My SIL has the Reebok version, I'll have to ask her how she likes them. I have a friend who has a different version and she loves them.

I love my Shape-Ups, but mostly for the same reasons as you. I love wearing them when it rains too because my pants don't get wet. I have noticed if I walk up hills in them it's really hard, but that's about it. I have been starting to see men wearing them within the last few weeks actually LOL

I tried a cheaper version (LA Gear) and like them too. I can't say that I've noticed a difference in the shape of my body etc although I did notice the back of my thighs ached a little after the first time I wore them.

Does anybody remember Earth Shoes? They were trendy for awhile in the 70s. The heel was lower than the footbed, which was supposed to simulate walking in sand. They would tone your legs, strengthen your back and stretch your Achilles tendon. I haven't tried the new rocker-soled shoes yet, but they seem to be making the same claims as Earth Shoes. (Btw... I think Curves had them long before

I've been tempted by the flip-flop version but skeptical of them doing anything for my butt or calves. Good to know the truth - comfy, but no fabulous butt.

I love mine! I have noticed a huge difference in my posture and in the muscle tone of my calves (though I am not sure if the latter is because of the shoes or because I am on a mission to actually get muscle definition in my calves and am doing calf raises like they are going out of style.)

I wear mine a lot when I am standing in the kitchen cooking or folding laundry and have worn

Love the "ten toes up"! :)

I didn't realize how comfortable they were.

And yes, if they get people into a mindset that encourages activity, that's always a good thing.

You're probably right about them not serving you well if you're dealing with balance and stability issues.

On the bright side, you now have $100 unspent!

I've wondered if those work. Did your legs feel sore the first time wearing them?

Not a good option for me however, as I have balance and stability issues already.

I've been seeing more and more people wearing Shape Ups and I'm curious to try on a pair to see how they fit.

Thanks for the great review...and a $10 off coupon.

Walk On...for sure!
