Bought a pair of Sketchers Shapeups ...worn sparingly only over 5 occasions. Shocked to find the soles crumbling and disintegrating!! Have never experienced this in my life with my other shoes! Contacted Sketchers and they said this is normal wear and tear. Normal?? The tracks of the soles are almost pristine , which proves no hard wearing . Paid a good RM399 for the shoes and they said that this is normal!! I am seriously doubting the quality of the shoes from Sketchers as this does not happen to other brands that I own.
Anyone else experienced this before???

probably old stocks? but damn...literally reput.

expired.....

Old stocks. That's y

That's horrible! My family has like 3-4 pair of Skechers shoes and all of them are great and definitely not something like that. I suggest you contact higher authority if possible

I got the same 1... in white... also same case.. banned them

I have complained to both local and US Sketcher. They never admitted that these were old stocks, just normal wear and tear. Wanted to compensate by giving me a 35% discount voucher. What??? To dump more money into useless Sketcher shoes?? Real crooks!!

Did u buy and wear it, but after that you left it for a long time unused?

same thing happened to me about 5-6 years ago. in US, just disintegrated. wrote them letters but no response at all. went right on the "do not buy" list, ever at any price

Wear sparingly....similar to my other brands of shoes, but none of the others turned up like this.

I suspect , then, that they are dumping old stocks into Malaysia market. Of course, they will not admit to this...

can go to tribunal for refund. but must have proof of receipt. cost for tribunal rm5 only plus your time

Thought about that, but unfortunately can't find the receipt. My point is not so much on the refund, but what type of quality shoes are Sketchers dumping to the locals and fleecing them off?? Any reputable brand will have strict quality standards plus good after sales support.. not try to fleece the consumers further with discount coupons for future purchase.

yeah. agree with you. this shows they are dumping old stocks here. thanks for sharing TS. will put in blacklisted brand

Yes, he should have eaten them before they went bad.

Dont buy skechers dah.i never minat their products and the price huh
My sportscience friends said the best shoes is reebok (back to 2011)...

Found something new on Sketchers - they were fined $40 million for false claims on their ShapeUps! Now it starts to make sense that they were dumping these shoes in our market!

Aiyoh...be more diplomatic la.....hurt my feelings...... 60kg fat??

Even POWER shoes aren't as terrible lol.

The design of these shoes are actually very good for walking but does not last long. My wife went for long walks on vacation wearing these shoes and never complain a bit unlike other shoes she had. This is a very old design.
