How to use the shaperead function for multiple files?

I am importing data as .shp files. I have figured out how to extract only the data that pertains to me (for one .shp file) but I need to do this for ~1000 more. I know I'll have to write a "for" loop, or I assume I will have to, but my problem right now is getting MATLAB to go through all of the .shp files that I have now. Any advice/help is greatly appreciated!
