skechers shoes, of which I
have a few. I am returning
this these.

To me, this shoe runs small…I usually wear a women's 8 in sneakers, and I ordered the 6.5 in this shoe since it's in men's sizes and it was the smallest size available, and it felt small. I am returning it for a size 7. In another pair of men's shoes, I have a size 6 and it fits perfectly, so this definitely seems to run small. One of my big toes was rubbing up against the front of the shoe (one foot is larger than the other). Otherwise, I really like the style of the shoe. It seems very well made and sturdy and looks great with jeans. There is no arch support at all, so if you need arch support, just put in your own inserts. The shoe also seems like it will be warm enough for cool fall weather.
I'd also recommend:
New Balance

I have been wearing these shoes to work everyday for the last 8 months to work. They are great for a mixed commute of walk/bus/train.
I have found that they go well with most of my casual work outfits.
The color on the Sketchers "S" has slowly scrapped off from it changing the color from black to a silvery white.
The grey leather on the side of the shoe also has built up a bit of dirt on them that seems to be in the leather itself.
The shoe has hard plastic "details" on the heel of the shoe that have broken or cracked at this point.
The "S" on the rear of the shoe also has taken a bit of damage and does not look very good. Particularity if you use your feet to take your shoes off at the end of the day.
I will say the most of this damage is weather related damage for living in New England and commuting to work all the time in the shoes. If these shoes where worn during better weather or as purely in door shoes they would have fared far better.
Despite the abuse i have put them through. i don't mind wearing them for the 10 to 12 hours that i find myself having to wear them for still.
I am getting newer shoes for work as i need better looking shoes for my work. The pair i have can still be used for camping or yard work. I would not go running in them but they would be good gym shoes.

This is a great shoe, my first day though. have another pair of Sports, and they feel better. These seem to force my foot down into the toe box, but the toe box has the height I need due to a foot issue. The others have a rounded down heel so you aren't tilted a bit forward, but the toe box is not as tall. Love wearing both though, and anything I listed is just a very minor issue.

Have purchased these exact shoes for many years. Have had to special order a couple of times. Only shoes my husband wants to wear.

Part of my foot is missing and this design is the only shoe I can add a liner to so my foot does not hurt.

I have bought many Skechers shoes in the past and was pleased. I finally found a pair without memory foam online. I hope Skechers will continue to produce shoes without memory foam insoles.

I have been buying Sketchers sneakers for about 9 years. They are about all I wear for casual use. They seem to hold up well, inexpensive and seem to provide good support standing on my concrete shop floor.
These are brown. I prefer the grey color that Sketchers seems to have abandoned. I liked it when they use to supply an extra pair of laces in a different color which made it easier to distinquish between the two pair I alternate wearing. Dropping the extra laces and the grey choice is the reason for not rating 5.

The cushioning is great for about 3oo-300 miles of walking, then starts to degrade. Thread at front of shoe comes loose, mostly costmetic.

Would prefer a strap consisting of two strips of nylon fabric, one having tiny hooked threads and the other a coarse surface, that form a strong bond when pressed together in my size and width instead of the shoe strings. And I do not consider v____o to be a profain word.

this is a replacement pair as the first pair blew out on the sides, both shoes after 5 months of moderate use, However, replacement was easy and cordial and I have high expectations for this pair

These were a gift to my father who has wide feet, is elderly, unstable walker, lives in his sports shoes, and loves the all white look. They are perfect and he is very happy, which is not easy to do.

Soles last a long timer but the cushion gives way in a month or less. Cushion lasted longer a few years ago. Now, not so good.
