This week Skechers copied the concept behind for TOMS shoes by launching BOBS (link no longer available). Just like TOMS, when you buy a pair of BOBS, Skechers would donate another pair to a child in need. Even the shoes were the same. And their name had a similar short, familiar feel.

$10 million LOS ANGELES, August 30, 2023--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Skechers, The Comfort Technology Company™, announced that its philanthropic BOBS from Skechers division has donated more than $10 million since the program's launch in 2015 - funds that have helped save and support 1.9 million dogs and cats in need.

BOBS from Skechers Make a difference with BOBS - the brand that's donated more than $10 million to animal organizations and has helped 1.9 million shelter dogs and cats. To learn more about how you can save and support animals with your purchase, visit BOBS charity.

In 2010, Skechers copied essentially the entire concept behind TOMS and launched BOBS Shoes by SKECHERS. They are producing similar shoes, with the brand name BOBS (a plural version of a common three letter male name, expressed in all caps).

Effortless style and supportive comfort combine in BOBS from Skechers™ Arch Fit® B Cute - Epic Flair. This casual vegan design features a textured canvas upper with a removable Arch Fit® insole and Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® cushioning. For every BOBS purchase, a donation is made to animals in need.

Designed for women who walk, these are extremely lightweight and breathable. More patented technology from the famed shoe brand includes Air-Cooled Goga Mat insoles and Hyper Pillar cushioning. Even though Skechers has a fashion reputation, the brand's designers definitely know their way around serious athletic shoes.

As a consequence, Skechers can cause ligament and muscle stresses and strains. The memory foam could take on the 'memory' of a poor gait style causing destabilising foot, ankle, knee, hip and lower back pain.

These shoes work well and don't rub my toes. They don't rub my baby bunions. The foot bed is very soft and the shoe is very comfortable. However, there is no true support.
