No shit I have had the same pair of sketchers for almost 10 years and have used the SHIT out of them. So much lifting and running for years in them, and they still look new.  Oh and I bought them used for $13... normally I don't buy used shoes ever but they looked brand spanking new and I couldn't help it. i'm guessing they were bought for someone and didn't fit? But anyway sketchers fucking rock to anyone needing new shoes.
