shoes...ladies please

Has anyone here tried a pair of those walker / toner shoes?

I tried a pair of the Sketchers, but the bottoms cause your foot to roll off to the side and with my equilibrium problems I was a mess.  Supposedly Nike has some better ones but I haven't given them a shot yet...

That is what happens when you put the left shoe on the right foot and the right shoe on the left foot.

I read quite a few reviews and most people love them. Especially if they had high arches or bunions. I am going to try a few on.

I was going to buy a pair of those Skechers Shape Ups and my friend got a pair and she said she felt off balance all the time she was wearing them.  They run around $100.00 so I thought I might as well stick to my Merrells they are so comfortable and I feel like I am walking on air on them.  Sometimes I can pick them up on e-bay for under $100 and there are a lot of online sites you can get them on too.

I heard a report on TV and they said they did  not do what they claimed to do for your butt and legs.........

gave mine to daughter.  They caused my shins to hurt and you can't do anything sideways, so not good to exercise in anyway, just walking.

They suppose to tone your muscles not remove 100 pounds of fat nanna.

I bought a pair a few weeks ago that are not so high or thick soled. I actually got them because I wanted just a little more height since I am slightly challenged in that dept.   :-s  That night my butt felt it but not enough to get much out of it since I am a regular walker. My sister loves hers. I am only going to get them for walking, no other exercise . I'm up to an hour and half now and want more challenge. I plan to get a pair and will let you know my opinion. Most of the reviews that people wrote love them.

emily...I saw them online, but I have to try them on, especially shoes like that.

I have bunions...I disagree that they are comfortable on them...
 
 NO shoes are comfortable with bunions...NONE !  I have had bunions since I was 13...surgery has done little to prevent a reoccurance and I can't afford to take the extended time off to have the other foot done, which is nearly as bad as the first, since I would have to have a complete osteotomy again (realignment by shortening the bones and muscles) and that takes a lot of recovery time...

Mud, I suppose you did not hear the ads when they played on the TV.....Nothing was said about removing "fat".......they were suppose to TONE the butt and legs.....THAT is what the report said they did not do.......I hope that made it more clear to you, hon.........
