As autumn approaches, now's the perfect time to invest in some comfortable and durable boots to see you through the wet and muddy season ahead - and right now, these Skechers boots are on sale
Sure to make a statement, these Skechers Jammers boots will create a lasting impression that wins points in style and practicality. Sure to see you through the dreary autumn weather and carry you across any terrain, these Skechers boots rival the likes of iconic brands like Timberland or Doc Martens, but with a more wallet-friendly price tag.
Boasting dreamy comfort, which Skechers is infamous for, and durability that ensures they will be a staple for many seasons to come, these Jammers boots would normally set you back a steep £75. However, they are now up for grabs with a delightful discount, bringing the price tag down to £59.99 while this Skechers sale lasts.
Armed with a fashionable lace-up design, these boots feature all of the comfort and versatility you'd expect from Skechers trainers, but with a synthetic leather upper that wins points for style and ensures they can navigate a large array of settings, whether you're opting for a chunkier shoe to wear to the office or heading out on a walk with the dogs.
Equipped with a Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole, these boots ensure your feet don't feel the heat during the warmer months and don't get sweaty while you go about your day. Thanks to Skechers' classic heritage lug outsole, these shoes provide a 1 3/4-inch heel that helps add that extra height to your look, while also ensuring you've always got grip, durability and protection from the elements, no matter where you're venturing.
In case the nifty price cut hasn't fully convinced you, these chunky boots have amassed an overall 4.5 out of 5-star rating, with nearly 80% bestowing perfect marks.
One Skechers fan gushes: "Perfect shoe. I could walk for days in these shoes. I wear them every day for months and your can't even tell. I wore them for 2 weeks in Japan and hiked a mountain in them and they are still good as new. Super comfy and durable. Sooo comfortable because they are a perfect width, good impact absorption and light weight. On top of that they match with almost everything and are cute."
Another buyer beams: "Great for winter in Michigan with snow!"
Further praise comes from this customer who writes: " These shoes were out of the box comfortable!! The first time I wore them for a full day, I didn't remember that I was wearing "new shoes." I love the look too. Zero regrets!"
And a fourth shopper says: " I wear these shoes daily! I am vegan and I have been looking for a cute pair of shoes built to last that don't have the most painful break in period. These are also great in the snow/ice! I haven't fallen. I will definitely buy them again!!"
One less-than-satisfied customer did share their disappointment, writing: "I have been wearing these very frequently for almost just about a year now, and although I adore the design, the material is not durable, and they are not practical for UK weather or any kind of mud. I had no need to break them in, but the inside has some parts that have been clearly rubbed against, causing holes."
That said, most buyers can't stop raving about the shoes, with one customer noting: "I love these shoes! They were a little lighter in colour than I wanted, but they still match the clothing I purchased them to wear with. They are super comfortable, and I got compliments on them the very first day I wore them. They are very sturdy and provide great support. I absolutely love them!"
If you don't mind splashing some cash, you can pick up Doc Martens' original icon, the 1460 Smooth Leather Lace-Up Boots, for £170. Or, head over to Timberland to find these Greyfield Mid Lace-Up Boots for Women in Black, which are now up for grabs for £45, down from £90.

You simply will not be able to get out of bed in the morning. "I have never wanted to stay in bed so much since getting this. We got the mattress from Dusk and the bed, it is genuinely like sleeping on a marshmallow. It's amazing, I can't even tell you. It's so comfy.", reports Devon Live. "I've not got up once in the morning to walk the dog and it's becoming an issue. It's like sinking sand, once you're in you're not getting out. If you don't want to be lazy, avoid this brand." Love dreamy Welsh homes? Sign up to our newsletter here Both the 2,000 and 4,000 pocket sprung mattresses are available in Double, King, and Super King sizes, while the 2,000 mattress is also available as a Single mattress size. Since sharing her experience, Erin's TikTok comments have been inundated with other users also singing the praises of products, with one writing: "Honestly me and my partner are exactly the same, so hard to get up, it's so comfy." Another added: "I absolutely love my Dusk bed. I've got the exact same as you in black. Heaven." Indeed, Erin is not the only person to have shared a TikTok review of mattresses, as another account, Lathbury Living, with over 3,000 followers, gave the mattress a similarly glowing review. In their own video, liked by more than 2,300 people, the account shared: "We got one of the Dusk mattresses to go on our new bed, and we've only slept on it a few nights, but we love it so far. It's really comfy, and it's been really hot the last few days, but I feel like it's kept us loads cooler. "It came rolled up in a pretty small box, I couldn't quite believe there was a mattress in there, but it was vacuum-sealed, so when we cut into it it just inflated. It took about 24 hours to fully plump up, but it's really filled out now. "The cover on it is removable as well so you can wash it, which I think is a great feature. We're really happy with it, it was really reasonably priced, and it's been really comfy so far." The mattress is available with either 2,000 or 4,000 pocket springs, measuring a generous 25cm or 31cm thick, respectively. These hybrid mattresses consist of either two or four premium layers of pocket springs, and are topped with memory foam for ultimate comfort and pressure relief throughout the night, ensuring your body remains in an optimum position for a restful sleep. Both mattress options are allergy-friendly and medium-firm, providing edge to edge support, and are encased in a luxuriously textured, breathable outer layer that can be removed via a hidden zip, allowing you to wash it at 30°C, for a consistently clean, fresh mattress. All mattresses arrive neatly vacuum-packed for easy delivery - simply unroll and watch it expand into your dream bed. Mattresses may take up to 72 hours to fully expand. Additionally, offers a 100-night sleep trial on all its mattresses, starting from the day of delivery, giving you ample time to ensure the mattress is the perfect fit for you. It's not just TikTok where people are singing the praises of these mattresses, as both options have received a near-perfect rating of 4.9 stars out of five on the website, from hundreds of reviews. One satisfied customer wrote: "Honestly, the best mattress I've ever had. The last mattress I owned deformed in shape almost immediately, and about a year in sprung a metal spring that cut me so deep on my calf as I was getting out of bed, I'll have a big ugly scar there for the rest of my life. "I spent about the same on it as this one, but the difference in quality between the two couldn't be more pronounced. I recommend this mattress 100% without reservation. "It's firm and supportive, yet soft and comfortable and excellent value for money. I've been having t he best nights of sleep of my entire life! I'll be sticking with this brand from now on. Thank you, Dusk." Another added: "I struggle with a spinal issue and I was very sceptical buying a memory foam bed, as sometimes it can make it worse, but this medium/firm mattress has been an absolute godsend. "It's soft enough that it's very e asy to get super comfortable in, however firm enough that it gives great support. My only struggle now is having to get out of it to go to work." And a third commented: "I was dubious about getting a mattress online but glad I took the risk. This mattress is so comfy. It's firm but in the right way. It gives you all the support, but it's comfy at the same time. Came rolled up and expanded within a few days." Indeed, there was minimal criticism on the website regarding the mattress, although one person said: "Very comfy, but if you are near the edge the mattress gives no support so you easily tip/roll off." Another customer experienced the same issue, stating: "10 days in, and have found this mattress comfortable. Am sleeping well. It was heavy to lift onto my newly assembled, open ottoman base. There is an element of "roll-off" at the edges of this mattress. Still a good buy." You could also get your hands on the Emma Hybrid Original Mattress from £224.10 right now. Alternatively, if your budget stretches further, you could invest in Simba's top-selling Hybrid Pro Mattress at up to 20% off, with prices starting at £639 for a Single, reduced from its standard retail price of £799.

I really should have bought a size up." Someone more complimentary of the fit said: "This shoe fits like a glove. I need arch support and cushioning, and this fits the bill."
