'Extremely comfortable' Skechers with 20k reviews and worn for 9+ hours now 48% off

When shopping for new trainers, there are certain features that are pretty vital to look out for: comfort, durability and price (with aesthetics being a happy addition). With Amazon's Prime Day sales almost upon us as the event begins on July 8 and ends on July 11, the shopping giant has dropped the price of some of its products early such as a pair of Skecher's trainers that its wearers are calling 'incredibly comfortable'.
With 48% off in some of the sizes, the Skechers Women's D'Lites-Biggest Fan Trainers have been reduced from £69 to £36.15 when buying the Black Trubuck White Mesh Silver Trim design. A timeless style, the shoes are available in sizes two to nine although for each size a different sale price is assigned.
While size two is £36.15, size six is £40.32 and nine is £47.99 - matching Sport's Direct's price of £47 and beating Skechers' own £70. Made from durable Trubuck leather, the shoes are described as being 'lightweight' with mesh and synthetic upper material to make them breathable.
With a tongue loop for ease of getting on and off, the Skechers shoes are made with laces for easy wear and have a cushioned 'Air-Cooled Memory Foam' insole. This detail can help - as shared on the Skechers' website - "provide pressure relief, instant comfort, and breathability".
The shoes' 1 1/4-inch heel height offers stability and support with a sole that 'moulds' to the feet. This detail is often found in shoes of a similar style, such as the Nike Initiator, which is currently on sale at Schuh for £39.99, down from £75. With a 'retro' design, the shoes at this price are in a bold silver hue and have visible Air-Sole cushioning for the 'perfect mix of fashion and performance'.
Many people have shared how the Skechers shoes are ideal for working on your feet thanks to their cushioned sole - something that is often complimented in New Balance trainers such as the 327 Shoes which are currently on sale for £60 from £100 on the brand's website. With one person stating they're the 'Perfect everyday walking shoes', they're a good alternative for those looking to spend a little extra.
With an impressive 4.6 star rating on Amazon alone from over 20,000 reviews, however, the Skechers shoes have gained some high praise with many people complimenting their style and 'fabulous' look too.
One person who left a five-star review raved: "I love Skechers and have bought several pairs in different designs, and these do not disappoint. I am on my feet for nine hours a day, and these are so comfortable and lightweight. The memory foam moulds to your feet, and they are incredibly comfortable."
'Amazing full comfort, the support is outstanding. These have to be the comfiest trainers I've ever purchased,' said another firm fan of the shoes, while someone else added: "I've been wearing the Skechers Women's D'Lites-Biggest Fan Trainers for a while now, and I'm honestly so impressed! They've become my go-to pair for everyday wear. The comfort is amazing, the cushioning feels like walking on clouds, and I've noticed less foot fatigue even after being on my feet for hours.
"The design is super cute too – they're stylish but still practical, and I love how they go with almost everything in my wardrobe. I also really appreciate the support they provide, especially around my arches, which has made a huge difference for me."
While a lot of people loved that the shoes provide some serious support and comfort, others haven't enjoyed quite how 'heavy' the Skechers can be.
One person said: " These Skechers are nice to look at but heavy in design. I feel they are to heavy and weigh down my feet. I brought them for work on the ward but after my shift, at home, my feet were aching and worn out. I tried again but i had to go back to the footwear i had previously to wear to work. Not really for me, as the wearing of them is not to my liking, and as of now, they are in the box they came in and have not been used since my second attempt."

The Aeropress Go is a rapid brewing device that is said to make a gorgeously rich cup of coffee without any bitterness or high acidity.

Able to make between one and three cups of smooth American style coffee per pressing, users should have a warm brew in under a minute. Aeropress Go Portable Travel Coffee Press Kit £44.99 £33.97 Amazon Buy Now Product Description However, unlike a French Press, this device uses the Aeropress that uses a rapid immersion brewing process, which means it can also brew espresso style coffee for lattes and cappuccinos. Along with the press and 444ml mug, shoppers will also get a scoop, a stirrer, a lid and paper filters. Another travel coffee machine on Amazon is the HAILASRE Electric Portable Espresso Machine. Now retailing for £64.59 (RRP £67.99), this device comes with a large battery life and is self-heating so shoppers can make a warm brew after adding cold water. Alternatively, for those who enjoy a cooler coffee-based beverage, Debenhams is selling the asobu Portable Cold Brew Coffee Maker for £59.99.

One happy shopper said: "These are the things I love about it: 1) a good coffee ground will be delicious. You have total freedom to control the water temperature and preparation time, as it is entirely manual; 2) I love how easy it is to dispose of the used coffee. You just pop the compressed ground in the garbage bin and clean the rest. "3) It is great to prepare a coffee while socializing. Everyone loves it and the preparation process, even those who usually say they don't like to drink coffee." With another five-star reviewer adding: "This little kit is excellent, makes a lovely cup of coffee, easy to use and clean, brilliant product." However, a few shoppers weren't as pleased, as one person said: "Makes decent coffee and easy to clean but doesn't even make a full mug. Just get the regular one." With another adding: "The Aeropress Go is significantly smaller than the standard Aeropress." Despite this, a top reviewer said: "Bought as a Christmas gift for a coffee lover. We use it frequently now. Everything packs and fits away perfectly into the cup which is great. Has everything you need with it. We love to make coffee with this. Cleans up easily (easier than a cafetiere in my opinion). Makes great coffee (provided you buy good quality beans!)." With a sixth shopper adding: "Having read about this I took the plunge!

'Powerful' nutribullet blender cut to £30 is better than any blender or food processor'

Buyers have praised the handy device for its ability to make smoothies and other snacks Despite Amazon's massive Prime Day event ending last Friday, shoppers are still able to get some cracking bargains on a range of items. Whether you are in need of a new smartwatch, hair dryer or pair of Sketchers, it is well worth a bargain hunter's time to see what limited time deals are available. For those who are on a health kick or just love a fruity smoothie to start their day off right, Amazon has knocked the price off some of their blenders so shoppers can save some money on consistently buying healthy drinks from the supermarket. One popular device that has received a hefty discount is the nutribullet Magic Bullet Blender. Normally retailing for £49.99, shoppers can now snap it up for £29.99 in a limited time deal. With over 12,700 ratings, this all-in-one blender is said to be the "ultimate versatile kitchen appliance".

With a speed of 10,000 RPM and featuring the innovative bullet cross blade, shoppers will have their favourite blends in seconds.

Looks good, doesn't take up too much room." With another five-star reviewer adding: "Just what my kitchen needed to put those recipes together! It's more powerful than the other version and the jugs are a bonus." However, not everyone was pleased with the device, as one shopper wrote: "It's okay, looks good and works well.

Bitcoin surges past $120,000, riding momentum in D.C. and markets

The value of a single bitcoin surpassed $120,000 early Monday, the latest record price for the digital token that has set multiple all-time highs in recent weeks amid bullishness about developments on Capitol Hill and concerns about inflation and the U.S. dollar's declining value. Because it remains prone to large price swings, bitcoin's trajectory tends to track that of riskier assets like tech stocks — although it has outperformed those soundly in 2025. Year to date through Friday, only gold — up 27.7% — has outperformed bitcoin, up 25.9%. By comparison, the tech-focused Nasdaq 100 index has gained 8.7%, while the broad S&P 500 has climbed 7%. Early Monday morning, the nearly 20 million individual bitcoins in existence are worth a combined $2.4 trillion, making the entire asset class the world's fifth-most valuable, surpassing Amazon and closing in on Apple, according to crypto news site Apple had a $3.1 trillion market valuation as of Monday morning. Most of this year's gains have come in the past few weeks. They've been fueled by a host of factors, including the partial pause in President Donald Trump's trade war and the passage of his tax cut and spending bill, which, on balance, cuts taxes while also increasing the U.S.'s debt — both bullish for increased bitcoin investment. The dollar's declining value relative to other currencies has also made bitcoin a more attractive asset to own as a hedge among international investors against potential changes to the dollar's status as reserve currency. Finally, there's been increased interest among large financial firms in crypto thanks in part to crypto-focused legislation. Indeed, the GOP-led House of Representatives has declared this week 'crypto week' as it takes up three different bills related to regulating digital assets, including the GENIUS Act, which would clarify how companies can issue their own digital tokens. According to Reuters, Democrats — many of whom remain opposed to making crypto more mainstream — are expected to offer several amendments to the bills, though it was unclear whether any would be successful. Crypto's recent uplift has added some $620 million to Trump's estimated net worth, Bloomberg reported earlier this month. Some Democrats see those gains as reason enough to oppose legislation that would pave the way for wider crypto adoption. 'These bills would make Congress complicit in Trump's unprecedented crypto scam,' Rep. Maxine Waters of California, the top Democrat on the House financial services committee, said in a statement. There's debate about how much higher bitcoin will go the rest of the year. Its trajectory remains strongly tied to the outlook for global interest rates. When these are relatively lower — as they have been recently — there's more money available to purchase riskier assets like bitcoin. But with developed economies that have historically kept government spending in check now set to increase funding, interest rates are likely to begin ramping up in response to inflation concerns, "The risk that central banks shift focus back to the risks of re-accelerating inflation may develop into a potential headwind for Bitcoin in the latter half of the year," Matthew Weller Global Head of Research at said in a note published earlier this month, "especially with fiscal policy (government spending and tax cuts) becoming more accommodative."
