POLL: will you consider buying Skechers running shoes after Meb's olympic run?

I've run in Skechers for 10 years. Awesome support, esp. for front foot landers. Plus, each pair lasts me about 1 year (you read that right). And I haven't been injured 'forever'.

I will. Just so they feel like the marketing dollars they are spending on him are going to go use. Meb continues to be an incredibly impressive athlete, marathoner, and person.

I don't have any money, but I would get some if I did.

-Way more than I would have without his endoresement. Now, if I saw them in a store, I'd be curious enough to try them on.

Their shoes are $40.

He's the best we have to offer wrote:

I like the fact that, unlike Nike, Sketchers actually uses their athlete for marketing. The ads with Meb are mutually beneficial. Not only does Sketchers get to market their product, Meb's name gets out there because he's featured on ads. If other companies would do the same, maybe people would actually know who our top runners are.

I have a pair of GoRun and am thinking about getting another pair of their newest version of running shoe.

Just to say- I've run in the Energy for years & recently went to the Shape Ups (and yea, I'm male lol).
