I did consider buying a pair - but my daughter said it would be the last straw for ever being seen with me again

$120 ($40 bucks each).

I bought two pair. I don't dislike them but I did find them unsuitable for actual exercise and had to turn around and buy New Balance because I was completely clobbering my feet.

I never believed for a minute they were magic shoes but I did expect them to be good walking/cross trainers and they were not.

That would have tipped me over into buying a pair.

Interesting, because I thought they were just kids shoes, my daughters got a bunch of Sketchers shoes, gifts and second hand, none bought new, I just assumed they were a trendy kids shoe brand.

They are good shoes generally.

It depends on the kind of Skechers. It is $20 each for the Shape Ups.

They're well made, good looking and comfortable - the last 3 pairs of sports shoes I've bought have been Skechers.

I just filled it in. If they say bugger off then it's no loss as they're still pretty decent shoes. The money could always pay for my Go-Runs that I bought for running in. So far I've owned them about 2 months and they've not made me run even once, I sense another law suit.

Yeah, I filled it in too. I don't have my receipts but I still have both pairs and they can have them if they want. One pair I ordered off the Skechers website and I've got the never ending spam-mail to prove it.

A kids brand they predominantly are. Trendy they most certainly are not, or never were.

We bought a pair for M when he first got out of his walking boot after smashing his heal up. They were the only shoes he could wear for a few months. We don't have either receipt or shoes now but I think I'll try for it
