Re: Sketchers trainers
For the past 4 years I've used "Grinnel" with composite toes.
Shop around the prices vary.
At the moment £69.99 on Amazon, £95 direct from Skechers. (The last pair I got were £50 from Amazon)
They lasted a good 6 months and are like wearing slippers.
Sometimes cheaper if you have a Skechers outlet near you or a Pavers shop.

Re: Sketchers trainers
+1 from me, they're nice and comfy but no good for work, they'll wear out in no time plus when it's raining if I walk into the supermarket or anywhere with a smooth floor I nearly end up on my arse.LancePercival wrote: ↑01 Aug 2023, 18:46Mate they wont last, bought a pair in May, already in the bin, I got some Karrimor shoes for about £30, there decent,

Re: Sketchers trainers
The shoes now are totally crap. With the amount of walking we do surely they can come up with a decent pair. Best ones for me were the magnum shoes

Re: Sketchers trainers
They are great for around the house and so on. But for a walk, they are rubbish, and for the expense are poor value for money.

Re: Sketchers trainers
Walks are twice as long so the footwear budget had to be cut in half. I wish I had stockpiled the Magnum boots.
The machine stops.

Re: Sketchers trainers
Skechers are terrible for walks. The grip is worn smooth within a month, slippy as racing slicks, and the sole wears through from the inside shortly after.
No doubt they're decent for indoor work but no good out on streets.
