Skechers Shape Ups vs. MBT's

Skechers has come out with a new line of shoes they call Shape Ups... http://www.skechers.com/info/shape_ups The claims are that they help tone your muscles and improve your posture, and lose weight! Do they work? I would love to have some reviews here of actual wearers of these new shoes. I have looked at them, and tried on a pair at my local shoe store, but haven't decided yet if they are worth the price. $114 for a pair of men's size 13. I will admit they felt very comfortable on my feet. Walking didn't feel better or worse, it was different though in the sense that my feet had a spongier rocking motion while pacing around the store. And then when I put on my regular pair of shoes, they to felt a bit strange when walking in them. I will probably eventually buy  a pair and see if they really do all they claim. I am reading good reviews of them at Amazon, and the reviews are mostly all good on the You Tube site. If you have tried these shoes and like them, give me some feedback...the same goes to those who have tried them and hated them.
After doing more research, I found another shoe company that makes a similar shoe to the Shape Ups. In fact   they are the original version of the shoe. Check out their site at http://us.mbt.com/
Has anybody out there tried these shoes? Your comments are welcome here also...
