Wears terribly.  Loved them at first, but they only lasted a couple of months before the leather stretched out and they were floppy/huge and completely unwearable.

Very bad quality. They seem durable and comfortable at first but after just a few times wearing them they started tearing apart from the inside casuing them to be painful

i loved these shoes, loved the price, and they fit great and were super comfortable.

and then after wearing them no more than THREE TIMES the faux-leather (pleather) upper came untucked from the soul/insole and the pleather was stretched out and basically destroyed. and i wasn't even walking, i was sitting on a stool at a house party!

epically disappointed, especially because i bought them BEFORE the price got reduced to $9.99. duuuumb.

When I first got these I thought they were comfortable and nice.

It's been about 6 months and I've worn these maybe 10 times, and washed them about
the same number of times and they are falling apart.

Specifically, the cloth around the elastic waistband wore through at the top and exposed
the elastic.

Something that seems to fall apart by design after such a short time I cannot rate as
acceptable, so I must give these a 1/5, despite the low price ... lower now that when
I bought it, which tells me they knew something was wrong with the design and yet
still sold these trying to get more money than they knew they were worth.

Terrible quality. My little girl LOVED her first pair of Sparkles so I bought these one size up to a Euro26 when she outgrew her previous pair. What a disappointment after the fist pair were so great. The glitter on the straps started peeling immediately, the beads on the toe cap were coming off within two weeks and then the glue on the straps failed. After wearing them about 10 times the lights in one shoe faded 75%. She keeps asking me what is wrong with the shoe. Big fail Skechers! Great product ruined, presumably by cutting costs on materials and manufacture when they became popular. I now buy a local Aussie kids shoe where the owners still have some pride in their brand. Walnut from Melbourne.

DO NOT BUY THESE! Pulled these out of the box and though "I'm going to look successful". Fit was good, a little tight at first but settled in after a few hours. Problem: I had them for a day, went to work and came back with them looking as if I had worn them everyday for about 3 months. The top leather is made so cheaply, it faded and was rubbing off on my pants. Not only that, the entire front creased and made the shoe look funny. Seller was amazing though and is working with me to get a refund. Thanks shoebuy.

Super disappointed. Usually love lucky brand flats. These fit great at first - but wore out terribly after 1-2 weeks. Now they are floppy and I cant keep them on my feet. Upper part of shoe still looks ok but the soles are coming off in multiple spots.  Awful. Very poorly made. Stick to the emmie flats.

I am giving these 3 stars because initially I LOVED them after wearing them twice to dinner, but by the third wearing they have stretched out so bad that I cannot wear them anymore. Unfortunately, the tie in the back is purely decorative and you are unable to make the top tighter to keep them up.  I won't be able to wear these again.

Originally I loved these shoes.  The are very comfortable and seemed like they were really well made.  After a few months of wearing them to work (at a desk, not standing and running around all day) they have started to fall apart.  Kind of discouraging.

Had I paid retail for them I would be really upset.

If you need a pair of shoes that are casual, but look nice, these are a good option.  Just don't expect them to last very long as daily wear.  Sad.

Absolutely beautiful boot. I've often gazed over at these boots with admiration. Unfortunately they have never been very comfortable, and are completely unfit for any sort of hiking or extended walking / standing / working. They required a lengthy break in period and aftermarket insoles before becoming somewhat comfortable.

Upon first receiving these boots I took them on several hiking trips and they were like torture devices for my feet, imparting me with horrible blisters (Obviously they are not advertised as hiking boots, but in the past I used Chippewa's cheaper Apache service boot for various hiking trips with success.) Even now after 1 year of ownership they are still not very comfortable, and leave me with hotspots and discomfort after a day of light use. Part of the issue is the soles, which are made of a very stiff, almost hard plastic material. This provides no cushioning while walking, and is absolutely hazardous in snowy / icy conditions. Very poor traction.

I'd say these boots might be well suited toward an evening on the town, walking from the parking garage to the local speakeasy hipster saloon. I will give them credit for being very well constructed, beautiful, and durable boots. I like to wear them while standing around the campfire, living out my fantasies of being a woodsman. But they are ill-suited to even the slightest bout of physical activity or inclement weather conditions.

Sidenote: Some have mentioned the heel separating from the boot. The heel is a separate piece attached to the sole, but has not shown any signs of loosening or detaching after 1 year of use. However, it does allow bits of grass and sticks to become lodged between the heel and the sole.

I have bought two of these. The first I bought because they looked good, on arriving they fit well and were comfortable so I wore them everywhere. They fell apart within six months. Thinking I had destroyed them by hiking and other activities I ordered a second pair. This one I only wore for short walks. Same result, completely destroyed within six months. Don't buy, not worth it.

Normally I love Brooks shoes, and I loved these when I first got them. However I've had them not quite a year and they already have holes worn in the side fabric and fabric fraying after only 4-6 months of use. I do a lot of walking (work in a hospital) but none of my other Brooks shoes have worn so poorly as these. Very disappointed considering I paid so much for a product that is supposed to be high quality.

I bought these shoes about 3 months ago and I was absolutely in love with the pattern and the fit. Comfortable even after wearing them all day at work. I use these shoes for work, the gym, walking, running, etc. Unfortunately, the shoes are already showing signs of severe wear and tear. The material is torn across the tip of the shoe, fading, and rips in the material in general. The previous pair of sneakers I owned (Nike) lasted me nearly 2 years and had no tears at all. I wanted to love these adidas shoes because they have a pretty good reputation, but they apparently can't handle how much I use my shoes, haha.

I originally bought these years ago and loved them. They lasted 2 years of constant use. They were wonderful and I absolutely got my $50 worth ((I originally bought them in a mall shoe store NOT amazon). Once they finally started wearing out I bought my second pair here on Amazon since they seem to be harder to find these days. 6 months later and the heal has cracked on one of them and they are now completely useless. I've gotten more wear out of $10 wally world sneakers. I am completely disappointed and expect much better quality from sketchers. I WILL NOT be buying these again.

The slippers were love at first sight for my boyfriend... they were cozy warm, had a soft foot bed, and great traction on the sole. If we had written a review on day one, it would have been a five star review. However, we are three weeks in and the slippers have been worn *maybe* a dozen times and the lining is matted and ripping apart. The footbed/insert is sticking through the lining at the heels. For the amount of money charged on these they should not be falling apart after being used so little. What a huge disappointment. Steer clear ... I suspect all the stellar reviews are from people who have worn these slippers only once or twice.

Did not hold up after less than 10 wears.
Would not repurchase

Fits as expected, but not great quality. Soles wore loose after two months wearing them. Heel sole peeled lose as well as the toe soles. I had to duct tape them to prolong the wear. Also, no zipper down the side makes putting them on a little annoying, but I knew that by looking closely at the pictures. That's my fault.

Update: now completely worn out. The toe and heel have separated from the rest of the shoe and duct tape no longer fixed it. Shame
