Don't like the white and won't purchase.

@KingstonsMom   I think they start out ugly.   White soles are just glaring color (if white is a color) out of nowhere, totally detracts from any outfit.

I only buy the white sole shoes if it's on a light colored summer shoe, and if it's really, really marked down. Otherwise I want a dark color sole. So I pass on many, many of their styles and colors because how many black Skechers can one person wear.

@queendiva Yes, Skechers makes somewhat dressy shoes, at least they are not sneakers --  what they sometimes call "ballet flats" and others.  But I can get only gray or black because otherwise the soles are glaring white.   Sooooooo annoying.

@grandma r   And women too now!

[janesilver]

@ALRATIBA  Yes, on sneakers (you mention laces) they are at least not so out-of-place.

@SilleeMee Yes, that is exactly what I'm talking about too.   Different strokes, right?  Thanks for your perspective.

JaneSilver:  You're not the only one...........I've been secretly thinking the same.

Especially with Fall/Winter shoes.  Would like dark grey or black soles on the Fall/Winter styles.  White soles seem 'Summer-y' to me.

Those white soles on anything but white shoes or Chuck Taylor sneakers are just plain ugly and they ruin the look of many an otherwise beautiful shoe. Hopefully this fashion trend will pass soon.

@Buffalogal47   Yes!   So many shoes that I really like except for the ugly white soles.   Whose idea was this?  Are we playing tennis or what?
