Skechers walking sandals with 6,000+ 5-star reviews get 26% price drop

When searching for the ideal summer sandals to explore a new city or tackle a staycation coastal trail in sweltering temperatures, comfort is key. Skechers is well known for its springy, lightweight and supportive footwear that’s frequently complimented for feeling like ‘walking on clouds’, and we’ve spotted a bargain on Amazon that sees its On The Go 600Sport sandals slashed by 26%.

Available in a variety of neutral shades, the On The Go sandals have been reduced from £54 to £39.98 in black, black textile, beige and navy textile trim, coming in sizes one to 11 wide. Crafted with lightweight, responsive 5Gen cushioning, the Skechers feature a Goga Max high rebound insole designed to deliver ‘maximum comfort’, while the strappy river-style design offers ample support and should keep the sandal firmly in place.

The sandals boast a soft heathered fabric upper, which should help keep feet cool during warmer spells, rather than leather which can often be sweaty and rub — a quality that one enthusiastic reviewer highlighted, noting: “Absolutely love these sandals. Has taken me a while to find a pair that I can wear when my feet swell in the really hot weather, these are so comfy that I’m not aware I have them on my feet.”

They went on to say: “I can adjust the strap too and perfect for wide feet, which I seem to struggle to find sandals for the wider foot. I can also wash them, which is great.”

Another shopper revealed how they experienced no blisters whatsoever during their first outing while exploring Italy: “I bought these for a summer trip to Rome where I wanted to look cute and be comfortable, and these helped my feet to survive all the walking, not a single blister or sore! Very sturdy and will use again for my next trip,” reports Wales Online.

The sandals’ strappy design is a popular one for travellers and holidaymakers alike as numerous high street retailers are stocking similar style across various colours and prints.

For instance, the Passenger Women’s Venice Roam Sandal, £27.97 reduced from £39.95, feature a River design incorporating blue, green and apricot straps, while its sole provides excellent traction for trail exploration.

It’s also available in a teal and pink option and classic ‘faded denim’ finish.

Those seeking something more jazzy can purchase the Regatta Zebra print Women’s Lady Vendeavour Sandal for £17.50, reduced from £35. Crafted with a water-friendly soft, moulded EVA foam outsole, they’re ideal for trekking and discovering fresh destinations.

They’re also offered in five additional vibrant shades.

Though for those preferring something effortless to coordinate with multiple ensembles, the Skechers On the Go 600sport sandal is an excellent choice thanks to its neutral shades that’ll go with everything. With over 6,000 five star reviews and a 4.5 star rating, it’s evident customers are in agreement.

One customer shared a glowing review in which they stated: “I have flat feet and suffer with plantar fasciitis from time to time, so wearing comfortable shoes is really important. I have always struggled to find comfortable sandals that are not ugly.

“I find that orthopaedic or comfy sandals are not fashionable and are marketed towards older ladies, and as a female under 30, I want sandals to suit my style.

“I have some Skecher trainers which are great, so I thought I’d give these sandals a go. I have the plain black ones, are they the prettiest sandals I’ve ever owned? No, but I think they look nicer in person and are cuter looking than most orthopaedic sandals on the market.

“They are very light, which will be handy when it comes to carrying them in a bag/case.

“Light on the feet also, the sole is padded and cushioned, which will help absorb impact as well as having little ridges which will help feet not to slip should they be wet or worse, sweaty.”

They added: “The straps are sturdy, feet feel secure and don’t feel like they will rub or blister.”

Their only request? “I wish there was a buckle to tidy up the fastener strap, as it will stick up. I think the price is a bit high for what they are but what choice do you have if you need comfort. Overall good comfortable sandal.”

Someone else loved the sandals so much they’ve got multiple: “So good I have 3 pairs in different colours! Cannot recommend these life changers enough. They support your feet as they should in all of the ways that they should, as well as being soft and squishy, comfortable to wear for all day use, every day! They are easy to adjust the straps, and have got a good amount of grip on the bottom as well.”

For a handful of buyers, the fit was slightly problematic, with one shopper noting they weren’t wide enough — though it is worth highlighting that wider sizing options are available.

They remarked: “Very nice, also true to size, but unfortunately very narrow sandals. Usually, Skechers shoes, trainers, etc. fit perfectly fine. These sandals I had to return. I think they can be just perfect for someone with narrow feet.”

Another shopper deducted stars owing to the sizing running small, commenting: “Nice sandals but they were too small, so had to return them, (It took nearly two weeks for my refund to my Amazon account). I re-ordered but had to choose a different colour as these ones were not available in my size.”

On the whole, the vast majority of shoppers were thoroughly satisfied with their Skechers purchase, as reflected in this glowing five-star review: “Bought these for a holiday which included a lot if walking and they are fantastic.

“Very light and comfortable. I always get blisters when I get new shoes or sandals and I didn’t get one in these. Worn 11 days everyday 15,000 steps a day not one sore area. Brilliant.”
