See Manhattan On Your Feet: Women's Work: Skechers Shape-Ups Slip Resistant - Motivator Recommended by Whom You Know

Brrr Manhattan!  It is getting cold out there!  But we are not deterred.  We are still determined to get every single person here in shape and we have found another winner from Skechers.  This style - The Motivator - is going to help us motivate you.  Casual yet stylish, it has a velcro strap that is totally secure and stays in place as you circumvent Manhattan every which way.  It is much easier on and off when you're wearing a cocktail dress (like Peachy!) and need to make a quick change.  And you know we love Skechers Shape Up Technology...we are totally into killing two birds with one stone efficiently too: if you have to go from A to B anyway why not just walk there quickly and wear the right shoes that get you in the shape you want to be in?!  The Leather upper in a slip resistant mary jane work sneaker is a winner year-round and we recommend it!  Here are the stats:

  • Stitching detail
  • Hook and Loop strap front
  • Padded collar and tongue
  • Fabric shoe lining
  • Cushioned insole
  • Firm polyurethane frame supports and stabilizes the foot
  • Kinetic Wedge super soft foam midsole designed to absorb shock and provide exercising effect
  • 1 1/2 inch midsole height at center
  • OSHA compliant slip resistant rubber outsole 
  • Electrical Hazard (EH) safe design rated ASTM 2413-05
  • Sole rated ASTM F 1677-96 Mark II
  • Comes with a detailed exercise guide
  • Costs less than comparable exercise footwear
  • Weight: 14 to 17oz. per shoe
