“Brand new sneakers that I bought a while back so I would have them when my current pair ran out which I knew was coming up soon. Put them on today for the first time ready to go to the gym and as soon as I started walking in them the bottoms fell apart. I am trying to glue them together with shoe glue but they were like $100 shoes. Very unhappy . I have tried uploading photos multiple times but it says we could not upload one of your files please try again or contact support. I don't see support. I've tried multiple times and I had six different pictures and not one would upload”
“My physiotherapist advised me to buy these. How wrong he was. I bought bobs sport hands free and wish I hadn’t bothered. They nip my feet and are not suitable for women with even small bunions.”
“New slip in shoes purchased in Lisbon while on holiday. I wore them in the rain the next day and slipped as the soles had no traction. 3 cracked ribs and about 6 weeks of pain, so far.
I live in Ireland but my formal complaint was handle by an automated email from the UK!
What has the UK got to do with EU citizens?”
“I have always liked Sketchers until my order arrived today. I ordered 2 pair of slip ins hands free. They arrived today, no shipping, but $115 each plus tax. Both pairs have tie laces. I called customer service, and she said you tie them once and they stay tied. The picture also showed no tie bow. Way too pricey for supposed slip ins. Joke!!”
“I bought a pair of slip on Skecher shoes and went for a short trial walk and came home with sore heels, one of them bleeding.
I am very disappointed because there is no chance of exchanging them, as I wanted, because I had actually worn them.
These shoes were obviously not fit for purpose.
Not for everyone.”
“It was very disappointing to see that Skechers does not have size 5 or 6 for men. Hearing this from store I feel company has not it's survey properly. Adults can also have have shorter feet how will they cater to such customers if their size starts from 7" in men's section.....??”
“The soles separated from the shoe except at the front.
When I want to use it as a shoe, I tie a rope to keep the pieces together.
When I want to use it as a slipper, I tie the sole to my ankle, across my foot, and I gave a slipper!
A shoe/slipper combo! What an idea!!”
“The upper part of these work boots peeled and then the souls fell apart from the uppers. I called and all I got was the run around sent pictures and got more run around ,again the worst shoes I've ever bought and this company does not back their shoes .Never again , don't waste your money on Skechers shoes”
“Go to Skechers outlet to buy shoes. Was told spring sale promotion going on and second pair was 50% off only to find out one of the pairs we chose were excluded from the sale. Felt like classic bait and switch scenario.”
“My golf shoe lining wore out in both heals after 14 months. Sent all pictures and sr no and they said too bad. Wore out way too early and the nubs on the bottom wore down too.
Will not buy sketchers again the service was insulting. They gave no reason I could not return in 2 years warranty claim.”
“I purchased a pair of slip ins and after a few months the inner fabric at the heel started to come apart. I shipped them back to Skechers on February29, 2024 via USPS tracking. They delivered the shoes to Skechers at 10:48 March 4, 2024. I heard nothing from them since. Today, April 4,2024 I spoke to customer service and was told that the folks at quality control said that the inside lining of the shoe falling apart was normal wear and tear. Really? They offered me a discount coupon for 35% and told me that's all they will do. Why would I want to pay for another pair of shoes that won't last? I was told by customer service that quality control makes the final decision for Skechers. I am beyond disappointed in Skechers and they have effectively made me a former customer.”
“What Sketchers. gym shoes wore them twice? The first time? I fell. I hurt myself pretty bad.The next time I fell a few weeks ago broke my nose. Got a brainbleed and stitches. I have hardwood floors and they stick to the hardwood Floors. don't buy them, please.”
“I won't buy another shoe from skechers had an issue with a return a regional manager was suppose to contact me never heard a word their customer commitment sucks they care nothing about their customers”
“Walking shoes shout 1-1/2 years old. Skechers SN 237145 Vigor. Mildly used. Falling apart. Fake leather uppers are cracking. Soon my toes will be poking out. No more Skechers for me.”
“I've been buying Sketchers for some time, mainly in Ireland. Recently, I purchased a pair of slip-ins, (aptly named) on vacation, in Lisbon (€100).
I slipped and fell heavily a few days later due to the total lack of grip in the rain on the typical white Portuguese street footpath tiles. The shoe sole pattern is totally different from previous purchases.
As an EU citizen, purchasing in the EU, I was amazed to discover that Sketchers support is UK based.
Awaiting response, March 2024”
