I love me some Skechers.  I have plantar fascitis in both feet and I walk a lot, so I want to replace my sneaks regularly and not pay an arm and a leg each time.  Skechers are affordable and offer pretty good "memory foam" support, though I still add my own Dr. Scholl's inserts for added comfort.  The only reason I take off one star is the tread wears off much too quickly... even for someone who walks a lot, and I think that's obvious by the fact there isn't much tread to begin with.
