Super Comfortable. Professional. Sporty.
Super Comfortable. Perfect for work, running , winter ,summer ,office. I like that it’s leather so I polish it and no need to wash and wait till get dry so it’s new every day. and leather also good for winter.and I like it’s whole black so I can use it for professional occasions or even weddings. and very comfortable from upper and bottom as my feet are very sensitive.I wish they keep making it (with a more update as may be natural leather and longer life cushion and stronger rough bottom)I tried many Skechers shoes but this is the best

MY NEW HOLY GRAIL WORK SHOE.
I am a bartender with 15 years of experience, currently working in NYC, i work 4-5 days or nights (or combination thereof) per week, sometimes standing on my feet for 16 hours or more. I have had CHRONIC problems with my feet over the past few years- marble sized knots in the arches of both feet, excruciating to stand on, taking 30 minutes or more to get out of bed in the morning and walking like my feet are bird feet, all curled up at the arches. I was skeptical as hell to try anything like a simple sneaker to fix this. Mind you i have worn 20 eyelet doc martens since i was age 13, and i am now age 34.... so even though the sneaker is CUTE AS HELL and makes my size 10 foot look MUCH smaller than it is.... i was like, "eh, not docs, not my thing but ill give it a shot bc the pain i am experiencing is TOO MUCH". .... so far ive made it through 3 - 12 hour BUSY bar shifts (running around, really hustling, and both bars i work at are very long so i am covering a lot of area while working) - i give these FIVE STARS or MORE if i could. i have NEVER experienced a walk home after a long shift thinking "wow... my feet actually feel... GOOD!!!!" The arch support is wonderful, the scoop in the inner ankle area makes it so you dont have blisters or rubbing on your ankle, there is sufficient padding in the back of the shoe (no blisters on my heels), the sole is VERY good at keeping you from falling on your face (even on wooden slats that i have behind my one bar - milano's bar in nyc, one of the oldest in the city) and they are equally as good on modern rubber mats - allowing movement without sticking your foot in one place to twist your ankle, but giving you a very safe feeling that you will not be slipping even on wet beer or liquor soaked surfaces. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone in the service industry give this sneaker a try, for the price it is worth a shot, even if you arent experiencing horrific foot pain. LOVE THEM.

These shoes saved my feet, so I can do my job
I have to say that these shoes have saved my career.I recently started a job where I am standing on my feet all day long. I had been wearing shoes that I thought would be great (walking type shoes), and boy, what a surprise - my feet were really, really suffering. I came home with numbness and soreness to the point I couldn't walk without feeling terrible pain. So, I ordered a pair of really expensive orthotic-style shoes. I had seen amazing reviews so I thought I'd be good to go with those shoes. Nope... one day wearing them actually made my feet WORSE - they were more numb than they were before. In tears and desperate to function at work without being in agony, I did some research and came across these Skechers. Praying that they could work, I ordered a pair.A few weeks later, I am happy to say that these shoes have been amazing for me. Slowly, wearing these shoes, my feet are starting to feel more normal. They are still a bit numb, but much better than before. Now, at the end of my shift, I can walk to my car with minimal discomfort. The shoes are nice and wide (I have wide feet), leaving plenty of room for my feet (especially in the toe box) to expand as they swell during the day. There is enough padding that the heels and balls of my feet feel pretty good when standing and walking. The rubber sole is skid resistant, and trust me, they are (sadly, that's been tested once or twice, ha!).So if you are in need of good work shoes, these might work for you. They've been a lifesaver for me.

Pain-Relief, But Not Pain-Free
Personally, I found the shoes to be a little small, even in the size that I usually get in all shoes, which is 9.5. Another reviewer mentioned how these shoes helped them be pain free, even when standing for 10+ hours straight, and that was why I bought them; however, I have found that my feet have still started hurting at around the same time they always do, which was kind of disappointing.Other than that, I find these shoes to be very comfortable, especially when standing for short periods of time. I wear these all the time and it helps my feet feel good in the short run. In the long run, when the pain does come on from standing for long periods of time, the pain isn't as blunt as it was before, if that makes sense. It helps with the pain in my feet, but it does not make it go away unfortunately. This may be different for other people though, so don't lose hope!For the most part, they are slip resistant. I work in retail and I have found that I slip less often when squatting up and down to hang tags and the like. Dust and dirt do cling to the bottom of the shoes, so I recommend washing the bottom sometimes, and the slip resistant quality will be more useful.Overall, these shoes are very nice. I wear them frequently for work and when not at work. Are they perfect? No. Do they get rid of the pain totally for me personally? No.With these thoughts in mind, I recommend these shoes to those who need pain-relief, but not to those expecting to be pain-free.
