Bought 2 pairs. One was perfect. The other was... Counterfeit?
As the title says, I purchased 2 pairs of these. The first pair fit pretty well and was extremely comfortable to wear both around the home and out on jogs.I ordered a second pair so that I would have a pair to wear for everyday use and another one that would get used more for trail running. 2 different levels of wear and tear.The first thing I noticed with the second pair when they arrived was that it was missing the 2 holes at the top for added tightness. I have read many reviews of shoes coming like this and most people just poke a hole in them. The second thing I noticed was that the laces were totally different than the first pair. They were circular instead of flat. The third thing I noticed was that these shoes were already tied. I have purchased a lot of shoes\sneakers online before and these were the first pair that were tied when I received them.I wore them for 2 days and my ankles were killing me afterwards. I ended up returning the second pair. I honestly believe this is a seller issue more-so than a product issue, but it is getting very unappealing buying products from this site and getting totally different versions each time. Also note, I purchased each pair about 1 week in-between each other so it isn't even possible that Sketchers changed the style over a certain period of time.See the photo for detailed evidence of what I am talking about.

Insoles wear out fast...I called Skechers...here is what they said
I have bought several pair of these. They last me around 3-4 weeks, and then I have to throw them away.The problem is the insoles wear out...even though on the outside of the box is says "Long lasting insoles".Since everything else is fine with the shoes, I called Skechers and asked if I called by more of their insoles. They said they would not sell the to me.It is just strange to throw away a perfectly good pair of shoes for something that they said would last but doesn't.

Comfortable but not durable at all. Worn out in 2 months
I wear these shoes to go on two walks a day with my dog and then for doing some light physical therapy. One of the shoes, the sole has half the grippy bits worn off in two months! Our walk is usually 3-4 blocks of jogging (if that) and then at most a mile of walking. So in 60 days, that is a max of 120 miles and it's probably much closer to 80. They are almost ready for the trash in two months. Also, the foam of one of the shoes is wearing out on the heel.Overall, these are comfy but man is the lack of quality showing. If it rains, my stairs have no traction, these are dangerous. And my wall sits, my feet slip out almost a full foot in 90 seconds. I don't recommend these unless your only concern is comfort

Comfortable All Day
I stand all day and do a lot of walking at work. I know these are running shoes, but I needed something that was lightweight, breath well, and offered good support. These shoes fit the bill. I've just returned to work after having been laid off (Coronavirus) for two months. Two days in and no blisters, and no foot pain other than the typical ache associated with being on your feet all day. I'm very happy with my purchase and will probably buy again if they're still available when these are worn out. These shoes were in my size and fit as expected. I tie them with a runner's knot to keep my feet from sliding around in them to prevent blisters. I also used Dr. Scholl's for work in my previous pair of shoes, but I did not need third party insolse for these.

Comfortable!
I bought a pair in black color from JCPenney and loved them, but they had a limited color selection, so I came to Amazon for a brown pair. Amazon was actually higher in price, surprisingly. These are very comfortable on long walks and for bicycling. As I age, I've had some plantar fasciitis and a little neuropathy, and these are the best off-the-shelf shoes I've found for those conditions. The toe box is wide enough that they don't squeeze those piggies like some shoes do. And...I think they look good. Now, they are very light weight, which MIGHT indicate that they won't last long. But this is pure speculation on my part. They actually seem well-constructed and besides, they are so comfortable that I plan to replace them with the same shoes as long as they are available.

Soles are uneven
The soles on the shoes are higher on the outer edges. When you take a step, the right or left side touch the ground first then the rest of the sole. This causes extra strain on the knees and ankles. I started having knee pains after a brief jog wearing these shoes.

Poor Durability
I got a pair and they lasted less than 5 months, I usually walk 25 miles a week. They were very comfortable, but one of the lace loops broke, the second from bottom up of the rigth one. Really nice looking and good if you are not going to use them as often as I did. But in general, I expected better quality from this brand.

Fits my extra wide feet and high instep
I have a hard time finding sneakers to fit my 13EEEE feet that is made extra difficult as I have very high instep too. These fit comfortably. the cushion in the soles are a bit softer than previous NB sneakers but these sneakers fit me better than the New Balance sneakers that cost 3 times as much. I will buy more Sketchers in the future,

Best trainers for casual runners
I have always struggled to find trainers that are comfortable to run in, I run short distances fairly regularly (5k and sometimes 10k) and they either rub, hurt my arch or really hurt my ankles. I also have tendinitis which poor trainers don’t help - these are without question the best I have run in, they are super comfortable and fit like a dream. I have had zero discomfort so far after a few weeks and I am thrilled with them. They may not be appropriate for an avid runner who clocks up huge distances but for your casual runners these really are fantastic and I was able to pick them up for a superb price to, under £40 for this comfort is amazing.

Very comfortable
These are very comfortable. I ordered a size 9 - as a gauge, I am usually a size 8.5 at Clarks and size 9 in Nike and Puma. These fit perfectly, at the risk of sounding like an oldie, they are comfortable, very comfortable. I have hit that stage in life where comfort takes priority over style, although these are not bad looking.I have only walked a few miles in them, I imagine they would be good for running. I use a 3/4 insert for my arches, there is room for this. With or without the insert, these are good. I would buy another pair.

Nice trainers....Reviewed after 3 months usage
Nice pair of trainers, bought as had Skechers before and found them a broad fit and very comfortable. This pair were no exception. However the foam material the sole is made of, although making for a comfortable shoe, doesn't wear well. I am quite disappointed that large areas off the tread on the sole have disppeared after 3 months. The shoe have not had overly heavy usage, only used around town. The uppers still look fine but i fear the soles are not value for money.

The Most Comfortable Trainer Ever.
My son found these trainers lightweight and the most comfortable ones he has ever owned,just like walking on air.They are very well made and breathable too and I am sure he will get a good long service from thembefore needing to replace them.I heartily recommend these Sketchers trainers and I hope they make more styles in a wide fitting in the futurefor both men and women.

They always fit and are now my go to brand
I was so pleased with my first pair of Sketchers lite-weight trainers that when I wanted a slightly heavier trainer I went straight to the same brand - adverts are often to be taken with a pinch of salt, Sketchers live up to the most comfortable tag, my feet love them !The trainers are well made, good looking and at a bit over £40 not unreasonable either, I'm a Sketchers convert !
