“Bought a pair of waterproof hiking boots. Second day I was out in the rain and my feet got soaked. Worthless boots. Sorry I bought them. Wrote to customer service and never heard back.”
“We purchased our 4 year old son a pair of Skechers which lasted less than a month. The quality isn't there and customer service is unavailable. The response from their customer service team is 'we do not have replacements'. I really had higher expectations for such a large company.”
“20 years ago I bought a pair of the Skechers Mary Jane shoes. Loved them! I bought a pair of boys camo Skechers for my grandson. Bought them for his birthday a month ago. The Velcro broke off. My grandson tripped and hit his head on the desk at school. The shoes are in the trash. Never buying sketchers again. Wal-Mart shoes lasted longer.”
“Hope less quality I bought shoes 3 years before of rs 10000/- started wearing 18 months before and with in the month both side soule are out wearing it by sticking feviquick. Not at all worth buying this brand”
“If I could give I stars I would. Purchaes a pair of sketchers with bungee cord laces, the right shoe bungee cord lace was way too loose and could not wear shoes my foot would slip out every time I took a step. The right shoe also seems wider than the right. Two weeks later I went to take them back and switch for another pair and they said I would have to contact sketchers they can not take them back. I jumped threw hoops and sent pic and all they will do is give me a 35% off coupon to buy another pair. Buyer Be Ware they dont stand behind their waranty. I will nver buy another pair again they are cheap junk.”
“I bought a pair of skechers a few years back. Within a few months they started separating (sole from base shoe), within 8 months they had become unwearable. Unfortunately skechers appear to be a triumph of marketing over quality (like many highly marketed brands). I will never ever buy another pair of shoes from this company, and I would recommend that nobody else buys shoes of this brand.
It comes down to a truism - if manufacturers produce good quality products that people want to buy, they don't need to spend money advertising it. Skechers spend a lot of money advertising. Unfortunately in this case it appears to mean shoddy products”
“I bought a pair of sketcher sandals that unfortunately were too small. I returned them the same day that I received via UPS and I have the tracking receipt that they were received. They still have not refunded my money, they never answer their phone and I sent two emails with ZERO response. I will never purchase anything from Skechers.com. Absolutely horrible customer service when they never answer their phone or emails. I will now have to address this with my credit card company to get my money back.”
“This applies to the online ordering and returns, not a Skechers retail store. I ordered and received a pair of Skecher AirWalk shoes on a Thursday. The following Sunday the black "Goodyear" sole on the left shoe became unglued? (if it was ever glued onto the body of the shoe). The black flap of rubber was flopping around underfoot as I walked. I returned the shoes as defective and requested a refund. On hearing back from Skechers, I was advised that since the shoes were "lightly worn" (like for an hour), I could not get a refund, but that I could get a Skechers gift card for the full amount. OK. I needed shoes so I re-ordered a different style, some socks and some shoe cleaner, just to use up the value of the gift card I received. The replacement shoes and socks arrived ok and so far everything is ok. Then I get an email that the cleaner is no longer available, so they are refunding the value BACK onto the giftcard....now it's getting aggravating. So I return to the online store and attempt to use the $8.00 that was returned to buy more socks, only to find out the money has not been credited to the original gift card. At this point I have no idea where my remaining balance is. I know it's only $8... .but come on man, none of this would have happened had your shoes been of a quality to actually walk around in. No longer considering Skechers products in the future.”
“I will never order another pair of sketchers on line again. I ordered on 3/9/22. My charge was immediately withdrawn from my checking account. They arrived and sent back immediately and I tracted the delivery. They were received by sketchers on 3/24. I called twice to ask about my refund after waiting over a half an hour and was told “Oh yes we received ur shoes . We will send u and e-mail stated we received them then in 2 weeks u will receive ur refund “. Needless to say I’m upset .”
“As a long time happy customer I ran into my first issue only to find the Company is not reputable. After six weeks of normal use the inner seam on my new Go Walkers began to separate. I called customer service and provided all the required information which included pictures of the damage and sole to confirm new. The response was I needed to return their defective product at my expense which was not acceptable. I asked if I could return to the store and advise stores do not handle defective merchandise which is ridiculous. This policy is designed to discourage customers and avoid returns. I generally purchase two pairs of Skechers annually but in the future it will be a different brand.”
“I have bought a pair of sketchers shoes due to some medical condition. In Pakistan which costs around 10,000 Rupees and its the most expensive shoes but I still went for it upon medic’a recommendation.
The shoe came apart after only 3 days of purchase which was very shocking for me and after complaining to local store then sent it to repair and the repaired shoe also came apart, after complaining again they replaced it with a new shoe which i have barely used for 4 days and it is coming apart as well. I am highly disappointed in sketchers, they are ripping of people in the name of quality however, the quality is worst than any local shoe.”
“Started falling apart after 3 weeks! A loose thread near the front toe at first, and then a small hole started forming! I had only worn these around the office! These were sitting in a box for 2 months so you would not allow me to return them.
This was my 3rd pair of Skechers this year (and ever) and sad to say because of this experience - both with a faulty product and how it was dealt with - you have lost me as a customer! Faulty products happen - this was probably only missing a bit of glue - BUT its how you deal with them that makes the difference!”
“My husband and I bought a pair each within a month the sole on one shoe each came unglued from toe to the middle of shoe. It sucks because they were really comfortable. Will not buy another pair.”
“Sketchers has ripped me off really bad. I bought a pair of shoes & sent them back to get a new size. They disappeared! I got no refund. I don't recommend this company to anyone! They will rip u off the first chance they get.”
“3 months old and sole and shoe separated, after looking at reviews this seems to be a common problem .My wife and I have many purchased many of your brand, my local store said they only warranty for 30 days. Done with sketchers.”
“I have a membership, since Christmas I I was looking for a size 3 for one of my grandchildren. I had gotten all 4 of them, would have been 5 including their mom and dad just because my husband and I loved loved them. Anyway I finally found them at Skechers outlet at Greenville on Wedsday March 9. They had only 1 pair, I had also had found them from my Skechers email but it was same shoe wrong color. BUT if I had used my email account it would have taken off 20% and the price was 32.99. Also it said this price could be used in store. Well went in store, found the shoe in right size and color (and of course they only had 1 size 3). I took it up to the counter to purchase it and she said I did not have that membership with them, I pulled up my email account showed her the account, she said it wasn't showing up on her iPad!! So I guess I paid for what?!?! Same shoes cost me 56.00. And all she or her answer was I can "Refund Your Money" like that helps when a six year old is the only one that didn't get Christmas gift!! And. I. Had. The. 200pts.. on my phone. So what is the deal, or was it a scam at Christmas time to get more money from me? We hav 11 pairs of sketches. That is out of 9 people. Love the shoes, hated the service!!”
