Skechers Men's Afterburn Memory-Foam Lace-up Sneaker

Comment

Considering the price of these, I expected them to last more than six months after only light use. Im a student and I only use these for walking to and from class, but theyre already starting to fall apart. This is made worse by the fact that three of those months were actually summer vacation, where I hardly ever wore these shoes at all. So were effectively talking 3 months of light use before they started falling apart. Edit: I was really hoping these would be a good shoe. As I hope is apparent from the picture, the shoes were barely worn and theres already a hole about 2.5 inches long in the front. I realize that there are many pictures of shoes which were clearly worn down and abused with people complaining about the durability of the shoes when they just treated them badly, but these barely even have dirt on them. I dont have the money to afford another pair, but even as Im shopping around for a cheaper option, my roommate is telling me, "buy sketchers - mine lasted me 2 years," which makes this all the more disappointing.

Ive worn a lot of Sketcher shoes over the years. These have the typical Sketcher comfort, but none of the typical Sketcher durability. In the past, most of my Skechers have worn out in the tread. Ive been wearing these for three months and now the sole is separating from the upper on one of them. My big toe will be poking out soon. Not pleased. For that reason, I would not recommend these.

I started mall-walking on February 18, getting these Sketchers shortly after. They have been great. So far I have logged 700,000 steps in these shoes, or 326 miles. They are not wearing out the soles or breaking down in support. Every time I put them on I am thankful I decided on them with the hundreds of brands/styles out there. If I had paid $150 I would be satisfied, so imagine how happy I am after paying $40!

Ive been loyal to another company for the past 20 years, but after getting a bad shoe that lasted only 4 months I decided to try a new company as I didnt like their quality anymore. I went to a local shoe store in search of something new and this was the best comfort I felt, it was also the most well built as far as I could see. Unfortunately they didnt have my exact size, so I did a search and found them on here and also saved some money. I got them in September of 2017, and wore them until November 2017 when I switched to my boots for the long winter season. Started wearing these again in April 2018. So Ive worn them for about 4 months time, and like my last brand these are breaking down and hurting me. The memory foam is gone, parts are coming apart at the seam, and the heel area broke and is slicing me on my right ankle. Hurts to even walk in these things now. I guess for the price they are decent, but they do break very easily and will cause pain. I am no longer buying these but hopefully I can find a shoe that lasts longer than 4 months again.

I bought these shoes a couple of months ago but only recently started wearing them and they are coming apart. The right shoe is coming loose from the sole. Nice little hole opened up where the upper part meets the rubber sole. I did not notice it until I had to walk through some rain, foot was soaked. I bought some expensive shoe glue and glued it up, let it sit overnight but it only lasted a couple of hours. Those gray shapes on the rubber sole are actually thin glued on covers, like caps, I know because on the same shoe some of them are coming off. I am on my feet all day and do a lot of walking but nothing that would stress the shoes out. Quality control issues and they are not good for standing all day, disappointing and not recommended
