Footwear fans can help support a worthwhile cause when they buy a new pair of shoes, as Skechers Shape-ups have collaborated with a charity.

A special pink-detailed version of the fitness shoes has been created to raise funds for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

The American brand will be donating $10 (£6.65) to the charity for each pair of its limited edition Awareness shoes that are purchased.

All the money raised will be used towards helping fund worldwide projects into treating and finding a cure for the disease.

Since the shoes will not be released until October to coincide with Breast Cancer Awareness Month, why not try out a pair of the shoes now to see the benefits they can have on your fitness.

The Optimize model is created to help to tone the muscles while you walk, giving an even more effective workout than by simply walking in regular trainers.
