Will Skechers Shape-ups Walk the Talk?
Ever since their debut last summer, Skechers Shape-ups have been a hot topic of discussion. These kicks claim to be real fitness shoes with real health benefits, and not just another fashionable (debatable), fitness fad in the form of footwear! The fitness factor supposedly comes into play where the soles are concerned. According to the Skechers website, Shape-ups feature “a soft kinetic wedge insert and dynamic rolling bottom to simulate walking on soft sand.” The repeated heel-sinking and rolling motion of your foot with each step should then result in greater tone in your back, abs, backside and calves; increased circulation; and more weightloss over time.
