Skechers sizing and is this the real deal?

I am usually size 5 shoes and have very wide feet. With skecher trainers, should I just order a size 5?

Also, I have found these heavily discounted. Do you think they're the real deal? www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEU-SKECHERS-Women-Sneakers-Trainers-Sport-Shoes-SHAPE-UPS-STRENGTH-Black-/151041868073?clk_rvr_id=484635147481

I can't advise whether they're genuine or not (although seller has reasonable feedback status), but I've always found Skechers to be true to size. I have average width size 6 feet and Skechers 6 are great.

I am size 6 and wear a skechers size 5.5 so would say you should be safe with a 5 if you're a 5!

I walk MILES in these shoes every week, they are absolutely fab, like walking on air. I have wide feed and am a 6. I wear size 6 in Skechers, laced up tightly, and they are fine, but I agree with the above poster that you could go a half size down. Look on Amazon for discounted Skechers if you're unsure with ebay. I don't think Skechers make this style any more so they are being heavily discounted by other sellers.

I have those exact Sketchers (in black and white) and the picture doesn't look quite like mine.

I don't know if the design has changed over the past year or so, but there's something about them that just doesn't match up.

A 5 would probably be fine, I think.

I would say mine are true to size, - they felt half a size too big when I first tried them on but now I have got used to them they just feel very comfy (though I haven't got used to the ugliness unfortunately!)

Re Skechers flex Memory Foam Flighty - bought usual size 7 (after checking Skechers size chart). Shoes too big and fall off feet - can't wear them. Should have returned them but tried insoles etc-so can't send back. Would be interested to know people's experience of Skechers sizing.

I find them slightly on the large size. I'm usually a 7 but their (uk) size 7 trainers were much too big.
(Same is true for kids sizes I find).

Unicorn81 · 03/08/2017 15:11

Yeah they are big. Im a 7 in everything apart from them, go down a size. Also for bargains they have some outlet shops and also schuh do deals too

Glowerglass · 03/08/2017 15:14

Slightly big I think. But also the go walk are fabric with a lot of give so they are more forgiving if you have bought a bit small.

PersianCatLady · 03/08/2017 15:14

The Skechers in the link that you posted scream fake to me but I could be wrong.

Floralnomad · 03/08/2017 15:19

I find they come up big , I would usually buy a 7 but have a 6 in the Go Walks and they are plenty big enough.

il0vew1ne · 03/08/2017 16:09

I am a 6 and ordered a 5 and a 6, I sent the 6 back they come up big.
