Straps are adjustable too which is good. I'm only 5'4" and it's ankle length on me so if you are tall it will be midi."

'Unbeatable' Skechers trainers that 'help reduce pain' get 35% price slash
Ahead of Prime Day, Amazon shoppers won't want to miss this Skechers deal. Anyone who has ever bought a pair of Skechers will know how comfortable they are. For those who are on their feet all day, they are said to provide that bit of extra support. While the footwear firm might come with a hefty price-tag to match its reputation, Amazon has been known to offer some pretty neat discounts on some of the brand's bestselling sandals and trainers. And ahead of this year's Prime Day, which is set to kick off on July 8 for four days, we have spotted these Skechers Women's Ultra Flex 3.0 Brilliant Path Sneakers dropped from £89 to £57.50, offering 35 per cent off the RRP. Hailed in reviews as "the comfiest footwear on the market", these knitted trainers boast a hands-free slip-on style design, making them an easy and convenient option for anyone who struggles to bend down or pull on their shoes. Engineered with Skechers' exclusive heel pillow, feet are kept securely in place, while the air-cooled memory foam insole offers the wearer pressure relief, instant comfort and breathability. With it being summer, not many of us want to wear shoes that will get our feet feeling hot and sweaty. Fortunately, like many of the brand's other options, they have been crafted from a breathable stretch-fit material, meaning they offer "sock-like comfort." An important note for customers is that Amazon's 35 per cent discount covers the black colourway, with sizes two to nine available to shop. There are other colours to choose from, but the discounts are not as high. For the shoppers who maybe want to wait for Prime Day to see if the trainers get an even further discount, an alternative until then would be these Knitted Slip On Trainers from M&S that are a tad cheaper at £39.50. Fashion deal of the week Fashion fans looking for a dress that will standout at all their summer events will need to hear about this one from Roman. The high street chain's Royal Blue Rose Print Button Detail Maxi Dress, hailed as "perfect for the warmer seasons", is now on sale for £35 after being dropped from £48 - saving 27 percent overall.

A real head turner... Love it." Someone else added: "Another pleased purchaser wrote: "Just love this dress, lovely colours, beautiful material, perfect for my upcoming holiday." Debenhams is also another good retailer to check out for any discounts on comfy footwear, as we have spotted these similar Hush Puppies 'Ennis' Slip-On Shoes for just £49.99 after being dropped from £75, saving 33 per cent off the RRP. Meanwhile, eager bargain hunters who want to nab Amazon's deal on the Skechers Flex 3.0 Trainers will be happy to hear that they have earned a 4.6 rating based on thousands of reviews that say they offer "unbeatable" comfort and are "a dream to walk in." One delighted reviewer wrote: "I have very painful feet and these are honestly the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. The slip in is super convenient but the comfort is unbeatable! I've ordered another pair in a different style and hoping they are equally comfortable." A second shopper praising the fit wrote: "I've been having problems with my heel and these helped to reduce the pain. Very easy on and off as advertised, and never had to wear them in." A couple of shoppers have had issues with the sizing, as one said: "I'm a UK 5 and the size UK 5 I ordered were too big by quite a bit so I have had to reorder in a smaller size and hopefully they will be better." It's worth noting that the criticism was quite minimal, as another delighted customer said of their purchase: "Bought these as I have a problem putting my shoes on. Now it's easy. Literally just slip my feet into these trainers. Brilliant. Comfortable, fit is good, lightweight. Good value." One thoroughly impressed customer said: "My first pair of Skechers Slip Ins and wow they do not disappoint! Like walking on clouds! Not big and bulky, very well made and a dream to walk in. Gosh what other colours should I invest in……LOVE THEM." Shoppers can bag a pair of the Skechers Women's Ultra Flex 3.0 Brilliant Path Sneakers for just £57.50 on Amazon now.
