Very Nice Shoes
Shoe fit and comfort is a very personal thing, these fit me very well, nice arch support and cushiony heel. Although they for sure are not for all. I ordered 3 pairs of shoes to try on and select what was best for me. In the past I have worn the 3 brands I ordered, Asics, New Balance and these. Asics were too short, toes hit, and New Balance which have been my last 3 pairs, we not as well made as the Skechers, by a big margin. The sole was extremely thin and the shoe flimsy.So try what you think you might like and return the others. (Amazon probably hates this}. But these are nice shoes.

Light and Comfortable.
Great product! I have a hard time finding wide shoes that are comfortable. I can be on my feet for hours and walk miles with no problems. Also love the high arch and how light they are. Only complaint is that the souls don’t have much grip, and can slip easily in loose surfaces. Still most comfortable shoe I’ve found that fits me, have bought a few pairs, and will buy more.

Good price, but lesser quality
I am an average-size man in my sixties. I strive to walk 2-3 miles several times per week. I have been a casual runner, now walker for years, having worn most of the name running shoes -- Nike, Brooks, New Balance and Hoka. As I have had several pairs of Skechers casual shoes that I really liked, I considered giving Skechers walking shoes a try. My old knees don't like pounding the pavement and the expensive shoes did not help that much. So I decided to pay half as much and try Skechers. My son is a serious runner and thought the Skechers were a decent option, given my relatively light mileage.I definitely need a wide shoe, so ordered my usual 9.5 Wide. This was the right size for me. My only complaint after walking in them several times is that they are a little tight across the top near the toes. Maybe not as wide as my previous New Balance pair in 4E. The comfort and cushion are OK, not great. I walked once last week in my old New Balance shoes and was disappointed to realize they felt as comfortable as these new Skechers.But at the much lower price, I am satisfied with these shoes. I am a bad heel-striker, sometimes seeing wear on shoes very quickly. So far so good on these shoes. I am confident I will get my money's worth from these shoes. How fast the heels wear down will probably determine if I buy another pair or go back to the more expensive shoes.

Perfectly comfortable
Bought these for an upcoming trip where I'll need to do a lot of walking. I bought the wide-width. These fit well, are comfortable, and breathe. They're also very light (for packing) but these are so comfortable I plan on using them for the flight.

Good value for arch supportive shoe.
I was seeking a supportive shoe that didn’t look like the quintessential “dad shoe,” and this shoe is fit for that and looks good for everyday work and leisure. As a heavy man, I abuse shoes with a lot of prolonged and frequent standing and walking. These shoes support well; not too harsh on the longitudinal arch in standing, and feels reactive to stepping, especially with heel strike. Some may not like the springy step, which could accentuate instability at the ankle, but I like it’s comfort on rocky or uneven ground. The added outsole support helps as the shoe ages because the insole has already lost some support with prolonged use. There is some support for over-pronation, but I wouldn’t purchase it specifically for that need. By design, the shoe is light weight and breathable, which I appreciate, but then the trade off is that it’s not at all water resistant. It is non marking, has good traction, and several months in, it is maintaining a good tread. I generally don’t get much more than about 6 months out of shoes, and going on 3 months, these are wearing better than others I’ve recently had especially the outsole and areas that tend to fail like the sides of the flexing point on the top of the shoe/toe box. A bonus I like is that the laces are slightly elastic, and that helps maintain the shoe’s support even if laces loosen a bit before tying again. Overall, I would purchase again.

Comfortable with limitations
Very comfortable out of the box.Lateral support not very good, so these are probably ok for light duty walking of level surfaces but not much else. Could use better insoles with arch support that hold up more.Durability was average. Insoles needed replacement in about 4 months of average use. Bottom treads wore smooth in about 6 months. Other than that they held together ok.Breathability is ok but these definitely get ripe in the summer. I had to air them out and clean often.Overall ok and good price but I think you'd get better bang for your buck purchasing decent running sneakers or higher end shoes.These need better lateral and arch support to be practical for most people.
