   Comfortable with protection
   More up dates: This shoes still left my feet feeling comfortable. I also mentioned that it has help with my plantar fasciitis. To clarify further, you do have to wear this shoes with the right inserts made for plantar fasciitis, for arch support, in order to go through an 8 hr day a lot less painful.After a week or two of wearing this shoes, it felt very comfortable so far. It helps with my plantar fasciitis. Has arch support. I managed to work up to 8 hrs with less pain than before I bought this product. The shoes seem sturdy and well made and of good quality so far. It fits well. Another important feature is toe protection, steel toe protection. Don’t know about durability. The shoes does look stylish. if this pair could last me more than a year then I am happy. But I will post an update in about 6 months.

   Good shoe and good price.
   I ordered a size 11 (US) and in some shoes I need a wide. This pair is comfortable and I bought a pair of arch support insoles. The heel has a cushion so when I’m walking it’s softer on my heel which my legs are not getting the shock of every step. My feet aren’t sore after an 8 hour shift. They feel lighter than the shoes I’ve had from Red Wing and Keen. I’m not impressed with Memory Foam insoles by any footwear company. So far these are a good shoe and good price. I’ll see how they hold up in a year.

   Very comfortable and lightweight, not slip resistant
   Very comfortable, a lot more so than my Keens that I tried out. I work in a machine shop for 10-12 hours a day and just with the stock insoles, my feet don’t hurt by the end of the day. I will be putting insoles in them soon since I don’t think the memory foam ones they come with will last long. This is my second pair of Skechers, and they definitely deliver on comfort right out the box. I have a little bit of a wider front toe box, and they give me enough room where I don’t feel cramped, but I also don’t slip around. They run true to size for me compared to my tennis shoes. Breathable compared to my keens, kept my feet pretty cool throughout my day. Good support, definitely for mid high arches. Flexibility isn’t great right out the gate but neither were my last pair of Skechers, they needed a little break in before they started to flex and give. Lightweight like composite. Only negative thing is if you work around coolant in machine shops, they are not slip resistant whatsoever, even though it doesn’t say slip resistant, it said good traction control, I think that’s more for dry conditions. I fear for my life when I have to step into my machine on the table that has coolant on it, feel like I’m on black ice lol. For the price, definitely worth it if you don’t need something that’s slip resistant.

   Very comfortable steel toes
   Great work shoe, very comfortable, feels like a gym shoe but with steel toes. Best steel toes I have bought so far.

   Stiff Sneaker
   Now that I’ve had these for a month now, and wear them 12 hours a day 5 or 6 days a week, I feel confident they’ve had time to break in. Initially, they were a little stiff. I expected them to be a little tight, so I ordered half a size larger than regular sneakers, but I realized that appears unnecessary as there is plenty of room in the toe.After a couple of days I started to feel a seam in the liner that was bothering me across my little toe, and I was not wearing these every day yet, but I decided to press on to see if they broke in by wearing them daily and eventually I forgot about it. When I remembered I realized they were no longer bothering me. That was about a week. I’ve now worn them four weeks.I spray them with Tinactin deodorant after every use, because my foot gets fairly wet with sweat after 12 hours and I’ve previously had trouble with athletes foot. I know fungus can build up in shoes worn too often, and this can not only cause athletes foot, but also break down the material in the shoe itself. The shoe needs to dry out between uses.Also worth noting, the memory foam insole is comfortable, but not my preference. It is not however, removable, and there is insufficient space to double-up insoles. I have run in these a fair distance and short jaunts, and kicks, and side-stepping and have never felt the steel toe. The sole is stiff and squeaks on some surfaces, and walking through puddles causes no leaks. The top is tuff also, minor scrapes cause no damage. Of course YMMV, I wear these in a warehouse only and change in the car. They are a little dusty from the black dust in the warehouse, but no dirt or mud. Mud and salts can dry the material and cause cracking and rotting. How some have reported such damage so quickly I cannot say, but these appear to hold up very well for my usage, although I do believe the insole will be the first to go. Which is why I don’t like memory foam for insoles. They are great for comfort for a large variety of foot shapes, but they are not as durable as a specific-shaped insoles. I plan on getting a black pair to alternate with these.The only desires I have in these is a composite toe that doesn’t set off a metal detector, and a lower price. I ordered the beige style that is somehow twice the price of the black style. I don’t know the difference as to why. $50 is outstanding, $90 is worth it, but why pay more?Update 6/14/24After about six months the insoles finally crapped out. When I finally got around to ripping them out they came out easily, I guess the glue broke down over time. Now with new insoles they are fully functional again and the outer is still in good condition, see image.

   Comfortable Shoe for Heavy Work
   I load trucks full of auto parts. Mufflers, batteries, rotors, wheels, etc. Lots of heavy lifting 6 days a week and these shoes are not only very comfortable but durable as well.Lifetime was 10 months which with my line of work was pretty good as I’ve had other shoes around the same price break down a lot faster.Highly recommended.
