Does anyone have any input about these shoes that were advertised on page 33 of the last issue of the magazine? I am a waitress and gardener and mom, and I walk, hike, kickbox, Zumba, do dishes by hand, etc... In other words, I am almost always on my feet. I am very frugal and don't enjoy spending money. But I have had some foot and knee issues, so I am intrigued by this ad. Before I even try out the guarantee, I'd like to hear from any farmgirls or guys about what you think. Thanks y'all,
Peace, Love, and Joy |

I am a dental assitant and am on my feet all day. I also like to walk and hike. I bought the the Sketcher Shape-ups. WOW what a differnece. It took a bout a week to get used to them, but I no longer have back aches or leg pains from work.
I bought the Sketcher for work, but i did buy the Walmart brand of 'rocker' shoes for play and they work just as well. They just don't hold up as long.
I even convinced my husband into trying them for when we go walking together and he could not believe the difference.
Good Luck Arttie |

Thanks for your input! Anyone for the Gravity Defyiers? I remember MJ saying after going with this publisher, that she would approve of the content of any advertisements. Wonder if she, or anyone from The Farm has tried them, and that lead to the placement of the ad??

I also bought the Danskin wanna be sketchers from Walmart on clearance for 15$. Luv them! Found that alot of the foot and back pain disappeared as well.

Thanks Gals, Today I bought the Danskin rockers for $20, and ordered the Gravity Defyers, yesterday. Can't wait to see how they all feel while I work and cook and do dishes and excercise. Lots of money, but my podiatrist recommended the rockers, and though he did not know much about the Gravitys, he said he thought they would be very helpful. And he said it would be fine if I went back and forth between them. I will keep you posted on how they are, so if they are awesome, you can try them with confidence.
Peace, Love, and Joy |

Thanks for asking about these Pamela. I was wondering if they really work too.

Well, I got them. In order to get the money back guarantee, they must be worn inside only. Since I am a waitress, I figure I can't wear them to work, since that is worse than wearing them outside. So I can only try them on a very limited basis each day. So far, they are comfortable enough, but I am not experiencing any extra energy or pain relief that they promise. I will keep wearing them whenever I can each day. But if all I get is comfortable shoes, I may be returning them - and be out the shipping costs. I really want them to be amazing!!! I'd gladly pay for results. I'll keep you posted.
Peace, Love, and Joy |

Well, I returned them. Sadly, they just did not do it for me. I did, however, find Sketchers shape ups on big sale, locally. No miracles, but they sure are comfortable. Thanks for the help with that, ladies.
Peace, Love, and Joy |

Well, that was just my experience. I wish I could have worn them to work. That would have given me a better representation of what they might be able to do for me. But I do feel like I gave them as fair a chance as I was able. I am sure they work great for lots of folks, just not for me.
Peace, Love, and Joy |

Hi, newbie here, my husband has back trouble and he tried the Z-coils they really helped his back . they are not what I would call attractive, but they worked for him, the cost was about $250. The shoes are sold at z-coil stores so may be hard to find. |
