I’ve been lucky enough to test some great Skechers walking shoes over my time at Fit&Well.
It’s one of my favorite brands as it makes high-quality shoes at a lower price point than competitors. I love Hoka and Brooks, but those brands cost more.
Plus, while you might be waiting nine months or more for a new release to come on sale, Skechers tends to apply discounts much quicker.
A great example of this is the Aero Spark, which I tested last year, and is now reduced on Amazon by up to 61% for women and 60% for men.
If you didn’t want to pay full price ($145), a discount of $88 might take the sting out of the tail.
Remember that discounts vary on Amazon, so some sizes and colorways may be a little more expensive. Smaller sizes tend to have a better discount than larger sizes, but it's mostly luck of the draw.
Don't forget to flick through all the available colorways to make sure you're getting the best discount for your size. The most significant deals are on the white colorway, but there are a few others, too.
As well as being more affordable, Skechers shoes are some of the most comfortable around, too.
The Aero Spark is a road running shoe with a wedge of bouncy midsole cushioning that takes some of the effort out of running and walking.
If you work long hours on your feet, are exploring a new city on foot or just like to prioritize comfort, this might be the shoe for you.
It has quite a roomy toe box and there are wide-fit options available, so it’s suitable for a variety of foot shapes—something I find other brands don’t cater to as well.
