Customer Reviews SKECHERS Afterburn M. Fit

I am a woman who wears a 7.5 EEEE shoe in women's. To get my width, I frequently have to purchase men's shoes. After trying on this shoe in a store, I realized these ran short but I could not find an 8 EEEE in men's locally. Found it on Zappos. The 8 EEEE fits in the way a 7.5 EEEE woman's would fit. Normally, I have to buy a 7 or smaller in men's shoes. These actually fit well. I wore them around the house for an hour last night & my knees and hips were in so much pain. I have no idea why. I have never had shoes make my body experience this much pain. I need shoes that I can wear for several mile walk with my dog. I am finding this impossible. Clearly these will not work despite actually fit my feet.

This shoe feels great. It's a stylish comfy lounging shoe... but it's a DISASTER for long walks. I wore that for a mile long walk and my feet "swam" inside these shoes! When I got home my feet were numb and sore for the rest of the day. I honestly worried I had damaged my feet. These are not for athletic pursuits at all. I'll never wear them to exercise again. I'll be glad to go to eat or play video games in them, but if I need some support and performance I'm going to have to look elsewhere (and that's what I'm doing right now).

I know many claim that these shoes fall apart too quickly. I suppose I decided to try them because the price is great. I didn't wear them long enough to test their durability. The size was true in terms of width and length, but for me the toe box was a bit too shallow, so the inside of the shoes rubbed against the tops of my toes and would have given me blisters if I'd continued to wear them. (And I don't think there's anything strange about my feet!) Also, I found that there is an imbalance between the heel and sole, so that, when walking, the shoes seem to tip you too far onto the balls of your feet and toes.

I really liked the looks of the shoes. I wish that I could have tried them on first.I may have gotten a little smaller size. I guess the men in this town do not wear wide width shoes. I like the shoes and boots that I purchased from Zappos.

Fit was as expected. The memory foam insoles are a weird gimmick, initially cushy, but there's no structure, so your foot slides all over the place in the shoe while you are walking. Not uncomfortable for standing, and glad to have more options for extra-wide shoes, but not impressed over all.

I was determined to love these shoes based on looks/ styling and my determination to not be influenced by previously posted reviews. However, after wearing them one hour in my Planet Fitness Gym, doing mostly upper body workout and only 45 minute treadmill and 10 minute stair climber I have to admit most of the reviews regarding comfort anr 100% true. I honestly believe that if I continue wearing these shoes for distance walking or extended workouts I will become totally lame/ crippled. As for ZAPPO'S they are bound to catch some unwarranted negative feedback but Zappo's is only a conduit for manufacturers, mostly high quality producers but sometimes consumers, myself included, make poor choices based on visuals and pricing. That is not a legitimate reason to blame ZAPPO's. I'm sorry but these will have to be returned for higher quality athletic shoes.

Fit was good even for narrow feet except the height of the shoe below the ankle was too high. They are like marshmallows, and if they fit right, you're gonna love them! Going to try and find a similar style with the foam footbed.

Great fitting and comfortable shoe however found that sealant and stitching was not held together quite well

I think the shoe is good. I wide enough. The memory foam feels stiff I had the Skechers before and it wasn’t that way.i will let you know. But a great price and with 13 4e you never find them in stores.

Medium support

My husband has worn these for several days and found them to be ok but not great. The memory foam footbed seemed comfortable at first but squishes too much while standing so his toes get scrunched and slip forward in the shoe. It's also rather hot and makes the bottom of his feet sweat more than normal! The join where the rubber sole meets the leather upper is weak and already was coming unglued. They look good but don't seem very durable for daily wear or exercising so I expect we'll need to buy a different pair to replace these ones soon. We won't be going for this brand next time.

Very comfortable shoe (judging only by the one day I’ve owned them). The foam material on the lower half was already wrinkled so I’m curious to see how long these will hold up. For the price it’s a good buy.

Very comfortable. Like the looks. Only complaint is the quality. Have had three pairs and all of them come apart around the toe area.

I thought that she was comfortable and looked great but I just couldn’t get it to fit right.
