'Mega comfy' Skechers that are 'like wearing slippers' 55% less in Amazon deal
Bag these Skechers for better than half-price with this Amazon deal. As we head into autumn, a pair of trainers will most likely be a fashion essential. Whether worn casually or with something dressier, the right design can be worn time and time again. Of course, it's not just about style, as they also need to be comfortable. For that exact reason, Skechers is a no brainer, and we have spotted one "mega comfy" pair going for better than half price. The footwear firm's Flex Appeal 4.0 Brilliant View Sneakers are currently going for just £28.50 on Amazon, down from the regular £64, offering an impressive saving of 55 per cent off the original asking price. It is worth mentioning that the online retailer's discount covers only the black with rose gold trim colourway, with sizes ranging from a two through to 10, with half-sizes also included. Crafted from a light mesh material, they also feature a shock-absorbing midsole and flexible rubber traction outsole, making them suitable for avid fitness buffs who go to the gym or running. Amazon isn't the only place to bag a discount on some new trainers, as Nike is offering its own sale, with the sports firm's Air Zoom Upturn SC reduced from £89.99 to £53.99, a saving of 40 per cent. Looking for something a touch more affordable, yet still sporty? Then Sainsbury's has a range of designs on offer, with the supermarket's Navy Knitted Slip-On Trainers costing just £18 a pair. Owing to Skechers' popularity, the Flex Appeal Flex Appeal Trainers have garnered almost 13,000 Amazon reviews, with praise from shoppers saying they are "so light" they "don't know they are wearing them." One enthusiastic shopper said: "Mega comfy. First time wearing I walked for miles. Extremely comfortable, highly recommend." A second positive review read: "These are great trainers, so light and comfortable, feels like you're wearing slippers!" Another shopper with similar thoughts wrote: "Fantastic trainers feel like a pair of slippers don't Know you're wearing them. Lightweight and support your feet." Fashion deal of the week Looking for a jacket deal ahead of the upcoming autumn season? Then Debenhams has just dropped a staggering 50 percent off the "weather resistant" TOG24 'Marina' Softshell Long Jacket by half-price, reducing the cost from £120 to just £60. Fashion fans looking for something both stylish and practical will appreciate this jacket thanks to its long, sleek design that can be worn everywhere from walking the dog to a trip to the shops. The gently elasticated jacket is said to be "resistant" to wind and rain, with micro-fleece bonding on the inside to prevent any cold air from making its way in, ensuring the weather feels "super cosy." Finished with two handy side zip pockets that keeps hands warm and smaller essentials safely stored, the softshell jacket offers a smart aesthetic that is ideal for travelling, a trip to the office, or protecting an outfit on a night out. So far, the TOG24 Jacket is still available to buy in sizes eight through to 24, with the 50 per cent discount covering all three colours - dark grey, khaki and black. Raving about their purchase, one shopper said: "One five-star review read: "Great coat for the in between weather and showers. Have been wearing it loads and love the green colour as it goes with everything and is a nice change from black and grey that I normally would buy." Shop Debenhams' half-price deal on the TOG24 'Marina' Softshell Long Jacket that is now down from £120 to £60. The design may not be suitable for those with pain-related issues that require extra support, as one three-star review read: "I have plantar fasciitis so will need to revert to the arch fit style. Look lovely though." Meanwhile, another happy customer said: "I will only wear Skechers trainers as they are the comfiest and longest wearing trainers. These trainers are great. "I had concerns over sizing as I have never purchased trainers through Amazon before. The fit is perfect and true to size. Comfy from first wear! Bought them for under £40, bargain!" now.

The hairdryer currently has £37 off, making it better than half-price. One shopper dubbed it 'small but powerful' whilst another said it's 'value for money' Amazon shoppers have been racing to buy a cut price hairdryer dubbed by one shopper as 'as close to Dyson as you'll probably get.'

It features an AC Motor for fast efficient styling, as well as a consistent temperature to evenly dry locks. The Casamaa Professional Ionic Hairdryer also uses ions to help prevent frizzing. It also comes with smoothing and comb attachments, and a diffuser. The nozzle and brush attachment are ideal for styling straight hair, whilst the diffuser has been designed to be used with curly locks. Liverpool beauty brand loved by Michelle Keegan launches £30 beauty box worth £75 'Cosy not sweaty' £130 Regatta coat reduced to £39 - perfect for rainy days The gadget also boasts three wind speeds and includes hot and cold air wind control functions, as well as a removeable back cover that makes it easy to clean and to remove dust.

The gadget features micro-conditioners and Shea oil that are released into the airflow whilst drying. One shopper said: "Brilliant hairdryer and bought on special offer, really good price."

Shark all the way!" For those thinking of investing in the Casamaa Professional Ionic Hairdryer, one user said: "Really powerful, easy to use, lightweight, plenty of accessories. Value for money." Another wrote as part of their review: "As close to the Dyson hair dryer you'll probably get. It's outrageously small but powerful which is great. I'll be taking this on holiday with me and I have very limited space." However some felt the dryer could be quieter, saying: "The accessories are great as there is quite a range and the hairdryer looks great, however it is so noisy! Had to return because of the noise level." Another said theirs didn't last very long, writing: "Mine stopped working after 2 months, other than that it was good." Despite this, some Amazon shoppers compared the quality of the device to higher end options with one saying: "I have had the same hair dryer for 10+ years until it broke. I treated myself originally to a Dyson hair dryer for home and this one for work. The Dyson got returned because the quality from this one was miles better, massive saving and a second one bought because they're that good. Don't waste your money on more expensive ones when this one is miles better." Shop the Casamaa Professional Ionic Hairdryer at Amazon.
