great shoes
Purchased the shoes for use in Afghanistan they got here quickly and were exactly what I needed for working out in the gym.

So cute and comfy!
Right off the bat I will tell you- you read everywhere about how these shoes run a half-size small? Not in this style. They are very true-to-size. I have a few pairs of Shape Ups and I love them- this pair is no exception. They have a zipper so you don't have to mess with lacing them all the time and I have worn them comfortably all over Disneyland. They easily came off for an airport screening and were back on my feet with a minimum of fuss. The only thing I am not thrilled about is the small Velcro strip used as a closure above the zipper- it makes the top buckle a bit. But I can tell it was a must for the necessary versatility to fit a wider range of sizes. These are very cute and comfy- I have gotten compliments every time I have worn them. All in all I am very happy with my purchase!

Love these shoes
I love the workout I get with these shoes. They are not as another reviewer posted regular sneakers. They have the rounded sole and in order to get the most from your workout you must watch the DVD that comes with the shoes which explains how to step in order to maximize your workout. It's a rolling motion from heel to toe and if you follow the directions you will notice a huge difference in your workout. Powerwalking takes on whole new meaning in these shoes!

Love "Em!!
All I can say is that I loved these sandals (don't know why this particular pair is called a 'sneaker'). They are comfortable cushiony and just plain great. I am grateful that I decided to wait before purchasing an expensive pair of MBT because I trust Skechers and am completely sold on their Shape Up series. My heel spurs are basically healed and I do not experience the pain I did in the past. Hope they come out with even more styles.

Hard to find good full-fingered glove
I've been looking for a glove to not only protect my skin and improve my grip on metal bars but because I usually work out in a public fitness center to keep viri and bacteria off my hands and on gloves that I can throw in the wash. These gloves are very comfortable fit snugly over the entire hand have velcro closures that make it easy to put them on and take them off and use material in the palm that has a little "tack" which provides a good grip on handles/bars. Their only downside is that they're a bit expensive and because the palm material does grip handles/bars so well the palms have a tendency to break down and rip over time.
