I've read sooooo many reviews on them and the consensus is that the cushyness factor is nice and minimal toning benefits. And, of course, you have to MOVE to burn any calories so unless you're doing that, not worth the extra $.
A good pair of walking or running sneaks will cost you the same $ and I think are safer ergonomically. I just have a sneeking suspicion that in coming years people that wore these shape ups will be experiencing foot/knee/hip probs.
Just my 2 cents as someone who is physically active/a runner (although running is mostly on the back burner these days--been crunched for time)
