Customer Reviews SKECHERS Arch Fit

They should rename this shoe. "Arch Fit" is not accurate, as the arch support is pretty much nonexistent. If you tend to pronate, find a different shoe.

I had high hopes for these. I have narrow feet, very high arches and tarsal tunnel syndrome. These were the first sneakers that I felt had the arch far enough back toward my heel! and the heel to toe drop was good. I liked that the soles felt solid and not like mattresses. But, the mid foot was just too wide, and the fabric puckered. I felt like my mid foot didn't have any support and that my foot wanted to roll inward. Ultimately, just trying them on, and the wiggling my feet in them, aggravated my tarsal tunnel. I tried with my Orthoheel Orthodics, but the structure of the shoe itself just didn't fit my narrow foot or support it right. I have to say, I was favorably impressed otherwise.

Needs to have more toe room.

Felt really great with the arch support but heels too loose for my narrow heel. Had to return.

The shoe felt really good until I walked around and felt that the bottoms were very slippery. I can't take a chance of falling and I did not feel safe in them.

I really wanted to love these shoes. Good arch support and soft to help with plantar issues. The only problem was the instep was not supportive enough to keep my ankle from rolling inward with each step.

The shoe was very good looking, the material was good, but the arch support was too weak for my needs. I expected more support from Sketchers.

great arch support however shoe is somewhat stiff and the foot bed area is hard. not what I thought this shoe would be.

I have several pairs of Go Walk Sketchers. But I can no longer wear them as they have given me a rip roaring case of plantar fasciitis. After avoiding using Sketchers over winter the problem seemed to have gone away. However I bought a pair of Arch Fit Sketchers and walked less than a couple of kilometers and again have the same problem- a stabbing pain in the heel-arch junction. I bought the Arch Fit shoes as I thought that Sketchers had solved their problem. Sadly not. While I was in the local chemist seeking a solution I talked to a guy who was getting fitted for arch supports - he said he got his plantar fasciitis wearing sketchers. I wonder if Sketchers are aware that their shoes are damaging people?

It defies logic to me for a mfg to develop a running show w/arch support then cut the sole of the shoe extremely narrow thereby negating the built in arch support. Skechers is famous for their narrowing of the sole of their shoes right where the foot requires the most support ~ at the center ... the arch ... so when I saw they developed a shoe w(built in arch support I “assumed” (shame on me) they would take care of the narrow sole issue but sadly they did not. The shoes are narrower than regular medium width shoe as well. Their execution was poor on this design. WIDEN THE SOLE! Remember when SUV’s were getting negative reviews because they were prone to rolling over?? Well, the car manufacturers widened the wheel base and solved the problem. Hey Skechers, widen your wheel base ... your sole ... and provide more stability!! This isn’t rocket science people!! Sheesh!!

These shoes were super tight unfortunately. The toe box is really cramped. If you have wide feet these won't be any good.
