My new Skechers

Thank you for the suggestion - but if I lie on the bed I tend to go to sleep! ? ?

I recently discovered these Skechers because I wanted something cooler but with a thick sole, they are so comfy.

I have always had too wide feet and resorted to Db shoes, they are so not pretty and I hate velcro straps. I never tried sketchers, am going to order a pair right now. I wear light canvas trainers indoors, was told they were the safest option, to stay on my feet

Maw thank you for sharing. I have ordered my first ever sketchers

ellesse they look very comfy!
My arms have shortened too. My annual treat is a luxury pedicure to prepare my feet for 'coming out' for the summer. I enjoy it so much. I only wish I could do it myself the way I used to. Oh well. Onwards.

I swear by Cotton Traders for walking shoes and sandals, nice wide fitting and so comfortable. At the last count it was 10 pairs of sandals in a variety of colours/styles, and two pairs of sturdy walking shoes.

I always used to buy Hotter but I think they changed the fitting a few years ago. I have had some Skechers but have changed to Pavers now.

I have worn almost nothing but Skechers since having plantar fasciitis, apart from some more reasonable imitations from Caravelle, which are just as comfy. I have found the cheapest Skechers are on Ebay or Sports Direct on line.

I agree about Hotters. Although I accept that my feet might have changed too!
But their styling is way off these days. Tempted by the recent 30% off offer I searched in vain for something I actually LIKED .
About 10 -12 years ago their styling was way better -and more tempting - and I became known as Mrs Marcos to my Hermes delivery lady.

I have shoe envy! I take size 2 and have very little choice. I've tried children's department but not found anything suitable, also find children's size 2 uncomfortable, maybe made using a different last? I can get a limited number on Pavers. Any other Gransnetters with small feet found a good source please share.
Shops on line specializing in small sizes either horrendously expensive or with sky scraper heels.

I reach my feet by sitting on a chair with my feet up on the end of my bed - if you see what I mean!

I have Skechers as slippers/house shoes, for comfort, but find that they wear out far too quickly for any serious walking. Merrells trainers are my favourite for those long daily dog walks. I used to be always barefoot indoors - but the 'padding' on our soles seems to disappear when we're older.

(and) the Ikea Omsorg £1 long shoehorn is brilliant!

Thank you for the info Maw. I have ordered two pairs and some socks. I have had a pair of well worn Go Walk shoes for years and I don’t know why I haven’t bought more as they are so comfortable to wear. .

Hear hear- I use mine all the time!
Can also double as a backscratcher - multipurpose!

Not showing off but we have one upstairs and one downstairs.

I have a Lakeland spider catcher upstairs and one downstairs. Eat your heart out Kitty!?

Fill yer boots!
I have a handheld Dyson upstairs and a Shark downstairs (it was a fairground goldfish, but it growed)

I like sketchers too but I find the rip off sainsburys version just fine too and buy in the sale for £7 wherever possible )

? Maw. We’ve been thinking about upstairs and downstairs hoovers but as long as him indoors is able and willing to do the hoovering and lug the blasted thing about ..,

I have a pair of Sketchers (bought before I realised they were old lady shoes ?) and although they're super comfy, I've got planter faciitis and the Sketchers make it worse. I'm much better wearing my firm biker boots.

I've had my 2 pairs of Sketchers for many years. one pair for inside as slippers, the other, laceups, for outside.
Before I found them my footwear, mostly leather, caused multiple corns and other problems.
They've helped to keep me on my feet, still plodding around.

This thread makes me smile every time I see the title, simply because of the thought of people having comfortable feet. ❤️

I like Sketchers, the styles I have are definitely not old ladies one's. I also have biker boots and they are comfortable as well.

Well I have just bought another Four pairs - white, coral, grey mix and a pair of black with black soles for later in the year or with black trousers.
They are half the price of Hotters and just so comfortable, feeling as light as a pair of thick socks! .
