    As a foot doctor I look at tennis shoes and tennis shoe technology a bit differently as I focus more on what foot types benefit from these shoes as well as the tennis shoe's functional attributes on the tennis court
    Some of the main areas we cover in this Sketchers outlet shopping spree are :
    - The weight, durability, fit and playability of Sketchers
    - What are the features of the insole, midsole, and outsole
    - Sketchers shoe technology explained

    Thanks for the video! One of the reasons I find myself always going with Skechers is they are one of the very few companies that make readily available wide sizes. It seems like most shoe manufacturers think everyone has narrow feet. I will say skechers 15 years ago held up much better than skechers now, but unfortunately that is the business model of many companies, forced obsolescence. Thanks again. I really appreciate a podiatrist's view on footwear

    I think what makes skechers so popular is their versatile range.

    It highly depends on what your issues are, if any, and use case is.

    I've worn a lot of shoes over my life time. I played a lot of basketball in the 90s and 2000s, and I worn ice-skates and skiing boots as well, among other types of sports shoes. I'm in my 50s now. I will admit, these Sketchers wear out pretty quickly from just waking on pavement/asphalt. I do walk a lot. But they are super comfortable for staying up your feel long periods of time, as you mentioned, like slippers. Yes, most of them have laces for decorative purposes because they are made from an elastic material that allows you to slip in and out easily, but they do grip your feet properly without actually cutting circulation. To be fair, out of the 4-5 pairs I currently have, only 2 of them wont leave my feet if I run at full speed. And those are the ones that have laces, but... I do wear the others too, coz I almost never run at full speed at my current age. But my bones hurt like I am a teenager with growing pains. And it is from standing on my feet walking all day. These are better than crocks. And your feet will not stink from them.
    BTW, they wear out on the inside way faster than on the outside. Mine, and I did have generations of these shoes, disintegrate on the interior, long before the outside is damaged in any way. At my current requirements, I feel like a pair of these would simply be unwearable within a year. The inside bottom of the shoe disintegrates over time like a rubber eraser would. It simply turns to like lint droppings would be the safest description. Plus they loose their softness. The sole of the shoe becomes hard over time. And then brittle. And then cracks form. But the outside is the last one to give up.

    • @sunrevolver

      It's mainly due to the non-existent arch support. Your weight is not distributed properly. That's why you have certain side wear out faster than the other sides.

    I am 2 years out from a Trimalleolar ankle fracture that still swells. I cannot wear any of my existing footwear and tried on hundreds of different sneakers and shoes. I'm in Italy, and my son brought me a pair of Skechers Daylights Be-lux from the UK. They have changed my life. They are flexible around the ankle, allow my foot to roll naturally due to the flexible sole, they've a memory insole. Plus, they are super lightweight...perfect for my bad back making it easy to lift my feet. The Daylights were last year's model and are no longer in production. I've had to order them from all over Europe and I'm now the proud owner of 7 pairs in various colors. These shoes have literally given me my life back. Not every foot/ankle injury requires a stiff sole. Skechers is probably not making these shoes anymore because of the bad rap podiatrist's have given these flexible shoes. 😞

    I'm particular when I buy sketchers.
    There are only a few I like and think are comfortable in long term.
    The Go Run Ultra Trail Altitude-Element for me, is probably the best shoe I have worn from Sketchers. Note: with frequent use walking 5-10miles.. After 6mo the wear on them makes them about done. But they're often on Sale for $50-65 which isn't bad for what I'd call a "consumable" comfort shoe.
    They're very comfortable out of the box and I've worn them for work 10-14hrs on my feet. The Goga Mat that they put in some of their shoes are absolutely amazing. I've owned 6 pairs of them so far. About every 6 mo.. I toss em and get a new pair.
    For a bit more serious activity I bought another comfort shoe, but they costs 2- 3X what the sketchers I enjoy go for. Hoka Anacapa Mid, they arrive in about a week. Lastly, when you can get a good sale, Merrell Moab 2 Tactical mid trail boots are comfortable and very durable.

    As a seasoned boot and trainer (sneakers) wearer, I've always found many Skechers footwear to be sub-standard, as mentioned in this video many of the Skechers footwear doesn't have a rubber outsole, to which the footwear won't last long. As a standard for myself, I will always buy footwear with a Vibram outsole, usually, Merrell branded, the outsole is very hard-wearing that has lasted on average 1.5 years per pair. I have mild cerebral palsy with Talipes Eqinovarus (club foot) on my right foot and my left leg is between 25mm to 30mm longer than my right leg, so getting the correct footwear is paramount for me. Around 6 months ago or so I was looking for really comfortable trainers (sneakers), after having sciatica nerve pain on the bottom of my heel, I purchased 3 pairs of Nike Pegasus 37, whilst being extremely comfortable at first, I found my arch area started to hurt, turns out the soft foam was causing my arch to stretch which made matters worse. So decided to stick to using boots from Merrell with the Vibram sole and solid footbed to stabilise my foot and no stretching of my arch area, so far the pain in my foot is very slowly subsiding and the tingling with the sciatic nerve damage is not as bad these days. It's worth investing a few more dollars on something that will last longer but more importantly give you great comfort, something you cannot always put a price on.

I also go to a chiropractor monthly to help with the left foot problem. My own Doctor has stated it could be a prolapsed disc in my spine or maybe pelvic tilt that is pinching the sciatic nerve. Personally I would have loved to get an scan done to find out the main cause. For me personally I've been using the Merrell Moab 2 walking shoes, or any footwear that has a stable foot bed, my podiatrist stated it's better to have a firm stable foot bed than wearing trainers that are soft and squishy, I have to agree with him as my foot is better, I still have the sciatic tingling in my left heel 24/7, however, it is very mild these days.

    Went to the Skechers store today.
    First pair I bought are the Skechers Vigor 3.0 with Goodyear rubber, thick sole, great tread, leather/mesh upper and tie up laces. Really durable shoe. Fits more snug and seems more solid than my $90 Nike Air Max Excee.
    The second pair is Skechers Vapor Foam. Thick foam sole with some rubber on the bottom, tie up laces, all mesh upper. Not as rigid as the Vigor 3.0 but still a nice shoe for putting on and going somewhere. I do like the aesthetics of the Vapor Foam. And it was more of a solid shoe than the majority of the other foam sole shoes.
    Thanks for doing this video to show how non-rigid and cheap a lot of these foam/mesh shoes can be. There are some decent foam/mesh shoes, but you have to really vet which style you’re looking at for rigidity.
    Skechers isn’t the only brand guilty of selling cheap mesh/foam shoes that don’t benefit the customer.

    Let me add that I have a history of over-pronation and flat feet (warehouse flooring) -I just bought the Skechers max-cushioning slip ons for LOCAL use only-I have support shoes, and the Brooks Beast was the best-followed by the Saucony shoes, (2E Wide) these are very supportive for my condition. . I don't recommend skechers for all day walking or standing all day, because what WILL break down eventually with the memory foam. I feel they don't support your arches as say the bigger brand running shoe are. The price was pretty outrageous to me...but I bought it more for the slip-on convenience. If you have foot problems, see your podiatrist and get the proper shoe for your condition. These are great for small stuff-but as pointed out in the video, not for the hard running or all day workloads. You only have one pair of feet!

    The go walk series are definitely my favs. Those elastic laces are really convenient. I really don't get what you meant there's no support cuz i used it for running and casual wear and its fine. Add that with the goga mat insole, foam midsole and goodyear rubber its definitely a worth buy.

    I loved Skechers until recently the insoles have been wearing out and leaving divets on the ball of my foot in less than 6 months then my feet start hurting, I was attracted to them because I need wide width, they are so glued in seems impossible to take the insoles out, any suggestions?

    My go to have been the sketchers afert burn with a arch support I get from the doc. nothing custom. I also have drop foot and use an orthotic called the turbomed. this afo is new for me. Before, i had a inside the shoe, which sucked. I like the sketechers because they were cheap, i burn through my right shoe fast, and they are readily available in extra wide. i want shoes the have arch support but im a little shy to buy something expensive because i wear out one shoe faster than the other because of my gait. any suggestions to try? I need strong eyelets as well because my afo straps through the eyelets.

    I am organising a trip to Japan and I am looking for a versatile pair of shoes that are comfortable and breathable. In general my feet sweat a lot and I am planning to do 10-15km walking there daily. The thing is that in Japan you take off your shoes everywhere so I want to avoid the embarrassment of sweaty or possibly smelly feet so I am looking for a solution. Where I live in Italy I alternate running shoes and avoid smelly feet but I am planning to bring only a pair and I am looking for a more casual look that will support walking a lot and be really breathable. Skechers looked like it had some decent models. Would you recommend anything in particular or any other brand I should look into? Also, Ive never worn merino socks. Do these make any difference? Thanks in advance!

    so if you go to twist a shoe and it doesn't behave like a 2x4 it has suboptimal arch support? is there any scientific evidence for this idea? I'm also unclear on what the phrase 'bottoming out' means, as it is used to describe both outsoles and insoles. It would be interesting to discuss on what grounds these skechers shoes are able to make the claim that they are 'podiatrist recommended' and to ask multiple podiatrists if they agree with the methodology and conclusions.

I wish there some recommendations to help out with that. Lol

      Barefoot running is a whole different ball game than an unsupportive shoe, when you’re barefoot/ minimalist you actually have ground contact which adds stability- when you’re in a shoe that just has no support your brain thinks its supported but it really isn’t and that’s where you twist because of the proprioception confusion in your brain vs sensory nerves
