Skechers Shape-ups are one of THE hottest shoes on the market.

Used properly, Shape-ups can change the way you approach your daily activities. Used regularly, Shape-ups can enhance the way you feel and look.
3 Reasons Why You NEED Shape-ups
• Stronger You: Shape-ups are designed to help you tone your muscles- from your back and abdomen to you buttocks and calves.
• Healthier You: Shape-ups will help you lose weight and improve your circulation, creating a healthier you.
• Easy Exercise Routine: It’s easy to shape up with Shape-ups. Wear your Shape-ups everywhere and anywhere you walk (or stand), and your body will feel the benefits.
How Shape-ups Work:
The Shape-ups feature a unique soft kinetic wedge insert and dynamic rolling bottom to simulate walking on a soft giving surface like 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.
