Review by D. Oliver for Skechers Women's Shape Up-Strength Fitness Walking Shoe,Black/White,6 M US Rating: Exercise while you walk around, no sweat, no lifting weights, no additional equipment, just you and your shoes. Would suggest you get 1/2 size bigger just so you will have a little extra toe room. They are comfy and I do believe they make you stand taller, straigher and that your posture improves. Worth a try.

Review by Mary K. Mc Cullick for Skechers Women's Shape Up-Strength Fitness Walking Shoe,Black/White,6 M US Rating: Since I purchased these shoes, I have worn them every day. I work on my feet all day and this is the first pair of shoes I have found that my feet don't hurt at the end of the day. As a matter of fact, I normally take my shoes off first thing when I get home but, since getting these, I don't take them off until I am ready for bed.
LOVE THEM!!! I plan on buying several more pairs in different styles as the seasons require.

Review by Franny for Skechers Women's Shape Up-Strength Fitness Walking Shoe,Black/White,6 M US Rating: I heard the hype about this shoe- that it's suppose to work you out while you walk, and I didn't really pay any attention to it. However, while I was at work, I saw a customer had them on, and asked her how she liked them; she said that after a full day of wearing them, she felt like her calves had been worked out and she also mentioned that the original reason she bought them was actually because they were really, really comfortable. Well, the comfortable part is what peaked my interest, so I decided to try on a pair for myself; when I first tried them on, they felt kind of weird to walk in- they are a bit of a platform shoe, and the heel is quite...squishy feeling. Walking around the store for a few minutes, I had to agree that they were really comfortable! However, I decided to hold off on them because of the price. Well, about two weeks later I my regular shoes had really done a number on my feet at work, and I decided to bite the bullet and get the sketchers (I got the black and white ones, I think they're the most popular). Well, the shoes themselves actually come with a dvd! It goes over how to walk in them (kind of a repetitive section), and it also has a workout segment as well. So, the dvd tells you to wear the shoes for short amount of periods to get use to them (like becoming accustomed to a new work out routine), but I ignored it and wore them all day at work. Well, my feet didn't ache at the end of the day, and man! my [...] felt like it was worked out! After wearing them a while now, I don't really feel the burn in my booty like that first day, but I really love these shoes, even if they do look a bit clunky. On the bright side though, they do make me taller, and being pretty short, I greatly like that aspect of them.

Expensive? Yes, but surprisingly, they are worth the money. If you're thinking about getting this shoe, go to a Sketcher's store to try on a pair and work around in them for at least five minutes because they can feel pretty odd in the beginning.

One last note-I found their sizes run a bit small; normally my feet are a size 5.5 to 6, but the pair that fit me best were the size 7's. So once again, definitely try them on in a store first, and then if you wish purchase them online.

Review by C. Mattioli for Skechers Women's Shape Up-Strength Fitness Walking Shoe,Black/White,6 M US Rating: Shoes are best shoes I have owned. With a mix of comfort and style. Worn them everyday for the last month,I noticed a big difference in my legs and butt. They are now very firm and tone.
