The design technology behind Shape Ups changes the way you walk.
As we move through our lives, we typically walk on hard surfaces, which places stress on our knee joints and lower back. People who are required to stand for their jobs feel the impact on their bodies the most, and don’t gain the benefits that come with all that activity.
The goal with Shape Ups was to simulate walking on soft ground. SKECHERS has turned hard surfaces into comfortable ground through revolutionary technology designed into the framework of the shoe. The core of this technology is in the dynamic rolling bottom, the soft foam insert under the heel, and the dual-density midsole. These three elements work together to give you the feeling of walking on sand or luxurious pile carpet--regardless of the actual surface. Walking on softer, uneven surfaces forces you to engage muscles not normally used when walking on hard ground. Not only does this strengthen your muscles, but it also increases blood flow and reduces the impact on your joints and lower back.
Designed to improve your life by changing the way you walk, Shape Ups feature a unique soft kinetic wedge insert and dynamic rolling bottom to simulate walking barefoot on a giving surface that gives such as sand. With the comfort of Shape Ups, you will feel your heel sink to the ground as you step, roll forward as your weight shifts to its center, and push off with your toes. This movement will result in stronger leg, buttock, back and abdominal muscles as you stabilize your steps.
Barefoot walking simulation on soft ground
- The heel sinks comfortably into the soft ground as you step
- You naturally roll forward as your weight shifts to the center and your balance is centered
- Easily push off with your toe pads
Due to this unconventional manner of walking, we suggest you moderate your walking routine in Shape Ups for the first week or two (25 to 45 minutes per day), depending on your level of fitness. As you continue to wear your Shape Ups, your body will adjust to this new method of walking. You will find it easy and comfortable while still enjoying the strengthening and cardiovascular benefits.
Get in the Routine
1. Kick Back: Stand upright and place feet parallel and hip distance apart, balance centered. Roll your weight onto the back of the soft foam heel – hold for a count of five and then back to the center. Do not lock knees or tip backward. Stretches calf and hamstrings. Repeat 5 to 10 times.
2. Rock and Roll: Stand upright and place feet parallel and hip distance apart, balance centered. Roll your weight forward so you are balancing on the underside of your toes – hold for a count of two, then slowly rock back to the soft heel – hold for a count of two, and then back to your center of balance. Do not lock knees or tip backward. Stretches calf and hamstrings, warms up Achilles and ankles. Repeat 5 to 10 times.
3. Roll and Rock and Roll: Follow the Rock and Roll stretch, but alternate feet so one is rolling to the toes and one is rocking back. Repeat 5 to 6 times.
4. The Lean: Place your hands on a wall, parallel and slightly above your head. With one leg in front of the other and your arms forward, press with your palms as if you were leaning on the wall. Keep your back leg straight and your front foot on the floor, then bend the front leg and lean forward by moving your hips toward the wall. Hold for a count of five, then repeat on the other side. Stretches calf and Achilles. Repeat 5 to 6 times.

great for walking all day
I do feel the toning. Most important thing is my feet doesn't aches anymore from walking all day.
Love these shoes
I am a waitress and finding these shoes has been wonderful. At first when I wore them, they were a bit uncomfortable wearing for a long period of time. But you definitely get used to them. I've had them about a month now and I love them. I've worn an old pair of more expensive shoes that were supposed to be "good" for arch support and your feet and these surpass those in comfort by a long shot! Have let friends know how much I love these shoes and at the very least give them a try. If you don't love them yourself, you can always send em back but I highly doubt you will :)
Love these shoes!!!!!
Did my homework and researched, No more backache, no knee problems. Recommend to everyone that is on their feet alot. Ordered black for work and pink and grey for outdoors.....Love'em
good walking shoe
I took other reviewers advice and ordered these a 1/2 size larger than normal; I'm on the large side of size 8 anyways and 8 1/2 fit perfect.
They are very comfortable (I have plantar fasciitis and pretty flat feet) and cushion my feet on long walks. They're no miracle weight loss tool, but I have noticed the muscles on the back of my legs feeling tighter after walking in them.
I'll probably buy another pair in a different style.

Great shoes!
I love my shape-ups. I was worried they would be a little small because I heard they ran small but they are fine. Walking in them all day at work took a little getting used to but the are great!
KitKat
I rarely have time to exercise. Between my two young children and work, it is difficult to find the time. I decided to purchase these shoes after hearing how wonderful they are. I wore them one time and I could feel the muscles in my legs working.
Not like, Love.
I am verrryy fussy about shoes: how they fit, support, comfort, etc. The new Skechers Shape Ups are fantastic. I don't need to wear my orthotics for added arch support, and they are comfortable and energizing. Felt a wee bit tight on first and second wear, but they now fit like a glove, true to my size nine foot. They look a bit odd at first, as they are high and make your foot appear shorter, so a bit boxy, but the absolute pleasure of walking in them makes me put them on even when I'm just goofing around the house. Very successful and energetic power walks in my new Shape Ups (very soon after purchase) have further excited me about my one and only Christmas gift to myself. Can't say enough good things about these shoes!
They really work
It's is a very comfortable sneaker once you get the hang of walking in them. I could see a difference in my legs, butt and abdomen at the end of 1 week. Great way to get some exercise in without even thinking about it.
Love at first step
I have a bum knee, from knee surgery, 15 years ago.I wear them 7-8 hours a day at work, where I'm on my feet(I work in a restaurant) These shoes have given me back the most pain free mobility I ever had since the surgery. I LOVE THEM. Everything they claim , is true. Buying another pair for the summer:)
Awesome shoe
I purchased this shoe for the shape up feature and after wearing them...they are the most comfortable shoes I own. I work in a restaurant part time and these shoe are like walking on a cloud.
optimiize fitness
These shoes are absolutely wonderful, the shoes are comfortable and keep feet warm although it is winter, I wear these shoes to work from 8:00 am until I go to bed at night at 11:00 pm and my feet never felt better.
MY TAN SHAPE UP
IT TOOK ME A SHORT TIME TO ADJUST TO THE ROCKING AND BOUNCE OF THE SHOES. I REALLY ENJOY THEM.
comfortable and cute
I purchased these for walking, which I do 4 times a week for exercise. They were extremely comfortable the first time I put them on. I love the fact that they add to my workout and make me stand taller. But mostly, I love them because they are so cute on!
Finally, some comfort
I have recently taken up walking. This shoe is wonderful. Takes a little bit use to getting use to--but feels so good on the foot. I never wear tennis shoes shopping or anything, but I did for Black Friday and my feet felt great at the end of 12 hours. I like Skechers because they are wide.Pretty true to size. A Friend told me about them, I am glad I tried them.
Skechers Shape Ups
This is the best feeling shoe I have ever worn.I just wish they didn't make me feel so tall.. Jo from Alabama
Rockin' & Rollin'
I wear these for work - 12 hour shifts. At first my buns and calves were burning - now (after three shifts) I'm great. My knees don't hurt the way they used to and I'm walking down long halls with some pep!
They add a couple of inches to your height, something to get used to! But it's an advantage for me :) You'll quickly learn 'how badly' you were walking before (I apparently walked on the balls of my feet!), and now it's a smooth heel-to-toe action. The shoes came with a video, but I haven't watched it yet. I know six other people with these shoes, and they ALL like/love them! And with free returns, you really can't lose!

great for hospital workers
This is a great shoe if you work in a hospital and do a lot of walking. Matter of fact, I am getting another pair for Christmas

Shape Ups are awesome
It takes a little time to get used to walking and balancing in them, but that's all part of the fun. You can walk for miles and never feel discomfort from pounding the pavement because there is so much foam between your foot and the floor. Design, function and quality all in one little shoe. Bravo Skechers! I love them so much I purchased a second pair!
It does what it says
Well I don't have a new body but I didn't really expect to. I do however feel the shoe doing some good work. Not too much and not too little. If it were too much I probably wouldn't put them back on, but I can feel some muscles I didn't before. I would recomend these shoes.
Won't wear anything else!!
I own two pairs and bought two pairs for my mother who suffers from a very bad back - we both love these shoes. They are very comfortable, feels like you're walking on little clouds and they really do work your leg muscles. I wear them around the house and also when I walk my dogs or do the grocery shopping. They are also great for standing for prolonged periods of time as your legs don't seem to get tired as quickly and your back stays relaxed. Love them!!!
Great Shoe
These shoes are very comfortable, they feel a bit strange when you first put them on but you get used to them pretty quickly. They look like any other tennis shoe while your wearing them. My only complaint is that they are NOT true to size. I bought 1/2 size bigger than usual on the advice of a coworker and they are STILL too small. Your foot rocks forward and back while walking, if you don't have enough room you will have sore toes pretty quickly. Arch support is good after you get used to them, they don't allow you to stand flat footed so at first your foot my tilt in. Over all a great shoe.
Got to love shape ups
These shoes are great. They are comfortable and can be worn for long periods at a time. I've gotten compliments on them. I recommend them 100%. I feel they fit true to size.
Like walking on a very supportive cloud.
These shoes are wonderful for walking. Very comfortable. When I wear these at work all day I am not too tired to take the dog for a walk when I get home! When you walk fast you will feel the burn in the back of your calves. Great great shoe.
ALL HAIRDRESSERS/WAITRESSES/NURSES ETC...
I AM A HAIRDRESSER W/OUT ANTI-FATIGUE MATS TO STAND ON. MY FEET,BACK AND HIPS HAVE NEVER FELT SO GOOD. I RECOMMEND ANYONE WHO IS ON THEIR FEET FOR HOURS AT A TIME INVEST IN A PAIR OF SHAPE UPS. YOUR COMFORT LEVEL, AND STAMINA WILL GREATLY IMPROVE!!!
Very comfortable!
I love these shoes. I walk 4 miles a day and these are comfortable throughout. What surprised me was how much I felt the muscles in my stomach working!
It is too soon to know if they will make an overall difference in my muscle tone, but so far, so good.
