Even though they're called Skechers, these shoes aren't sketchy at all. We didn't buy them at a thrift store. We didn't steal them from the shoe pile at a party. We didn't find them hanging from a telephone wire. These are just nice, regular shoes that come brand new in the box. Except for that one pair that we found in the gutter. But your odds of getting that pair are really, really low. Trust us.
