Review on Skechers Womens DLites Lace Up Sneaker Women's Shoes : Athletic by Dee Duran

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Perfect for all feet

I usually wear size 8.5 and bought the same size. These shoes fit perfectly. I used to wear Sketchers D'lites, only in their black and white style. After buying 3 identical pairs in a row I wanted a different style. After years of wearing shoes that never fit me, I'm going back to what I know: Sketchers D'lites. I bought a gray pair and they look exactly like the pictures in the original post. The reason I give "perfect" shoes, 4 starts with 5, is because the memory foam insole was inserted at an angle and was wrinkled as a result. which wouldn't be a problem if I couldn't feel it, but I could, so it was a problem. The insoles are fairly easy to remove. So if you wear orthotics or just prefer to make your own, they are easy to remove. I was able to put the insoles back in place and after standing in them for a few hours (I'm a personal trainer at the gym and am on my feet all day) the insoles lay a little more evenly but I can still feel where the crease was. . It doesn't bother my legs so not worth returning. Speaking of shipping, I have Revain Prime and although they were supposed to be received in 2 days, they were received in 4 days. What I have found is that if you order before 12pm on Wednesday, the products will be delivered within a 2 day window. Coming back to the shoes, they were laced with white laces and included an extra pair of gray ones which I didn't wear as the white ones offer the best contrast in my opinion. These shoes are perfect for literally any foot width. Most women know at least one movie called The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. The story is based on 1 pair of pants and 4 girls. Everyone has a different body type, but 1 pair of pants fits everyone perfectly. The same seems to apply to these shoes. I have narrow to medium wide feet and a colleague has very wide feet. She went to a convention showcasing a different brand and returned with two pairs as they were "aimed at women with wider feet." I liked 1 pair enough but not enough to buy them. I let her try on my D'lites and she was in love and literally said she would try to return the other two pairs she bought and definitely buy a pair of Sketchers D'lites. We agreed that Sketchers is much more convenient. I prefer shoes that don't rub the sides of my ankles. They are so low around this bone that they never rub. I prefer shoes that don't chafe with the Achilles tendon at the back ankle. They are sewn well and don't rub at all. I prefer shoes with wider toes to keep my toes pinched. These definitely have it. I don't care about memory foam. The first pair I bought a few years ago didn't come with this so I wasn't looking forward to it. The problem with memory foam in shoes is that over time the memory foam will flatten out and become no longer comfortable. Since I tend to put a lot of miles in my boots, I'll probably need another pair at this point, but if not, I'll put on a pair of insoles. I love the blue pair that comes in a black box but that's based on my unique gait. If you're looking for the "perfect" shoe, you've found it, so look no further. Just choose your favorite color(s).
