Shape-Up Flip Flops and Other Weight Loss Summer Shoes

I will admit that I've never put on a pair of Shape-ups, the Skechers brand sneakers that boast to help you tone your legs and buttocks with every single step because of the unique rounded-bottom shape of the shoe.

But, I will, someday, at least put them on to take a walk around the store and see what they feel like.

Lately, I've been hearing rumors about the new Shape-up style flip flops that are growing in popularity this summer and thought I should check them out (and share them with you).

Personally, I think these shoes are absolutely hideous, but if they truly do what they say they do, then maybe they're worth it?

Do any of you have the Shape-ups sneakers and are planning on buying the flip flops? What do you like about them and what do you not like about them?
