My Review 

As a nurse I am on my feet long hours and have been suffering from swollen feet and painful feet, I don't have painful feet anymore when I work. I recommend them all the time to my nursing Colleagues, who complain about the aching feet from work that we suffer from time to time. you just have to get used to wearing them,

Would you recommend this to a friend? 

Yes

Wendy Bumgardner, Walking Guide, says:

I think the extra cushioning in the Skechers Shape-Ups can be beneficial for people who are on their feet all day, such as nurses. People have different experiences with Skechers Shape-Ups.
