 Relieved Foot Pain from plantar fasciitis September 1, 2010
E. Kalinowski (Portland, OR)
I bought these shoes because of other reviews that talked about relief from plantar fasciitis, also known as a stress fracture. I work retail and was having to modify my schedule to 4 hour shifts because the pain was so great. These shoes make you stand differently on your feet, eliminating the pain! I was able to walk around all day. I immediately felt my posture improve, my ankles straighten up, and pressure relieved. I love the feeling you get, as they described it's like walking on soft sand. It is such a relief that there is a shoe out there that relieves pain and lets you walk longer again!
Able to Walk Again! August 2, 2010
Debra D. Grove (Nashville, TN)
I am a CRNA and stand 10+ hours a day in my job. I had been wearing Dansko and Sanita clogs until recently when I developed severe lateral (outside) foot pain. My orthopedic surgeon is the one who actually recommended purchasing the Skechers with the "rocker bottom" to CORRECT my over-pronation (I have relatively flat arches). I also have degenerative disc disease in my entire spine. Wearing the Skechers Shape Ups has definitely improved my posture and completely eliminated my foot pain. When I first started wearing them, I did only wear them for a few hours at a time as recommended by both the manufacturer and my doctor since the rocker motion is a completely different way of walking. I was also careful to make sure the fit was proper so I didn't put more stress on my feet (when I first tried them on, it felt like I needed a larger size, but after trying the larger size, I realized that my toes were where they should be in the first ones I tried on. They run pretty true to size.) There is a little package insert and DVD telling you how to walk in them... I highly recommend reading it first! I bought a pair for work and one for fitness walking. Since purchasing them, I have noticed more and more of my surgical colleagues also wearing only the Skecher Shape Ups. I can't imagine ever wearing another shoe for work or walking!
 Causes foot pronation July 7, 2010

I was so excited to get these. They're absolutely gorgeous. For years I had worn MBTs sport and while I loved them, I hated the color (I know, I'm a girl, what can I say).
The Skechers are beautiful - I got mine in black and white. As I wore mine, I did notice that my feet tended to pronate (Pronation describes a slight inward rolling motion the foot makes during a normal walking or running stride). This I did not like. At first I thought I walk this way, but looking at the bottom of all my shoes, they're worn on the outside of my heel, not inside. After a few more tries with the Skechers, I realized it's the shoe. As I step, it makes me roll my feet.
I looked at others wearing the Shape Ups and they too step inward. All these people can't possibly walk badly, so I came to the conclusion that it's the shoe that's causing the pronation. Too bad!!!
I went back to my MBTs and I walk perfectly straight in them. I'm sorry to say these did not work out for me. I will be selling them.
Deff. worth the price March 29, 2010

My bf and I first tried this style of shoe at a local KMart. The shoe there was really curved and the sole was so-so. It still for some reason made me curious to try some other brands esp. knowing that usually these shoes sell for a whole more then the $19.99 price tags that were on these. The next day I went to Khols and actauly surprised to see them there. Tried them on and instantly fell in love with them. They still had the rocking motion of coarse but unlike the ones at KMart I did not feel like I was going to fall over. Plus, they were so much more cushiony. I work in a clothing retail store on my feet on a super hard marble floor for 8-10 hours a day so when I get out I need something comfortable. These deffinatly did the trick. I then proceeded to just see what other brands had to offer after trying Avia, 2 other brands I cant remember and even Dr. Scholls, I came right back to these. Now, I cant wait till the Mary Janes actaully come out in stores so I can try those and not kill my feet at work. Over all, there was deff. worth the $80 price differance. None of the other brands even came close.
