are wearing look dirty but great no tears or bad places. They are very well made.

I adore these and NEED these for comfortable treadmill walking, but can't find them in WIDE any longer. I don't know what to do. Does anyone know of a similar style in another maker?

So glad I ordered them. I have plantars and this is the only shoe I can wear all day and be comfortable.

Shoes fit perfectly. I couldn't be happier. The person I ordered them from was very helpful. She went the extra mile to help you.

I love these shoes! I thought I'd never find them again. Lucky for me Zappos carried them in my size (11w). They even emailed me when they came back in stock!

I love my Skechers Shape Ups...I have had knee, back and weight problems but with these tennis shoes I can go anywhere.

Thank you very much, I was so happy that I received my order in no time. I am so happy that you guys had shape ups for sale. Once again thank you!

I have had knee surgery 4 times and heel spurs as well on the same left knee and when I stepped into the Skechers shoes with the thick sole and I have never taken them off. I do not want the Skechers company to ever stop making these shoes. They are wonderfully comfy, please make them forever.

Great shoe, I have a fallen arch so this shoe comforts it. Just wish I could have gotten it in black, had to color with a marker to make black.

I am a power walker, am overweight with a high arch. This is a fantastic shoe. I can only buy online though. Unlike the lawsuit I have lost 130 pounds because walking was comfortable and made me go further. I had to buy locally as I needed a walking shoe and Easy Spirit is giving me lower back pain and my knee is popping and I am in pain. So back to Skechers and buying online. Please do not get rid of this line. The high arch support is the best!

I love my Skechers. The person that took my order was very knowledgeable, helpful, a wonderful person to take your order. I'm glad she was the one taking my order.

I love this shoe. I've tried other rockers and they titled my foot back causing knee trouble. This shoe tilts me forward. I have trouble with my ankles and have had multiple surgeries. This is the only shoe I've found where I don't have ankle pain. The Naot Sea shoes are also good, but this is better for me. And it comes in wide and can fit my orthotics.

I have worn Shape-Ups for a few years. I didn't know what a great shoe they were until my employer bought us all slip resistant shoes of another brand. My feet, knees, hips and lower back were in so much pain after a long shift on my feet. This year they are giving a voucher to purchase the shoes we chose. I will never have any other work shoe other than the Shape-Up. I can't wait to the get my new pair and throw those other back breaker shoes in trash! Thanks Zappos.

These shoes are awesome! I feel like I'm losing weight while I sit in my chair all day. The only thing that is annoying is that my wife makes me take my pants off immediately when she sees me wearing them. These shoes scream "Hello ladies!"
