Dear MNers,

Is anyone able to please find these exact trainers in either navy (ideally) or black in a size 6 (adult women's). Bought them on ebay previously and wrnt back this year to get them but they ballsed up and now refunded the navy size 6. I cannot buy the black showing as no means to buy and buyer not replying.

Not getting anywhere with Skechers or Vinted. DD is VERY specific to say the least. Massive thanks to anyone who tries to help, truly!

I love my Skechers and have the same pair in all the colours! Glad we were able to all help. @Captivatingcapybara

This is probably a long shot - but have you tried contacting the Skechers outlet/clearance stores?

There will be more than the ones I know:
Affinity Staffordshire
Affinity Lancashire
York Designer Outlet
McArthur Glen West Midlands
McArthur Glen Bridgend

Perhaps others know more?

These are pretty much my go-to shoes, I've had them from mandmdirect as mentioned earlier, and sportsdirect

Spent 9 hours a day on my feet until recently. Swear by Sketchers.

I've used MandM a few times - for Skechers dunnily enough. They're really good and a bit of a secret.

The best way to know exactly what trainers they are is to look inside the tongue on the shoe and there is the code number. At the very bottom of the label it will also say M, Y, for the month and year of manufacture. The code number helps track them down more easily.

The issue with Skechers is they turn out new designs all the time and tweak the soles etc so if you love them, get as many pairs as possible in that style with that code.

Ds is gutted as his most comfortable Skecher has been "upgraded" sole wise and he hates the slip ins. I agree they are an incredibly comfortable trainer. I have about 8 pairs plus their sandals.

My Dd has the Sketchers slip ins, she’s autistic and dyspraxic, she loves them because there are no laces to tie. I’d recommend them if the others don’t work out for you

Shoe Zone sell Skechers and if you have a Boyes near you they do, well the one in Swansea does.
