I want. By The MizFit.

by

I so totally, entirely, and wholly want these.

What’s NOT to love about a shoe described like this:

The motion when walking is similar to that of balancing on a BOSU board in combination with using a Stairmaster.

Alas, I hath no expectations or hope that they’ll work (Hello Shape Up Shoes peeps? Please to send me a pair & Ill be yer tester MizFit) but can you even imagine me wobbling around town in them whilst holding the Tornado?

Comedy Gold.

(Oh, and Id love the purple. size six please)

  1. Sounds like those shoes with the negative heels – supposed to make it like you’re always walking up an incline and thus get a “workout” every time you leave the house.

    Only now you can look unsteady on your feet!

  3. Surely those shoes are part of a much bigger kit, which must include:
    –a helmet to protect your head from injury each time you fall
    –elbow and knee protectors, for the same reason
    –a first aid kit to patch up any unprotected body parts

  4. Gena? Im 100 percent sure youre right about my looking HORRIBLE unsteady…esp after my BOSU attempt 🙂

    ashley? from a MizFit who hearts the look of BIRKENSTOCKS (I know…) I kinda like the wacky way they appear.

    and Jim? good suggestions all.

    I would SO love to be their tester MizFit.

    we shall see———-

  5. I had the same thoughts as Jim! Wear the full Rollerblade protective equipment! Just add a full coverage motorcycle helmet and, oh yeah, full health insurance coverage also. I think this stuff is inverted by our friendly orthopedic surgeon!

  7. The Bag Lady loves the lavender look. She also almost fell off her chair laughing at the thought of wearing those out in the pasture, where every step you take is sorta like that anyway, what will all the deep holes the cows feet have left in the mud…perhaps the Shape Up shoes would help even things out….or not.

  9. No F’reakin Way! I have to say those are the silliest things i’ve seen in a long time!

  12. omigod, I would definitely break my neck wearing these! (I love the disclaimer…don’t wear on unstable surfaces?!)
    How do you find these things?! 🙂

  13. I hate to single people out–but Michelle? I LOVE YOU.

    yes.

    they are Jimmy shoes.

    they wont improve my vertical leap but they will prevent my arse from it’s vertical drop toward my heels.

  15. why do these remind me of a cross betweeb Britney Spears and those shoes that ancient men used to hobble baby girls in China? Please do not wear there. Your butt looks great.

  16. WG,

    I heart my glutes yet can not resist the Amy Poehler-esque opportunity of testing these out for a Facetime (and if my poor sense of balance improves as a side benefit? ILL TAKE IT and give em props)

    but yes.

    it’s more about channeling the Poehler.

    🙂

  19. I’d like to try wearing those while walking in a mall or something… MizFit, you sure find the items that would receive the most ridiculous reactions from others!

  21. i have been coveting these in the back of my celebtrash mags for months now. (i feel i need to clarify that i did not order these mags but they magically come to my house and i read them from cover to cover for some sick, twisted reason!). i’m so glad i’m not the only one that is curious about these uglycool sandals! wish i could figure out a way to justify the $40. i do need a new pair of flip flops for the summer…..hmmmm

  22. Sagan, I think *thats* precisely why I wanna do a facetime. they are so ludicrous that I must see how they purport to work.

    and jen? AHHH YOU A WOMAN AFTER THE MIZFIT’S HEART.

    I actually like the silly odd look of em as well—screw the bosustairmaster bene 😉

    M.

  25. I think if I was wearing these, people wouldn’t notice if my butt looked good or not….maybe thats the idea.

  26. Okay, I have to admit this. My mother and her work-out pal own some of those shoes. Mind you, she just wears them around her house, but she says they have worked to some extent. I nearly shit myself with laughter the first time I saw her wearing them.

  27. Oh Amanda, IM BEGGING YOU.
    What are the chances your mom would write a review for us?
    (seeing as it doesnt appear the MizFit is gonna get a free pair to review any time soon. go figure. :))

    if she is anywhere NEAR as funny as you are we’d all be doing what you nearly did in laughter.

    M.

  28. I have them!

    I’ve worn them for about an hour today, and can already feel the burning! If you stand on the balls of your feet for about a minute, you can sort of feel where it works- mostly the backs of your thighs and calves.

    It’s one of those things that subtly hurts when you use them, so you know you’ll really feel it the next day.

    I’ll keep you posted as I wear them!
