January has kicked off with retailers cutting prices to help you stay within budget on shopping and if you are looking for a good pair of trainers that don’t put pressure on your knees and back, there’s one in the Debenhams sale that might tick the boxes off.
The Skechers Ultra Flex 3.0 Smooth Slip-ins Knitted Trainers, currently on 40% off at £53.40 instead of £89 at Debenhams. The shoes were described as “in demand” on Marks and Spencer website, where they retail at £59.
Known for their comfort, these trainers feature a slip-on design and flexible stretch knit material that reviewers say “hug your feet”. For those who spend a lot of time on their feet, the trainers include a Comfort Pillow in the heel and an Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole for support and cool comfort.
Available in black colour with sizes ranging from UK3 to UK8 – they’re expected to sell out quickly, as reported by Belfast Live. With a high 4.8 average rating from 1,300 reviews, it’s clear why these knitted trainers are popular, with customers describing them as “like walking on clouds” and great for post-surgery.
One satisfied customer remarked: “Like walking on clouds. Thrilled with these. Super comfortable, I already know the second I’ve worn them out I’ll replace them again and again and again.”
Another commented: “I knew I would have difficulty getting shoes on after surgery and actually bought them to wear inside the house as slippers. They were perfect for the job particularly in the early period when putting stress on my knee was difficult – being able to just slide the foot in was perfect. Extremely comfortable and now seven weeks in they have hardly been off my feet.”
A shopper effused: “Went to Thailand and brought these shoes to wear and they never let me down. Walked up stairs, pathways, outdoor markets and restaurants – they held up perfectly on my 21-hour flight through Istanbul and my feet were comfortable.”
Another happy customer reported: “It’s like walking on air! Have to be careful with my footwear and someone kindly gifted me these for Christmas. I am very pleased. ” However, one reviewer said: “I had a hard time getting them on. Top part kept tucking in.”
Another Debenhams buyer mentioned a potential issue: “Lovely shoe, pity it doesn’t come in half size.” For those intrigued, Skechers Ultra Flex 3.0 Smooth Slip-ins Knitted Trainers are currently available in the Debenhams sale here.
