Kara1204 Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Curves (via Avon) now has leg toning TENNIS SHOES! These are the poor man's (or poor woman's) alternative to the MBT shoes. A lot of us have tried the Curves leg toning sandals and the Bath and Body Works Fit Flops and wished there was a tennis shoe that could be worn to WORK. Now there IS!!! They are selling for $39.99 at Avon.com Use code AVON710 for FREE shipping! I can hardly wait to get them! Another good thing, Avon accepts Paypal payments. http://shop.avon.com/shop/product.asp?pf_id=31938&from=search&find_spec=curves%20leg%20toning&camp=200720&dir_delivery=1&rep_delivery=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like walking on a 2X4 strapped to your foot. NO give to the soles in them things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kara1204 Posted September 27, 2007 Author Share Posted September 27, 2007 UPDATE: I wore the shoes to work today for the first time. Took my old pair just in case the new ones got uncomfortable. They were GREAT!!! I do not think I have ever had a more comfortable pair of shoes! I walk 6-8 miles a day at my job (I have worn a pedometer several times to check) and I never had a sore moment from these shoes. They made my legs feel more energetic, even at the end of the day. It feels as though your posture is forced into being good and straight. LOTS of people noticed and asked about my new shoes. I just may buy another pair to have for back up. They are still $39.99 on line, but $49.99 in the catalog they sent me with my order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3dnick Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I have the fit flops and the first few days was hard to get used too but love them now. I really can't praise them enought you can feel your muscles toning... what a great way too stay in shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t_mulkey Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I am an Avon rep. I am at least 3 to 5 pairs of these shoes ordered each campaign. My customers love them. I do too! They are currently $39.99 online and catalog. PM if you need help ordering. My customers have ordered the tennis shoes and the sandals. They go crazy over all of the Curves stuff. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilbuddha Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 They have no size 5-51/2. That's a big downer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panda Girl Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 How is their sizing? For those that have ordered them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kara1204 Posted September 28, 2007 Author Share Posted September 28, 2007 How is their sizing? For those that have ordered them?I am an 8 1/2. I ordered 8 1/2 and it fit PERFECT! I am hard to fit with a bunion on the right foot. But, these shoes are plenty wide and do not rub at all. Absolutely no "breaking in" period. They felt great the first day I wore them!

I am so glad they came out with something I can wear to work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamster Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 They are also offering, with this and select other Curves products this deal: Free Tour, Figure Analysis and Two-Week Guest Pass with this purchase! This is very timely as I was just saying I needed to join Curves when I saw some kind of deal available. The socks with pocket look really comfy, too! I guess this is definitely a sign...no more excuses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t_mulkey Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Being an Avon rep, I have a few free Curves passes. I would be happy to send them to anyone that would like one.

Kara1204 Posted September 29, 2007 Author Share Posted September 29, 2007 OMG I should have waited to buy these... I have MBT's and love em but I paid WAY too much!Oh yeah.....MBT is the first shoe I investigated and decided NOT to spend 200+ bucks. That led me to Fit Flops at BBW, but they were on back order until August and I did not want to wait. I eventually found the Curves sandals (I think it might of been on a suggestion from another GottaDealer?????) and bought those. Loved them so much and wished for a shoe. Guess my wish came true!

AFkat Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I got the Curves tennis shoes and couldn't wear them, gave them to a thrift shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kara1204 Posted April 14, 2009 Author Share Posted April 14, 2009 I just got my 3rd pair in the mail last week. Ugly? You bet. But they are the ONLY shoes that have been comfortable right out of the box for me. Absolutely no "breaking in" period. May I add that if you are not in the least bit physically fit, then these shoes will make your legs sore the first few days you wear them. You can't just give up after the first try. Give them a couple of days and you will start to feel the benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
