They paid him $194 million. So you can get past the bad look of the most injured star of his era signing with the company that makes orthopedic shoes for old ladies.

but what Sketchers thinks they get out of being associated with someone hurt all the time is a different question.

All marketing shenanigans aside, Sketchers makes a better shoe than Nike.

If you need double wide, memory foam, slip in comfortable shoes to walk all day no doubt.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone put on a sketcher for sports.

I didn't know they were orthopedic. I had always associated sketches with girls and children. I guess they are trying to make a move into a me market. Definitely chose the wrong pitchman unfortunately and with 194 mil they could have had almost anyone.

You're overestimating the number of people that actually still care about Joel Embiid.
