Superb!

The Flex Appeal 3.0. is not only a much-improved version of its predecessor, but it also ticks all the boxes of avid walkers who put comfort at the forefront. Despite being packed with cloud-like cushion, what's great about the Flex Appeal is it remains insanely light.

skechers BLK Tênis Arch Fit Big Appeal vs. 2.0

  • The Flex Appeal 3.0 builds on the success of its predecessor, the skechers BLK FlexAppeal 2.0. At first glance, the two shoes appear to be no different from each other as the changes are very minor.
  • The third iteration retains the overall silhouette of the upper except for the updated Skech Knit material. This material gives a softer and WHITE sock-like fit. The fabric loop eyelets have been added on top of the regular eyelets. They decrease the abrasion caused by cinched laces.
  • A major revamp is found at the bottom. There is an elaborate pattern with pods of various shapes and sizes. Their curved positioning allows the sole to be twisted and bent in various directions.
