Sketchers Shapeups Shoes, Sandals, and Slip-ons
Tone Up with Sketchers Shape-Ups Shoe
When these shoes first came out, I didn't believe that they actually worked, but I'm not a huge promoter of the tone up shoes. They're simple, stylish, and work the money that Sketchers charges. You couldn't ask for a better shoe that offers support for your feet, legs, and back, while improving your circulation, weight, joint strain, posture, and muscle tone.
At first, I thought the shoe's heel looked crazy and silly. I was never wearing those shoes, and no one was going to ever find me with a pair.
Times change. Feelings change. I love them!
The Sketchers Shape-Ups now come in a ton of different styles. If you don't like to lace up your shoes, find a pair of slip-ons. If you don't want to wear tennis shoes, find a pair of sandals. Sketchers has really found a way to create a great shoe that is stylish and accessorizable.
For me, when it comes to a shoe, I want a little style and a lot of comfort. When I tried on a pair of the Sketchers Shape Ups flip flops, I was in love. They cupped my feet perfectly and were an ideal fit for my foot. I was worried about my knees, as I have knee problems and never wear anything but flats, but while walking on the shoes, even the flip flops, I definitely feel a difference.
If you are looking for a protective shoe, you want to try these. I know many people who have tried them because of one reason or another, and you can't take them off their feet. One example, is a lady who has had knee surgery; she was left with constant pain while walking, which started causing shortness of breath because she was staggering while walking and walking slightly hunched over. After putting on the shoes and walking around the house, she hasn't taken them off since (well except for church). She no longer experiences shortness of breath while walking, and her knee pain has reduced because there is less strain on her knees while walking.
If you feel like you've tried everything else and nothing has worked. Try these shoes!
Below, you'll find out how they work and what all they're designed to improve (muscle tone, cellulite, weight, etc.).

These shoes and sandals are made for men and women because Sketchers knows that both genders can be equally as hard on their feet. These shoes are geared to help you withstand being on your feet for long periods of time, making them ideal for warehouse, sales, and production work.
The goal of the design is to help keep your feet and body comfortable while walking. The shoes contain a rolling bottom, soft foam insert underneath the heal, and a dual-sensitivity midsole, that work together to provide the feeling that your constantly walking on something soft versus a hard, concrete ground or whatever type of surface you're walking on.
How do Sketchers Tone Ups Work?
Believe it or not, but you won't know or truly understand until you try it.
These shoes are designed to change the way you walk. Your heel will sink to the ground as you step, roll as your weight shifts to the center, and then push off with your toes. This repetitive movement is all that is needed to muscle strength in your legs, butt, back, and abdominal muscles.
The kinetic wedge that is in the shoe stimulates the rolling sensation that you experience while walking in these shoes. The wedge is designed to stimulate walking barefoot on a giving surface, such as sand.
And, if you've walked on sand, you know that you can feel your muscles with every step. These shoes will definitely help tone your legs and butt as you walk around the mall, parking lot, school campus, at work, or where ever.
You won't be able to feel every bump in the road as though you were wearing regular tennis shoes or sandals, which reduces the strain and impact that your joints feel while walking on hard surfaces.
How are Shape Ups Made?
The Toneup shoes are made with many layers of padding and insoles that correct your walking patterns and overall balance. The shoes are made with 5 protective layers.
- Upper: well padded upper layer is made of leather and breathable mesh for support and comfort
- Sockliner: EVA insole designed for foot protection
- Midsole: polyurethane frame designed for support and stabilization
