I wore this during the Chicago marathon recently. I had an older pair/model that I used in the Houston marathon in January. I was satisfied with both their performances. They are light but still durable.

This is a racing shoe designed for triathletes to wear without socks. But amazingly enough, I have found it to be ideal for orthotics. I've run through half a dozen brands in women's and men's sizes, desperately searching for enough space between shoe bed and upper to comfortably hold both an orthotic and the human foot. The few models that have given my toes wiggle room are like walking on inflexible platform shoes. After three trip-and-fall incidents, a corrective exercise specialist recommended this shoe because she thought that the thick, clunky soles of my other shoes prevented me from having a "feel" for the ground -- and cracked, uneven sidewalks. These feather-light, thinner-soled racing shoes have completely solved the problem. Moreover, the elastic fabric stabilizes the whole of the foot in my full-length orthotic, rather than just cinching up the area beneath the laces. So my orthotics actually perform better as well. Aside from everything else, I'm finally getting the full value out of those expensive custom orthotics. And with offset anatomical laces and life-vest orange trim, they're a pretty cool fashion statement for an old lady in tennis shoes. One warning: these shoes ran very small. I needed a full men's size larger, and my usual men's size is usually a bit longer and roomier than the women's counterpart size. Yet I needed a full size to get the correct length. Perhaps some of that can be attributed to orthotics, but it's still a big differential that you should plan for. As always, Zappos' service was superb. A customer service person urged me in the strongest terms to write about the sizing issue. "We need to know that and so do our customers." It beats the accusatory "What?" I get in stores when my size turns out not to be my size in a different brand or model. Thanks, Zappos!

I needed a slip on with solid support and these fit the bill perfectly. A great replacement for my favorite dock siders.

I wear a size 12, but my foot is not a "D" width. It seems that most shoe companies think longer means wider and they don't make anything narrower than a "D." This shoe (and another style by Sebago I own) comes in a medium width that fits me great. They also offer it in a narrow width. Not only do I like the fit, but the styling is better than similar shoes in other brands.

I bought these for my husband and he loves them. Perfect comfort all the way around, an instant comfort the minute he put them on. Would buy this pair again and again.

Great shoes, very comfortable right out of box. Highly recommend these shoes - you won't be disappointed.

I didn't even know what a boat shoe was when I ordered this shoe in 2009, so I dunno how good it is on the water, but this shoe rocks the house in all other terrain. I wear it to work, school, going out, walking, whatever. The marine grip is actually perfect for mountain biking. The shoe fit well from day one, no breaking in necessary. I've owned these shoes for 2.5 years now and they are just now beginning to wear out. Best shoe you'll own.
