Skechers Men's Seige Lace Looped Oxford Reviews

• Don't be an idiot.

  
  By A3KZCNV1N8R9GC on 2006-12-12
  These shoes are made distressed. The streaks and smudges are "stylish".
  
  If you want a shiny new unblemished looking shoe, don't get these.
  
  

• Deception

  
  By A34CZ1HIBSPKVJ on 2006-11-06
  I bought this sneakers because I considered Skechers a big reliable brand. I was so mistaken... I have owned them for 2 and a half months and the sole is already worn out and one of them has even a small hole in it. I am not much of a sportsman y I use them only for work (at the office). I have had similar sneakers from another leading brand for more than five years now. You see, I am not like a "shoe-destroyer" or something.
  Conclusion: first and last time I buy from Skechers
  
  

• Read!!! Product Features

  
  By A2BJ59SH8R6KPW on 2006-12-20
  Reading product features --
  "Stone color is distressed for a worn in look and feel"
  
  Yes, the picture does not reflect this. Although doing a little research at Sketchers' website, you will find that their picture represents the product a whole lot better.
  
  Personally I didn't read the part where it says distressed, but who can pass up a bargain like this. Either distressed or not, these shoes would look like that in a few weeks anyways. They are shoes.
  
  

• Extremely unhappy

  
  By A2HPOPIYD4806E on 2006-12-12
  I experienced the exact same problem with my order as the lady who posted ahead of me. The shoes arrived extremely dirty and distressed, like they had been left out in the rain. I contacted Amazon's customer service, told them about the problem, and they immediately agreed to ship another pair free of charge. The new pair arrived looking exactly the same as the first pair and I am livid. I will be returning both pairs of shoes and insisting on a refund.
  
  

• DISTRESSED LOOK SHOULD BE SHOWN IN PICTURES

  
  By A22N3MU8RQC8S3 on 2006-12-14
  Hey, if these shoes are supposed to have the 'distressed' look, then it needs to be displayed on the picture and told in the description! Like the other two kind ladies who gave their review, I too, received the pair with black streaks and they looked filthy. I didn't expect that so I returned them and although I want to get another replacement, I see that the other woman ordered a pair and got the same streaks again on her second reordered pair so I'm hesitant to proceed with another order. I too will be pursuing a full refund for these shoes.
  
  
• Nice looking (but definitely pre-distressed)
  By A1DE3TZ1SASGI7 on 2006-12-19
  I like these shoes and they look & feel great (especially for $20.90). But the other reviewers are definitely right in that they come out of the box with black "distress" mark son the sand or cream colored leather. While it's disappointing that the pictures don't clearly show that, the marks are applied way too evenly and carefully to not be intentional. I still think they look good, but if you want a "clean" looking shoe, this might not be the one.
  
  
• Color is darker than Amazon's photos
  By A1DI7VLX2E7KOW on 2006-12-29
  The color of the pair I received is slightly different from the photo. I was hoping for a light cream/tan color, but instead it's light brown. If you google-image search these shoes, you'll see that most of the pics out there are more representative of the actual product than Amazon's. I saw those pics beforehand so I wasn't surprised when I got my shoes, but still a little disappointed. Other than that... the fit is good, the size is standard (unlike some manufacturers), the sole is thin but surprisingly comfortable. I don't know if this shoe will actually last a year before falling apart, but whatever. Worth my $20 bucks.
  
  UPDATE: I've been walking in them every day for a year and a half, and they're in great condition. Still surprisingly comfortable, too. I've been going on long walks recently (1-hour, give or take) without any discomfort.
  
  
• Awesome for 20 bucks
  By AWE98CMHS5NE5 on 2007-02-25
  Great buy for 20 bucks. They look nice and fit well. They are distressed but it is not as bad as I thought it would be from reading the other reviews. They look nice with jeans and a dark shirt. Pretty comfy too.
  
  
• Not the same QUALITY
  By A11Z1ICYVX5FGA on 2007-03-08
  SHOES WAS NOT EXCALTY THE SAME AS PIC SHOWN ON WEB SITE IT WAS KIND OF USED...
  
  
• Not bad!
  By A34TW5SBWMG23J on 2006-11-10
  I got the shoe delivered on-time.The quality is really nice and it's comfortable....The only drawback is that it has started getting a shade of white at one or two places on the leather but it was written in the brochure that they send you along with the shoes that the leather may get a white shade sometimes...So, I don't feel cheated as I already knew about it beforehand...Overall a SMART shoe..
  
  
• Seige Lace Looped
  By A2KJWR99R90CMA on 2006-12-08
  Just got these and they are very comfortable and look better in person than on the picture. We'll see how well they hold up to wear, but from first impression and from trying them on I'm very happy especially for the price.
  
  It seems like they don't lace up as high as most athletic shoes so they a very comfortable and slip on and off easily even while still tied.
  
  
• Misleading Color
  By A3OCE7RDZBJGMQ on 2006-12-08
  I bought the Stone color as a gift and was a bit taken back when I received them and opened the box. The shoes have black streakish marks across them on all the cream areas...almost as if they were broken in and distressed for you. Since the picture of the shoe does not show them to be that way I am unsure if it is just my pair or all of them. I would prefer them not to have the "marks" all over them. Oh well :(
  
  
• I like them but NOT accurate picture
  By A2RY4GIW3YI8FC on 2006-12-22
  They are nice shoes, I bought them knowing they wouldnt look like the picture from other comments. They have more a yellowish brown color to them. They have scuff marks on them... Its the look.. kind of like a worn or used look.. (Just think of ripped jeans) they are nice and i will wear them. I looked at the pics after i bought them and the only pic that you can barely see one of the scuffs is the picture of the back of the shoe showing the heal... I paid $20
  
  
  
• For $20, Can't Go Wrong
  By A3FW4EZ0BANVZY on 2006-12-27
  As people mentioned before, ths shoe does have the 'distressed' look. If you zoom in on the pictures Amazon has, you can notice it. But they probably vary from shoe to shoe, so yours could have fewer marks, or more. Nothing wrong with them though, the marks will probably fade from being rubbed from normal use I'm guessing, since they seem to be surface marks and might fade from being worn and have more of a 'real' broken in look. I think they look fine with the marks, my pants I'd be wearing these with will probably cover most of the marks anyways. Only qualm I have his that the shoe doesn't seem to be good for heavy duty wear. I another pair of Skechers I have had for years and love, and was hoping to find the same quality in these, but not to be the case. Doesn't have that same feel, but still $20, not bad. I'd also mention there isn't much of an arch, but slipping in my Dr Scholl's will solve the problem. I'd also mention the extremely good service by Amazon. Order around midnight the 25th, and got it midday the 27th!
  
  
• Out of season design
  By A13ZQ7P7PZUPTY on 2006-12-29
  When I checked these shoes in a store they said these were previous season designs...
  
  it could be so but these shoes are really comfortable and very unique.. They look much better in person than off the net....
  
  
  
  
• Unbeatable for the price
  By A1T1PBDVIKARK0 on 2007-01-02
  It's agreed that the shoes look considerably different than the picture Amazon choose to represent them. I ordered mine in "stone" and the shoes i received (a week ago) are darker than those pictured here and show prominent "stress marks." If this isn't your thing, you've been warned, in duplicate (see previous reviews). So if you see "distressed" and think "filthy," you'd be best advised to look elsewhere. Looks aside, these shoes have proven very comfortable - think dressed up sneaker. The rubber of the soles is a bit soft compared to that used in similar shoes I've worn, I predict this will translate into good shock absorption with a relatively short service life...but let's face it, at this price point, if these things last 6 months (I'm predicting a year of moderate usage), they'd still be a bargain.
  
  
• Ugly and waaayy too wide
  By A3IYUCKPUPW7OJ on 2007-01-09
  I have to say that the distressed look is fairly ugly. These do NOT look like the pictures on amazon.com. Also, these shoes are so wide on my feet. This is ridiculous honestly. I wish I could return them for a full refund including them paying for my shipping, because if I could, then I would. There is absolutely not support in these shoes. I can't even still my own orthotics in these shoes to fix it because they are so wide. I normally buy wider shoes like new balances because my feet are wider than normal and my feet fall right out of these. There is no way that I could wear these for more than fifteen minutes without them hurting my feet or just pissing me off since my feet keep popping out. Unless you are into what looks like worn shoes that are extra wide, then do not buy these.
  
  
• Very comfortable and well constructed. Beware - size runs large
  By A2NA9VZN5VA9GW on 2007-01-12
  I like this model shoe enough to have 2 pair of them, in 2 colors. Quality is good, and they are very comfortable.
  
  A couple tips to pass along. Yes these have a distressed look, which shows up more with darker colors. I feel it adds to their character - just beware of this finish. Keep in mind that these go GREAT with worn jeans, so it's a good match.
  
  The other important tip is that these do run large in size. This style has a large toebox already, but they are still a wee bit long. But they are a tad wide as well. Ultimately it's the insole shape that makes these a shoe that you might want to fall back a size on, or if you wear a half-size, drop the half. As example for me, I normally wear mens 13. I could wear these in 13 as well and deal with the slightly longer length and width, but size 12 was overall more comfortable for me due to the insole shape and foot positioning. This makes a big difference when you are walking with these.
  
  Overall I am very pleased! I have knocked them back 1 star simply due to their not being true to normal size.
  
  
• I thought it was worse...
  By ARAGIY285ULYL on 2007-01-13
  To start let me tell you that i bought these shoes AFTER read all the comments and experiences that the other customers wrote... still for 20 bucks i took the risk and bought them... to my surprise these pair of shoes were great.
  
  I must admit that the shoes that i received are a little bit darker than the ones pictures and yes... they have this "Distressed" look... but man... these shoes are great looking... if you like to wear your "Worn Jeans" this shoes will look great... believe me!.
  
  Regarding the size... well, all my shoes and soccer boots are 11 and of course i bought these 11. They fit me perfectly and they arent wide at all.
  
  Yes, the sole is thin... exactly as shown on Amazon's picture but i disagree that this will traduce in short life.
  
  All in all this is a great buy... for 20 bucks you wont find a better deal on the whole internet for a pair of Shoes.
  
  
• Unbeatable Price.
  By A1FI0OKL1YSTBN on 2007-01-13
  Just got these shoes over Christmas and I am very pleased. Shopped around for these shoes at local department stores and they were anywhere between $35 and $60; I purchased two for $40. They look great and feel comfortable shoes. If you don't like the designed smudges on the stone just get them in the brown crazyhorse.
  
  
• Great looking shoe - actual color is bit darker but nice!!
  By A1YXU6W1EN7GJ9 on 2007-01-17
  The shoes fit my husband true to size, the actual color is darker than it looks and we like the actual color more than the picture.
  
  
• good product
  By AL3CW6UY0ULUF on 2007-01-19
  I feel comfortable while walking and it look's good when i wear than it's actual look and on more thing i would like to say about this product is it's weight yah this shoe is less weight which obivously make you comfortable and easy to walk
  
  
• disappointed
  By A2R6SW64W4D07U on 2007-01-19
  I was disappointed in these shoes. They look whiter in the picture. When I got them the are much more beige - almost tan. What was really weird was, they looked very dirty. The shoes looked like they had been scuffed with black shoe polish or something. I returned them and the replacement pair were exactly the same. Obviously, tha's the way they are supposed to look. I would prefer if they didn't have the scuffed look. Otherwise, they are very comfortable.
  
  
• Stylish, slightly uncomfortable
  By A34RIQQIZSYCCM on 2007-01-26
  I really like the style of these shoes. I like the fact that I can slip them on and off easily without having to untie the laces. However, they are slightly uncomfortable to walk in after a short while. My other Skechers Seige shoes are much more comfortable.
  
  
• Good Shoes!
  By A3KS1XH4GAKZCU on 2007-01-26
  These shoes are durrable as anything and they look pretty nice. I like them alot, the only place they fall short is comfort, they are deffinately not unpleasant to wear, but theyre not the most comfortable shoes ive owned. Get some Dr. Scholes inserts.
  
  
• Not sure about the distressed look
  By A2KXDZMAKH11UJ on 2007-01-27
  Received these shoes for Christmas and like other reviewers, was more than a little surprised at the extent of the "distressing" that Sketchers has applied to the shoe. These shoes literally look as thought the UPS truck that delilvered them actually ran them over a few times. There are strange and rather non-stylish black smudges all over the shoe. People have commented that the shoes look like those of someone that has been changing oil and rotating tires all day. The pictures do not show this. Indeed, I think online is the only mechanism that these shoes will be sold...if you saw them in the store you would probably throw up!
  
  
• A little tight fit
  By A216SLU3ILNS5T on 2007-01-31
  The shoes were better than I expected. Going by the reviews for this product, I was expecting a lot of dark spots on the leather, but surprisingly there were none. :-)
  
  However, the shoes are a little tight and narrow for me. I hope it improves as they are worn more often.
  
  
• Color off
  By ACODYTT2WRXNE on 2007-02-01
  I ordered these shoes based on the picture provided, when they arrived i was dissappointed the color was much darker than it looks and it looked much different.
  
  
• Great shoes
  By A71JIXHP71343 on 2007-02-06
  These shoes arrived quicker than I imagined (next day, when I only have prime 2-day shipping), and fit great. They are comfortable, and they are still great today, 2 months later. The only problem is that the shoes aren't the same color as the ones in the picture. The picture depicts it as a whiter shade, while in reality they are much browner. But don't let the color difference mislead you - these shoes are well worth the money.
  
  
• Nice Show for the price
  By A7JJBV0T9CCEC on 2007-02-06
  Shoe was as described. And for a stylish pair, it was well worth the price. Free S/H and No Tax charged was a great added feature.
