    Shoe Size: Felt a half size larger than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Shoe Width: Felt wider than marked
    I am a nurse and got these shoes for work. My daughter in law, who is a restaurant manager and also on her feet all the time, wears these and highly recommended them. They are super light, have good support and look great with scrubs, all for a great price. I'd say they run about a half size big, but don't come in half sizes. Just wear thicker socks. I would definitely recommend these to a friend!

    I am a nurse and work in the operating room, so I am on my feet all day. I have tried all kinds of shoes and these seem to be the most comfortable so far. Way more comfortable than even Danskos, and much cheaper. I can just wipe them down with a disinfectant wipe when they get dirty. They do run big, I wear a size 8 normally and had to return them to get a 7 which fits perfect.

    Great shoe, size is a little off, just have to wear a thicker sock. Besides that, love the shoe and Zappos fast shipping.

    Size 7 is perfect for my size 8 1/2 feet. I like room in the toe box and have a narrow heel. Had to return size 9 and size 8. The 7s are perfect. I have high arches and initially felt pressure across the top of my feet in these shoes, but it's easy to loosen it up by rubbing from the inside.

    I love these shoes. My heels hurt so bad before I tried these shoes. The slip resistance bottom is also great. I work in food service and the floors are wet a lot. Our floor is also tile so it is very slippery, I have not had a problem since wearing these shoes. I love ordering from Zappos too; I always get my order a couple days earlier than I thought. Thanks Zappos on a job well done. Try these shoes if your feet hurt, or if you are on your feet a lot. I think you will like them.

    I love these shoes, I have them in white now I got black ones. I use my Airwalk insoles in them and I get along great. I ordered these shoes around 5 o'clock on September 26th (Saturday) and on Monday September 28th they were at my door before 10 AM. I could not believe it. Thanks.

    Great Work Shoes - This is my fourth pair of Sketchers Work Oswald shoes. I have special orthotics that doesn’t seem to fit well in any shoes I've tried except these Sketcher's. They are super comfortable, light weight, and affordable. The only thing I wish is that they made this same exact shoe in leather. They tend to be hot in summer.

    This is the first Sketchers shoe I've purchased. It was true to size. I was looking for more arch support, and with the purchase of inserts can comfortably wear this shoe; however, I was disappointed in that it had little to no arch support. I would not purchase this shoe again. As always, excellent service from Zappos.

    Skechers work shoes - I like them and rely on Skechers to be a good shoe but these work shoes could have a thicker sole. Being on them all day is painful by mid day.

    A Truly Non-Skid Shoe - Working in a restaurant kitchen can be a treacherous experience. After several pairs of so-called "non-skid/slip" work shoes, I finally found a pair that lives up to its description. This shoe is excellent in watery, oily, or slick surfaces. Other shoes that I tried left me sliding into hot stoves, slipping on tiled floors, or sore feet from gripping the floor in an attempt to maintain my balance. The only downside is a rather thin sole. I use inserts to cushion the bottom of my feet as there's not much support in this shoe. However, so far it meets the most important objective--to stay out of the stock pot!

    So, far these shoes are excellent to wear when you work all day standing and walking around. I am in retail and I would encourage people to at least try these shoes.

    An okay shoe - At my job, the floors are extremely slick and these shoes have great traction and I have yet to slide one little bit. On the other side though, these shoes started out really comfy but have gotten so uncomfortable that I have awful feet and knee problems now.

    Great shoes! I love these shoes. I work 12 hour shifts and I require a good shoe with all the walking I do. I would recommend these shoes to all!

    Great shoe for nurses! I have a bad back and wearing this shoe for a twelve hour shift helps! My legs and feet do not hurt the next day. I have tried so many different types of sneakers and nursing shoes, and these are by far the best!

    Minimal arch, but comfortable - The shoes are very comfortable for me, but not for extended periods of time at work- I found that there is not enough arch support or cushioning for long periods of walking. I am a bartender and I found that my calves were sore after a busy day due to the absence of arch support. By the time I found this out I could not return the shoes. I am better off wearing them on a slow day when I don't do a lot of walking.

    Cute, trendy nursing shoes FINALLY! I looked everywhere for a pair of nursing shoes that weren't hideous. I found these and they are SO comfortable and they are cute and trendy. Along with comfort and looks they are slip resistant. You could walk thru a puddle of water and NOT slip. For anyone who has ever fallen in front of a ton of people, it is TRULY embarrassing and you can get pretty hurt. NOT in these shoes. A DEFINITE 2 thumbs up. Also, I couldn't have asked for better service from ZAPPOS. A+++

    Best Work Shoe - I needed a pair of white shoes for nursing school and got these as an alternative to clunky, heavy tennis shoes. They are perfect! I wear a 7 - 8 in shoes and I got an 8. I wear them w/ a thicker sock and they fit perfect. There is medium arch support (I have a high arch) and the width is very roomy (I have a somewhat wide foot). The bottom grip is perfect for slippery floors in the hospital. These are really a good "work" shoe and aren’t too heavy for 12 hours on your feet.
