I love my Addiction leather walkers. I wear them every morning for my two mile walks and for running errands around town. I've been wearing Brooks sneakers since I had my knee replacement 16 years ago.

Unable to review. The shoe fit was tight and short. The appearance was of a sturdy and protective shoe.

The shoes were too wide, would squeak when I walked, and weren't as comfortable as expected. I have returned them. My other Brooks shoes with a cloth upper I have really enjoyed.

I have bilateral bunions and need a wide toe box. I found Addiction Walkers a few years ago, and they are my primary shoes now. They are consistently comfortable and withstand wear. I can wear them right out of the box. I have custom orthotics, and they fit perfectly in these shoes.

These are very well made! It is a heavy shoe, so it will protect your feet well. It is also extremely supportive. However, it runs small. I wear a 10N. I have 10.5 N and I needed it for vacation so I paid to have it stretched. I wish I had known, I would have purchased an 11N.

I bought these shoes for use in a school kitchen where we need to wear slip resistant shoes.
These shoes are not slip resistant. I wore them once and slipped twice on a slightly wet floor.
These are the first "slip resistant" work shoes that have ever been that way in my 9 years of
working in the school kitchen. Now that I wore them I can't return them or wear them to work!

There's a squeak in the heel of the left shoe as I walk. They're too loose in heel area. I've worn this size in Ariel for over a decade. I keep 2-3 on hand for rotation to9. Was disappointing another style didn't fit as well.

I really love this shoes, good support, stable for 20,000 steps a day. I dont need extra insoles to make it more comfortable. But i have to return it because it is very slippery.

The fit was perfect. But the shoe slipped on the tile floor as soon as I walked on it... so it is definitely not a certified slip resistant shoe IMO.

These shoes began to squeak after I wore them a couple of times. They are fine for casual wear. They become very stiff and uncomfortable during long walks. They feel extremely durable though. I can’t recommend them.

Sorry to say the shoes were not comfortable.
I have a narrow foot and I'm on my feet 8 to 10 hours a day as a restaurant manager.

These were solid sneakers. For sone reason, they made my size 11 feet look smaller! I ordered an 11 wide in white. The leather was very nice, they had a nice look. I planned on wearing them with jeans. I am not a runner. But I do walk. I have bunions and arthritis in my feet. I need space in the toe area and support for my arches. I also need a comfortable, softer foot bed. I dont like to look like Im wearing orthotic sneakers, and these sneakers were good for me. The leather made them feel more substantial on my feet, but not clunky or heavy.

I was excited to have a new pair of these shoes, but when putting them on the first time, they were too short. I read this previously some time ago, and should have ordered larger. I already wear a size 11. I immediately returned the shoes without even wearing them. I loved the look and feel of the shoe when on, except they lacked length in the toe space.

I bought this shoe at my local Runner's store. They made a point of telling me that they are a running store, not a walking store. When I said I was looking for a waterproof sneaker for walking, the salesperson brought me the Addiction 2 Walker :)
I haven't walked on a wet surface yet, so am hoping the comments about it not being slip resistant don't apply to outdoor concrete. The toebox is narrower than I would expect for a bunion-friendly design, but they are comfortable so far. I took off another star because the sole is thick and clunky. I have to be careful when going downstairs that I don't trip.

These shoes were stiff over the top of my foot and tighter across the toe than I would have expected for a wide shoe. I'm returning them.

Ordered these shoes based off reviews from others. There are a mix of reviews on this shoe. I am a true size 11. Some reviews suggested that the toe box was narrow and it is. So I ordered a wide. The wide for this shoe feels like a normal shoe, not wide. However, they were still comfortable on my feet. Again, I am a true size 11 but my toe was still at the top and rubbing the front when I walked. Had to return and I purchased an 11.5 wide. This should work considering the length of shoe was the real problem. Not sure what to recommend for people with wide feet. Would suggest the extra wide.
