Just loved this sketcher shoe; it was the correct size and width with a nice blue color with red accents. Unfortunately, the hyper pillars on the bottom of this shoe caused my back and legs to become exhausted trying to adjust to the bottom of the shoe. I am hoping to the same basic shoe with a more traditional sole.

I have a hard time getting the right size for Skechers. Depending on the specific pair, the best fit for me could range anywhere from size 10.5 to size 12, and could be medium or wide (never extra wide). In this case, I ordered an 11 wide, and it is a perfect, comfortable fit. The upper fit is very comfortable, and they do slide on easily without being too loose on my feet.
I slipped them on and they felt so good that I couldn't wait to walk in them. I ordered these to replace a pair of older Go Walks that have worn out, and I was expecting them to have the same padded, bouncy, walking-on-air feel as they older ones. To my disappointment, they do not. The soles are hard with little bounce or give. Though the fit is comfortable, walking on the sole feels more like a hard dress shoe. I bought them for the ultra-comfortable Go Walk feel, like you have clouds on your feet, and they are nothing like that. Maybe closer to a pair of Chuck Taylors. I am very disappointed in them, and will be sending them back.

Super comfortable shoe that is easy to slip on. Very supportive. Works great for my neuropathy and relieves problems with putting on lace-up shoes. Will buy additional pairs for sure.

Ordered for husband after careful shopping. It carful enough!
These are SLIP ON shoes, NOT lace ups as I put in Search.
The photo of dark reveals laces. WRONG. They are decorative strips of elastic sewn onto shoe so you could not put in real laces and tighten shoe as the loop on tongue is also sewn.

Not waterproof/resistant in ANY way.
Not warm/insulated in ANY way.
No lateral shoe structure to stop your ankles from twisting/rolling when walking on hills.
Soles/pillars wear out quickly.

These Go Walk 7 hands free slips ins, instead of regular laces, have sewn in place, non-adjustable elastic laces which apparently are intended to make the slip-in process go better. Look carefully at the photos. As a result, there is no possible adjustment to snug the shoes up tighter around the foot if needed. The toe box is wide; my feet rattle around in the medium width. So to make them fit properly, I had to cut out the sewn-in elastic laces and replace them with regular shoelaces. They fit better now, but don’t expect a great, nicely cushioned, supportive walking shoe. You get what you pay for.

Insole eroded after six months.
It is not replicable as it is glued to the flat surface of the bottom.
With eroded insole the shoe does not serv the purpose.
Needs improvement on the quality.

Slip-In design causes foot to move forward inside the shoe and hit my toes, especially on downhill walks, this caused an in-grown nail on my big toe. There needs to be more support by the uppers to prevent forward foot slip in the shoe but I guess this would cause issue with slip-in function. Just a design problem,

These shoes wore out after 4 weeks, I walk ten miles per week. The inside of the heel wore out and broke down. Worst part is the orange grips on the soul catch every stone of piece of debris on the ground, Had to keep picking out stones while walking and then pick them out when I got home. Really bad shoe from a practical point.

These are dangerous. Much too loose. Going down stairs is a real problem. They remind me of slippers. Not for everyday wear out and about. Unfortunately, now that I learned this, I cant return them. Not happy

Ordered these for hubby who has size 12 feet. No amount of trying, even with a shoe horn, could get these on his feet. How could they possibly be called slip-ins? Maybe Skechers Slip-ins just don't work for large feet. Returned. Won't try ordering for him again. Total disappointment.

Bought and worn once only
The shoe has a sloppy feel too loose
Cannot adjust the tightness of the elastic no tie laces
Just feels like a sloppy fit
I would recommend anyone interested should give a second thought to purchasing any sketchers with a no tie laces
Cannot return them because I worn them once
Would never buy again
