Very interesting looking shoe. When it first arrived I was like...ugh, these look like shoes for a teenage boy but I didn't want to send them back until I did the thorough inspection. These shoes don't look padded, the leather is very fine, not like most shoes, stretchy laces. Anyway, I got them in grey...it looks like the picture. I have narrow-ish feet so definitely not recommended for thicker feet. I wear size 11 and they fit just right. Might keep them when I'm feelin' funky.

This is an okay-looking shoe but that's about as far as I can stretch a compliment. The birch color is a nice, rich tan. The stretch laces are an asset and easy to tie. Otherwise, this is a very plain shoe with surprisingly less support than I thought would be in an Air shoe.

These shoes are surprisingly comfortable. I wouldn't recommend them for a marathon or anything, but they'll make a great, comfortable everyday shoe for walking around while staying a couple steps above the average Nike or New Balance style-wise. The back of the shoe has a stretchy elastic panel so I'm not the least bit concerned about blisters and can slip the shoe on and off somewhat easily (thanks in part to the elastic laces).

Excellent Shoe. Very stylish yet not too dressy - I love this shoe. It looks great with jeans. I bought them to match a brown leather jacket I received for Christmas. They look and feel very nice. My husband and 15 year old daughter both have versions of this shoe. They're a nice looking and fitting shoe. Excellent service from Zappos. Quickest delivery from an online order co. ever!

Great Shoes - Of all the Skechers shoes in this style, these are definitely the most comfortable and most flexible. I tried on pretty much all styles at a Skechers store to compare. As always, Skechers run a little big, so go 1/2 size smaller than normal. Overall, a fantastic buy.

Good support - These shoes provide excellent support when walking/standing all day. The only problem I have is that they are a tiny bit loose in the heel (which is pretty typical of most shoes for me) and they make a noise when I walk. I got a pair of Skechers 3 years ago and loved the support, so decided to get another pair.

Love my Skechers! They're very comfortable and I like how they look with jeans. I'm between a size 5.5 and a size 6 and I wish I'd ordered the 5.5, as they are a little big.

Great pair of shoes that go well with everything. This is my second pair of shoes like this. I love them. They make jeans looks a little dressier and they go well with khaki pants also. Very comfortable.

I have a very hard time finding comfortable shoes because my foot is wide in the front and narrow in the back, but my Skechers fit perfectly and are so comfortable. I just ordered 2 more pairs. The only thing that was a problem is that my brown pair, even after spraying them with a water-resistant spray, started to look a little nasty after the winter. However, I did wear them constantly so they were definitely worth it.

I was very skeptical when I ordered these shoes from Zappos. Well, all of my questions were put to rest when ordering. I read the previous reviews and figured out how this shoe typically is sized. I ordered 1/2 size smaller, and they fit perfect and look great! I definitely suggest buying them and I also suggest buying from Zappos. I've told my friends. It's better than going to the store!
