Skechers 'Bikers Rosebud' casual shoe with sequins - is 'fashion sports' just bad advertising?

When I read the words "Fashion Sports" as a shoe category it almost provoked a horrible sneer from my face. If ever there was a section of shoes I'm destined to hate, that would be it. I loathe almost all sportswear, and I hate when shoe designers try to combine fashion with aspects of trainers. But then I remembered my gorgeous Green Flash, and realised that, well, quite a few of my shoes belong to this godforsaken 'genre'.

This pair of shoes from Skechers sums up my thoughts on the category much more succinctly, which is exactly why I think they're awful. The Bikers Rosebud shoes look like some lovechild of a disco loving trainer and some pretty salmon pink ballet pumps. And for £45, that's certainly no match made in heaven if you ask me.

Ew...They were bad enough with out the sequins!

Oh my goodness, I have a relative who shall remain nameless who has a pair of shoes like this but just plain white, and she wore them to a family event and all the ladies were like "Ooh, those are nice!" "I'll have to get a pair of those!" and it was all I could do not to scream "Nooooooooooo!" and tell them not to be seduced. I did stop my mother, I'll tell you that much. I am with you, sister.
