Actress Undergoes Knee Surgeries, Finds Comfort in Skechers Shoes

In 2024, the 53-year-old actress underwent her first knee surgery, prompting her to search for comfortable shoes that could be worn with both dresses and jeans. She discovered Skechers, praising the brand's memory foam technology for providing the support she needed while recovering.

The actress underwent a second knee surgery in July 2025 and is still in the healing process. She is required to wear tennis shoes, even at home, and has found Skechers slip-ons to be a "heaven-sent" solution, allowing her to easily take them on and off as needed.

The actress's partnership with Skechers follows her friend and fellow America's Got Talent judge Howie Mandel's involvement with the brand. Vergara would often pair her glamorous AGT outfits with Skechers shoes, prioritizing comfort over style for the live shows. She admits that comfort has not always been a top priority, but her recent injuries have made it a necessity.

As Vergara reflects on her style evolution, she notes that she used to be "only in a bathing suit" in her younger days, but now at 53, she prefers a mix of "baggy jeans" and "sexier tops" like corsets. Despite feeling more confident in her 20s, she is embracing the changes that come with age and is excited to explore new acting opportunities, including potentially starring in a big-budget movie.
