This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Sketchers are sooo expensive and I used to buy them 3 years ago for my kids - they would actually last the entire school year.
But in the last few years they have been falling apart with VERY POOR quality!
I bought some for the whole family this summer and two pairs look old and the shoe lace backings are falling off.

I guess because all these shoes are made in China they are just CHEAP and not worth the price.

Bottom Line: Buy another brand; I am switching even though my kids really like the shoes (because of all the $$$$ they spend in advertising and targetting our kids).

I got two walking shoes online from Skechers USA and unfortunately the quality was not what I was expecting. Only in three months of use both of the shows are ruined. I have attached picture for the reference. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED.

I tripped for no reason going down stairs

I tripped several times just walking on my wood floors

I wasn’t hurt but am going to throw out 4 pair

Because I don’t want to take chance of falling

The go walk slipped seem to have problem with the bottom of the toe section of the sole

Dangerous

Purchased these on 10/07/2022 at Kohls Green Bay

wore on vacation 10/08/22 to 10/11/22 riding on a tour boat and noticed the flopping.

I have purchased Skechers work & casual shoes for over 25 years this was an embarrassing flopping of the ship.

Bought a pair of sketchers at Kohl's in February 2022 and the fronts on both shoes are coming apart. My kids had gotten sketchers and they lasted . Not mine they're only 90 some days old. Disappointed .

I bought a pair of Sketchers Shape-Ups for my husband. He tried them on, wore them around the house and then they disappeared into his closet, never to be worn again. When COVID hit, that gave us more time at home and he went through his closet and got a big pile of stuff to get rid of & the Sketchers were in the pile, still new in their box. It had been too long to take them back to the store and stores were all closed anyway so I sold them on eBay. The buyer sent a message when they received them telling me that they received them, wore them out to take a walk around the block and that the soul of the shoe just disintegrated and fell off. I contacted Sketchers and they refused to help with a replacement. Only offered a coupon for 30% off another pair. I will never buy Sketchers again. If they don't believe in their own product enough to stand behind the pair of shoes, why should I spend even 70% of my hard earned money to buy their cheaply made shoes again? Not to mention, I am not only out the original cost of the shoes but also selling fees, shipping fees & having to refund the buyer in full for selling a defective product.

Dear Skechers Company this is the second email I've sent about the Skechers RelaxedFit Air Cooled Memory Foam sneakers and not heard a response back. The purchase I made online from DSW. In the first week wearing the sneakers the insoles in both sneakers are coming a part. See photos for further information

Don't buy sketchers if you don't have money to throw away! I bought 2 pair of luxefoam sandals. They both had the soles flopping off in front and back. I bought them during the cooler season (Florida) and put them away in my closet to wear in Spring. What a mistake because now I can't take them back. Sketchers used to have a good product but not anymore! Save your money! I'll never buy sketchers again. Cheap Cheap Cheap.

I also have the same problem. The quality was so bad and last year I had bought 2 pairs of sketcher's shape up with RM399 per pair in Malaysia. I weared a few time only the shoe lace are broken. I have asked the branches whether can repair but they said cannot repair. Regret to purchase as I thought the quality will improve as I known past few years this already been happened but others brand with the same age still look good.

I too have a complaint about the quality of Sketcher Shoes. I bought a pair 6 months ago and they have already fallen apart behind the heal, nothing left but the plastic frame. I contacted the company and was for all practical purposes called a liar. I spent a month almost trying to deal with the company being as professional as possible just to be insulted. This problem was not due to wear but poor quality of the product. So my advise to anyone thinking of investing ( that's what it is being the price you pay ) look at other brands. To Sketcher's Company if you read this remember you brought this complaint on yourself for not doing the right thing and backing your product inorder to save a loyal customer. Don in Mississippi, this is only the beginning Sketcher's.
