Nice Service Shoe
I ordered this shoe in place of the several pairs of similar Skechers I have worn out at work. They were good too, but not available any more. I waited a while to review this model as they wore in. I actually prefer these now. My use is in a nightclub, but they seem suitable for any light duty service work. They are comfortable enough that I don't need to order the cushion pads I used with the Skechers. Six month or so edit: for mass production shoes, these are the best I have worn. I still don't need inserts and the flat outer soles help keep my feet from hanging up on obstructions when I need to move quickly. I hope these don't go out of production too.

Good shoes, and they can be better after this add-on...
I am satisfied with these size 9-1/2's, (U.S.) and as I wore them the first couple of days (exercising on a treadmill only on INCLINE LEVEL 4 and a speed of 4.5) they worked out pretty well, no real complaints.I had ordered some RJ-Sport Tieless Elastic Shoe Laces - Heavy Duty No Tie Shoelaces (delivered next day), also from Amazon, these made it all worthwhile! If you don't know about these, get a pair, then if you put them on correctly, (some people don't) you should be a lot happier with ANY shoe, not just these.(I wrote a review on the laces too, if you look at the Reviews and use "Newest First", I should be there explaining more about these laces)When I got my laces for another pair of tennis shoes that I wear I tried them out on the treadmill, it was literally like walking on a cloud! Of course, I have had these shoes for several years, they are well broken in too, I just never wear them, they are a half size too small. (size 9) You may think that odd, but, if you think about it, these laces are elastic (stretchy) so they allow your feet to be less stressed while walking, standing, or running. My foot (I'm thinking) was allowed to be at its widest, meaning, it had all of the room they needed, so these older shoes were no longer too small. It was just that my foot was just being cramped up in a shoe that needed to be wider. These laces made that happen, so they may be for you too.Exercising in these shoes after the laces made it to where it is effortless on my treadmill. (I am 68, but in pretty good shape) The laces make it much more comfortable that it can feel as though you are walking on air, almost. :)Anyway, back to the shoes... (Size 9-1/2) U.S.These appear to be made well, in this day and age most things are made very cheaply, as in, 'junk', but these look and feel as good as any other pair that I have owned. They look good, have no weird plastic odors like some things do, they are silent when walking, when some aren't, and no stress points that irritate your feet, at least on me.Nothing stood out bad or exceptionally good about these, which is good, I guess, usually, it's always bad, so there's that.Since I have not used them too long I can't say much about the longevity of these, hopefully they will be as good as the (positive) reviews said.I looked and looked, these were the best for the money that I could find, well, that comes in white, and 'my style'. Most times that is hard to accomplish.If there are any CONS, I don't know what it would be, but for the PROS, I'm happy, so that says something!Please do yourself a favor and check out either those laces that I mentioned, or, search around on Amazon and find the ones that you feel are best for you. I'm not connected to any of the companies, I just really love the laces. I loved them so much that I put them on another pair of 'tennis shoes' and also a pair of hiking boots. I have three more pair of shoes that I will be getting laces for also. So, I like them and really am happy that I found some.You should also love these shoes too! :)

Good Shoes
Typical shoe design- nothing unique about it. It is bult better than a generic brand you can tell just by looking at it, but I also know from having Reeboks in the past. But unlike most Reeboks the design is very generic and doesn't stand out. I didn't realize it when I ordered, but these are meant to be work shoes (for example if you work in a restaurant and have to wear non-slip shoes). So they look similar to work shoes from other brands except built a little better, slightly sharper looking. A decent amount of cushioning- not super thin like some shoes not super thick but mid range. Has a little more padding than some shoes for standing or walking around. The sole seems to be of decent thickness- don't know what is with the other reviews saying its thin.One reason I buy Reebok is because they have wide shoes that fit me better (just the regular size). So I was surprised that they were offering extra wide since Reeboks already come wide. I got this shoe and its still wide compared to other brands but its slightly less wide than Reebok normally is- by just a hair. Length is the same. It still fits me.I go with Reebok because the size fits me, they look good, and they last a decent amount of time (6 months to over a year wearing them daily). I can pay half the price for a generic brand but they only last half as long so I consider Reebok the better value in most cases.
