All the Skechers I've bought have had synthetic soles that wore out after a few months.
Buy the ones that have goodyear outer soles. Indicated on sole = RED on this one. Online search on Skechers web site has Goodyear listed under Filters.

I hate that shoes don't seem to hold up well. I bought a pair in June for daily use. The soles have worn completely smooth already. granted these were, "cheap" by today's standards at $75, but they get worn 5 days a week usually except for 2 weeks at the beach when they were left at home. No athletic shoes, casual shoes. Dockers made a shoe I loved and had bought 3 pairs that always were comfortable and good wear from them. The last pair I purchased, and it will be the last pair ever of Dockers, the soles worn out in weeks. Literally could rub my finger over it and it would rub off.
Lariat seats though are great for us and I am over 6' and over 200 lbs.
I'm gonna have to ask you NOT TO RUN YOUR ROUGH *** FINGER across my active X seats.🤣

I've just bought what I've seen in stores. But a couple years ago, I bought actual Goodyear-branded boots. The soles on them (listed as "MANMADE") actually leaked water after I wore them a few times. Why do they bother to make shoes you can't even walk through a puddle in?

Forgive me for sounding stupid but what does that do
We called them shoe horns. You put it behind your heel when you're slipping your foot into a shoe so that you don't roll down the back of the shoe and you can get into the shoe easier. If you've ever been to a shoe store that has actual employees, they will often use them when waiting on you.

I’m just waiting for seats


Give them time👠👜
Unless our Mavs can wear them (Michelin branded) let’s save our club for Mavs. Not boots, or Sketchers, not flip flops, not underwear (even if they are made by Goodyear), not shirts, pants, hats (unless Ford branded), etc, etc, etc…..😳

I like the look of that shoe. Maybe a trip to the outlet after all.

Yep! Shoe horn. I have a 2 foot long one (for us older gentlemen) so I don't have to bend over to use one. Keeps us old farts from getting dizzy! Still have to bend over to tie them though, rats.

Those are nice, but I'm more of a Michelin man. Those Goodyear shoes are only guaranteed for 50K miles! The Michelin ones are better on snow and ice and have 70K guarantee!! Hahaha.

If you know where a real shoe store is let me know. Red Wing is the only one around me but even they are pretty much self service now.
