The older I get the more I realize that my mom was right about a lot of things, including her opinion that Skechers makes the most comfortable sneakers.
Are Skechers trendy? It depends on who you ask. But can they survive 10,000 steps at Disney World without creating foot pain? Yes!
For that reason, it's time we all stop sleeping on Skechers sneakers.
After New Balance 574s left my feet sore for days following a previous theme park visit, my mom offered up a pair of her Skechers sneakers and I reluctantly accepted.
I'm glad I did, because 8+ hours and 10K steps later, my feet weren't sore, achey, or blistered, nor did my feet wince as I slipped them on the next morning for my second Disney day.
Skechers' all-day comfort is all thanks to their support features, including breathable cooling insoles, shock-absorbing cushioning, contoured footbeds with crucial arch support, and lightweight constructions.
Upon first glance, Skechers don't look all that different from Asics, Hokas, Nikes, and other popular sneaker brands. And with several styles coming in at less than $100, they're an affordable option that prioritizes comfort and support above all else.
