As a personal trainer, fitness instructor and walking enthusiast, I spend a lot of time on my feet. I am often asked what shoes I'd recommend, whether it's for gym classes, everyday use, or walking long distances. A brand I often recommend is Skechers.
Without doubt, Skechers are one of the most comfortable brands out there, in fact they make one of the best orthopaedic trainers . Not only that, but they're stylish too. Skechers have a wide range of products, from trainers to boots, slippers to flip-flops, but they all offer great support and are comfortable to wear for long periods. They even have an entire range dedicated to arch support trainers. I have wide feet, and I find Skechers particularly great for me. They're also good for many common foot issues, including being one of the best trainers for plantar fasciitis.
In fact, I love Skechers so much I've rounded up the best deals from across the internet, below. This page will be updated on a regular basis, so if you love trainers as much as I do, be sure to bookmark it and keep checking back to see what's new!
Best Skechers deals on trainers
AmazonThe classic Skechers trainer, these are ideal if you have a job where you need to be on your feet all day. My dental nurse swears by them! They're extremely comfortable, and cushiony soles mean they protect your feet from the pain of standing for long hours. They come in a variety of colours, but I do think the navy blue is a great choice.
AmazonI'm obsessed with these trainers, and they're in my basket to buy! Again, they come in a wide range of colours, but this green pair will look great with jeans or leggings, and even a skirt in the spring.
They have - like all Skechers trainers - a cushiony sole, but they look so on-trend, and a lot more expensive than they are. At the moment, Amazon have these for around £40, giving a large saving off the £64.99 RRP.

If you do a lot of walking, and especially if you need extra arch support, then the Skechers Go Walk needs to be your shoe of choice. They are super lightweight, making movement a breeze, and they come with removable arch support. They're also vegan. I love the lace style in the classic black.

If a chunky trainer is more your thing, take a look at the D'Lites. Definitely a statement trainer, these will look great with jeans. some chunky trainers can be hard and unforgiving but these have a memory foam sole for ultra comfort so you don't need to choose between style and comfort.

If you have any issues with bending to get shoes on, these Skechers slip-ins are great. They do a whole range, in various styles and colours, but these lovely lilac ones are on sale right now. Instead of the awkward bending, and having to pull the back heel on, you simply slide your feet straight into these.

Sophisticated, yes, but also insanely comfortable! These Cleo's can pass as shoes but feel much more like a trainer thanks to the soft memory foam insole. The small wedge heel will ad a touch of glam to any outfit, ensuring they can be worn for casual or formal occasions.

These Mary-Jane shoes are perfect if you need extra support as the velcro strap holds the foot snugly in position. They're also great if you have dexterity issues, such as arthritis, which can make trying laces difficult. The leather upper gives a smart and also practical element, and of course there's the memory foam insole for comfort.

Want to grab a great Skechers deal but unsure what to opt for? We've got all your FAQ's answered below, to help you decide.
Do you size up or down in Skechers?
Skechers generally run true to size, which is a blessing! They are designed to be comfortable, so if you pop a pair on and they feel roomy, I'd suggest walking around in them a little bit first. Are they actually too big, or are they just looking after your feet in a way that good shoes are meant to? If ordering online, you can also download a size guide from Skechers to use at home.
Do Skechers run wide or narrow?
A lot of Skechers shoes come in two different widths, medium (or standard) and wide. I have wide feet and honestly that wide fitting is a joy. There's so many shoes from other brands that I just can't consider. So I'd say they're true to width as well as size.
Are Skechers good for your feet?
Skechers have a vast range of shoes and styles, and also a lot of different technology. They really are a good quality brand that care about feet! They're designed to be supportive and ultra comfortable, but the type of Skechers you need will depend on the type of support you need, such as arch support, hands free slip ons, memory foam insoles and so on.
