I bought a pair of Shape Ups because I read they were similar to MBT shoes, a brand that was originally conceived as orthopedic shoes. Since I have flat feet, shoes with good support are important for me.

I've used the Shape Ups for approximately a month. At the beginning it was a bit hard to balance myself but after that I found them really comfortable. I wouldn't use them to run or exercise, though. At this point I was already happy with the shoes, but later I pleasantly discovered that the muscles of my legs and glutes are toning nicely.

I think I'll buy more pairs of these shoes in the future.

Ah! I'd tried these shoes at the store first, so I ordered half a size larger and the toes are a bit tight anyway. Maybe an entire size larger would have been better.
