Do you feel like all the Sketchers look alike? They are mostly knit and washable. To me they all look alike anymore.

That's just the way the Skechers brand is styled. Mostly fabric shoes with memory foam soles. I never buy shoes from Q because it means taking a chance with fit and then needing to pay for returns, but I think today's TSV is so cute and looks amazingly comfortable. I'm hoping that the higher vamp and stretchy fabric mean I will not walk out of the shoe. I'm in FL and will wear this slip-on with leggings in our cooler winter months when I don't want to wear sandals. I don't always like my ugly senior toes hanging out of shoes.

Yes there is resemblance in them but they are a comfy sneaker, IMO. I have several colors and mainly wear them when on vacation. Though I do have a couple of pairs that I wear more often. I like the ones without the laces.

@KCDiva I do, but that's pretty much what I think about so much of everything and I am not thinking just of QVC. That feeling I am sure is what makes it easy for me to be comfortable shopping my own closets and dressers instead of adding another piece of almost the same item but with a small detail or color difference.

In 2020, I shopped the first two months thinking I was going to travel later in the year. Go 10 months and in January and February of 2021, once again I bought a few things but less than last year. Can't imagine seeing any must haves for the rest of the year.

The brand has a varity of styles. I have a few of the others. I love a pair I have that look sort of like a boat shoe. The Q sells a lot of the slip ons because that what sells best.

I just learned that I don't have to go back into the office. I'll still go into occasional in person meetings, off sites, etc, but I'll work from most of the time. QVC is appealing to appeal who are dressing in more causual styles.

I really like Sketchers. They do look the same but there are slight differences in some of the styles.

Is it just me or is the price of these shoes a bit high? With shipping they would be well over $60. I can't justify spending that for these shoes, especially because for Go Walks I've had in the past, they stretch out if you walk in them a lot.

No, I don't care for these at all. They don't look like they have a lot of support either. And the price is not that low. I go to the sketchers store all the time for sales, and can get the same thing anytime. I just spent almost $100 on the Max cushion elite sneakers, and they are worth every penny.

Sketchers has so many different styles and maybe not carried here but they are definitely not all the same!

I feel the same way about the go walks. There great for maybe wearing around the house. But for longer walks, they lack support.

I wouldn't even wear them to walk around a mall or grocery store.

I love Skechers and have to admit I have well over a dozen pair. I am on waitlist for the olive TSV. So cute!

Seems like they do all look very similar. Those knit shoes are everywhere. I remember when Skechers sold real leather shoes and they were more stylish than the ones they have now yet the prices for the knit ones now cost the same as the leather ones did when they had them.

I put them in the same class as house slippers, certainly not walking shoes. They offer zero support for the foot and are not comfortable for lots of walking. They fit me poorly, gaping, and slipping on the heel when I walk.

How many times this year has Sketchers been a TSV? The brand is on here a lot. I find them often at Marshals.

I do too. They are much cheaper at Marshall's and Sam's Club.

@liliblu, I live in their boat shoes. I have four or five of them.

Love the look and ease of wear of Skechers.

I own multiple pairs of Skechers and none of them look like the TSV. QVC seems to push one style.

DH & I both wear Sketchers but I will not buy any of their shoes with white soles because you can NOT clean the dirt off once they get dirty, they stay black or dark brown.

Also the mule style I used to buy now has a longer tounge and left small burises on the front of both ankles even though I ordered my true size.

I like their shoes with thinner black soles and got 3 pair here at QVC last year. DH wears a lace up style that we got here also. Very happy with both.

Thanks JackhoundMom. I own 3 pair of Sketchers all with white bottoms. Bought them last year. None have ever been washed (didn't say in the discription that they were washable). I haven't worn them but a few times to run errands and a couple of appointments. Decided I would wash them. You are so right the white bottoms and anywhere dirt was on the sides don't get cleaned. I washed them on cold gentle cycle.

Now I am re-thinking my advanced order.
