    Sketchers are to footwear as Jimmy Buffett is to music. Nobody you have ever known likes them but somehow they're everywhere and massively successful.

    To answer question.. No. Not cool at all.

    No. They make your feet Stink and give you Cudiys.

    Incorrect, sir. A nudist colony is the last place you should come for fashion advice.

    Nope, a village in Kazakhstan is the last place you should go for fashion advice.

    Sketchers, fedora and sport coat can be a cool, unique look all your own

    Fedoras are awful, remind me of either Harry Anderson or Matt Drudge.

    No, they are not cool.

    Wearing. Those shoes is sort of like shopping in the Men's Department at Macy's, where they have no clothes for men.

    I personally don't like them. But I wear what I like, not what everyone else thinks is cool. Don't be a hipster.

    Sketchers are Jordan's for old white women. Go for it.

    I think you are wrong. Whenever I want to greet m'lady, tipping my fedora is a very classy way to show that I am a gentleman.

    OP my only complaint with sketchers is you won't have enough time to deal with all the hot ass that will be relentlessly thrown at you by the most desirable women.

    Thats right, sketchers are p***y magnets. And if you really want to make the panties drop OP, go for the light up or wheelie pairs. I promise, you won't be able to juggle all the ass that will be thrown on your lap.

    Indeed. When I wear my Sketchers my significant other has to grab a broom to swat away the chicks that are trying to assault me, just like the two 18 year old nude wannabe models that took David Hemmings for a tumble in Blowup. Great flick, by the way. One of Michelangelo Antonioni's best, circa 1966.]

    No, in a van down by the river is the last place you should ask for fashion advice.

    Redditers are like "wth are those Clutchfans ppl talking about?!"

    https://www.reddit.com/r/NoStupidQuestions/comments/3g8urd/in_all_seriousness_who_wears_skechers/

    (FYI, I almost bought some the other day for some cheap shoes to wear to work, but couldn't get my 40% off coupon to work with them... they were too cheap. lol)

    Buy what you want, man. I mean Christ, Vans, Reebok pumps, and Chuck Taylors became popular again after going through a period where you'd be laughed off the block for wearing them.

    I judge people immediately by their shoes.

    Carlos Correa can pull them off quite well.

    I dunno, this looks pretty pimp:

    I have 1 pair of Sketchers that look somewhat similar to this, I bought them because I was at Academy and needed a pair of throw-on outdoor shoes that were comfortable as ****
