“Bought a pair of women's air-cooled memory foam Sketchers. First day- sooo comfortable. However by day 3 I started to have unusual knee pain and sharp pain in my ankles when I stepped from time to time. I realized something was very wrong so I googled Sketchers complaints. Opened a Pandora's Box of serious ligament issues. Recommend buyers check out Sketchers' complaints before buying. A real eye opener.”
“I bought the slip on shoe. It was on sale for an alright price. They have so much memory foam in them that the foot won't fit properly and because of the memory foam the inside shoe size is wrong it makes them a while size smaller. Plus why is a sport shoe getting memory foam inserts shaped like a high heel. Cover the whole sole or don't, it is annoying and wasting our time.”
“If I have to give genuine review, sketchers is just increasing the prices to be in the market but not at all the quality.
Quality is going poor and poor day by day.
Wear and tear in 10 days that too for the men’s shoes of 20,000/-
Is 20,000/- a small amount for shoes?
The level of premature damage is unacceptable specially when you’re taking shoe of 20k.
Than 1 year back I took razor trail 2 of 15000/- that too got torn in 4 months and sketchers Ludhiana Malhar road people said we can’t do anything.
So taking a shoe from sketchers is a big mistake.
They don’t make sports shoes at all as they don’t have technology of sports
Will not at all take sketchers shoes from now.
Thanks sketchers for breaking trust every time I take your shoe”
“Bought GOrun Trail Altitude 2.0 - Cardona Ridge purple colour. Supposed to be water repellent and anti slip. Please do not buy if you are looking for anti slip function as these shoes will slip on wet surfaces . Almost fell a few times wearing it . What’s the use of water repellant if the shoes can’t be worn at all on raining days. Please stop producing these kinds of harmful shoes. One thing good is they are comfy but for what ? Maybe the person who designed should try on these shoes first . Utterly disappointed. Now became white elephants . Just worn a few times 😅”
“The worst quality shoes i have ever worn.
After less than month of use they have holes in heel area and cracks near fingers. Refused to give my money back. I used them for 4 km walks every few days.”
“Worst shoes ever, bought the go walk arch fit and after one day caused injury to my right heel and I can’t wear them, expensive and they refused to refund or exchange
Poor customer service, will never buy these again and will let everyone know about my poor experience with this company”
“I loved Skechers-slip ins. They are the most comfortable shoes to wear. But I will never buy an other pair. The quality is terrible. They wear out within 3 months. They are a ripoff. I’m back to New Balance.”
“Bought 4 pairs at Santa Ana warehouse, had “original “ receipt from purchase. My assistant exchanged his for a different pair. A new receipt was printed. When I tried to exchange my pair with original receipt on April 6th we were not allowed. Because we didn’t have the second receipt (which is not original) we could not get full credit for what we exchanged. The extra cost was about $50! I will not do business with them in the future when they don’t honor their terms. Also, I am sorry that I did not look at the reviews first because it seems my issues are consistent with those written.”

“I had a terrible experience with Skechers. The shoes I bought started falling apart within weeks, even though I wore them lightly. The quality is nowhere near what they advertise. On top of that, customer service was completely unhelpful when I reached out for a replacement. Definitely not worth the price—better to spend your money elsewhere!”
“I had my Skechers D'Lites for 6 weeks.
I walked in them for half an hour everyday and I wore them other times too.
At 6 weeks the inside heels of both shoes had ripped.
They are almost to the point of leaving blisters.
I also had to break them in because they hurt the first few times I wore them.”
“Subject: Extremely Disappointing Experience at Store #01391
Dear [Store Manager/Customer Service Team],
I am writing to express my extreme disappointment regarding the dreadful service I received at your store. On March 31 at 17:01:19, I visited store #01391 (Register 01, Transaction 062214) to purchase a D'Lites Play On Black.
When I requested a fresh piece instead of one from the display, the staff member outright refused. Her attitude was rude and impolite, and she demonstrated a complete lack of customer service skills. Despite my clear explanation that I have an allergy, she still refused to provide me with a fresh piece from the back. This level of service is completely unacceptable.
I urge you to address this issue immediately and ensure that your staff is properly trained in both customer service and handling allergy-related requests. No customer should have to face such dismissive and unprofessional treatment.
I expect a prompt response and an explanation of how you intend to rectify this matter.
Sincerely,
Shereen”
“My bad experience was today 3/26/25 @7:12pm store #00541. Pearlanf Tx. I took my 76 year old mom to buy shoes which she bought 6 pairs and both sales associates working were very rude! The young man was not friendly at all and when ask for help seemed very bothered then the cashier lady was very unpleasant I told her it seems like no one smiles here she responded “that’s just our faces” I asked her for there names since she didn’t have a name badge on and she responded “ we are not allowed to give our names” she was a young woman (assoc:130471) Both of them made our experience unpleasant and we still bought 6 pairs of shoes! Please train them to give better customer service!!”
“I bought a pair of sketchers, the hands free ones, I wore them to work today and they hurt my feet so bad.They are the worst shoes i have ever had on my feet. I called sketchers to see what they could do about it and they offered me a thirty five percent discount on another pair so buyer beware!!!!”
“11 months ago i purchased a pair of Skechers shoes (Go Run) and was disappointed with the quality. The sole's gum is not strong, causing it to wear out quickly. The overall build of the shoes feels subpar, especially considering the brand's reputation. I expected better durability and comfort, but unfortunately, these shoes did not meet my expectations. Skechers should improve the sole quality to ensure better longevity and value for customers. And should replace this pair of shoes.”
“I bought the sketchers zip up work shoes and they are the most uncomfortable work shoes o have ever wore. I’m on my feet 10 hours a day on concrete and I have tried 5 different pair of inserts and the shoes still hurt like hell. For 109.00 u would think they would be a comfortable work shoes and they are not slip resistant very slick on rainy days. Would not recommend sketchers . Had better luck with Georgia giant work shoes.”
