Customer Reviews SKECHERS Empress - Wide-Awake

I thought these shoes were really cute. I got the black ones in an 8 1/2. They fit nicely and I would have kept them, if they had more cushion in the foot-bed. The sole felt thin and I need a cushy shoe to be comfortable.

The shoes were very comfortable except for the back of the shoes. I could tell that I would get a blister on the back of my ankle area because it rubbed that area. I would have kept them except for that one problem.

If you look closely at these sneakers you will see they raise up at the back of the heel. That raised up part dug into my heel with every step. So back these go to Zappo's. Surprised at Skechers their shoes and sneakers and sandals are normally very comfortable but I couldn't walk 10 feet in these sneakers.

Returned in favor of the Merrell Zoe sojourn which had way more style and support. These felt comfy though. I just need mine for long walks on my commute and these felt like they weren't substantial enough.

They rubbed on my heals all day. I wasn't impressed. It's weird. I usually LOVE sketchers.

I wanted to love these. I wear a 9.5 and the width is hit or miss for me. Sometimes a wide fits better depend on the shoe. These were very narrow. I could not even get it on. placing my hand in the shoe there was not much support. Bummer

I could hardly get this sneaker on my foot, possibly size is miss-marked? Usually love Sketchers but this pair is going right back.

I so wanted to love these shoes because they were really cute on my feet (8.5 M). But I have problems with the balls of my feet hurting and these were just too snug at their widest width. I think someone else will find them comfortable.
