Defiantly will buy again
I bought these shoes for my husband (he is on the bigger side) and we both were impressed with how well they check all the boxes.Fit: True to size with just enough wiggle room.Functionality: He’s on his feet a lot, and these have held up great during daily wear—everything from working in the yard to running errands. The traction is reliable, and they feel stable on different surfaces.Style: The design is clean and sporty. They look good with both athletic wear and casual jeans, which is a plus when you don’t want to change shoes constantly.Arch Support & Cushioning:This was a big one for us. The cushioning is solid—plush enough to absorb impact, but firm enough to feel supportive. He says the arch support makes a real difference and his feet feel less tired at the end of the day.

Like Walking on Pillows
Simply put, these are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn in my life.I’ve got really wide duck feet, and shoe shopping has been the bane of my existence. Every single pair of shoes I’ve ever owned were either wide enough but too long, or the perfect length but too tight. That is until I bought a pair of these in 2023. Right out of the box, they fit perfectly on all sides, which is no easy feat. Even better, they absorb so much of the shock of walking that it’s easy to forget I have them on. Since the padding pretty much feels like a yoga mat, it kind of molds itself to the contours of your feet and—at least in my personal experience—provides more adequate support where needed.I walk a good bit (3-7 miles a day), and these suckers are my best friends throughout those walks. Not only for the aforementioned comfort, but also for their breathability. My feet get ridiculously hot if I cover them for too long, so the mesh material used for these is a godsend. With every step I take, I can feel the air moving through the shoes. And since it’s pretty much one solid piece, there aren’t awkward seams in weird places digging into the tops of my feet like some other shoes (even other Sketchers shoes I’ve tried have this issue).I’m sure there are more rugged shoes on the market (I usually get about 9 months to a year out of these before I need to replace them), but I’m okay with trading a little durability for comfort and a perfect fit. If Sketchers keeps making these shoes, I’ll keep buying them, and I’ll keep recommending them.

Only pair of sneakers that properly fits me
I’ve purchased these shoes 9 times. I will probably buy more of them. As a warehouse worker, busting my tail everyday, constantly on my feet, moving and lifting, one pair of these will last about 3 months for me. One of two things will go first, either the insoles, or the treads on the bottom of the sneaker. It is usually the treads, they’ll end up more or less completely flat at the forefoot by 3 months. I just wish more than anything that the treads would be updated to be made of a harder, thicker, longer lasting (maybe even nonslip!) material. The insoles I can replace, though hard to find with my foot size, with these Sketchers in size 13 X-Wide, the Wide Run 619 insoles in size 15 fit pretty well (insoles are wider in the midfoot, but they still work fine, even better actually if you find the sneakers aren’t wide enough there.)My forefoot measures 5 inches in width, which is frankly ridiculous, and it makes it close to impossible to find shoes of any kind that don’t agitate my feet. Frankly, these shoes would be no different, if it weren’t for the soft, flexible mesh lining on the outside. My forefoot sticks out a little bit, but because of the mesh, I don’t run into any pain or friction. These are the only sneakers I’ve found that properly fit my feet, aside from the diawin Diabetic Wide Shoes (the ones with the velcro strap) in size 14 X-Wide Men. Those sneakers are flat on the bottom, don’t have much cushioning, and the Wide Run 619 insoles don’t help very much in those. I am still in the process of ordering insoles for them, attempting to find any that actually work via trial and error. (why don’t any of these companies put width measurements on their product pages!!!! ahh!!!)The price of these fluctuate often. Install a price tracking extension, like Keepa, and look at the Buy Box history, maybe set some alerts. It may be a good idea to buy a bunch of them at once when they go a bit cheaper.

So comfortable.
Why did you pick this product vs others?:These are the comfiest sneakers ever. They feel great on my feet. I usually walk about 2 hours after work and these make the walk so much easier. The cushion support is great. I went with the all black and the still look new.

Estos zapatos cambiaron mi vida.
Todos los zapatos que he comprado en mi vida me han quedado apretados, nunca encontré zapatos de mi talla en mi ciudad, igual no es que buscara mucho, yo nunca fui de usar mucho zapatos, aunque puede que sea porque siempre me quedaban mal, al menos hasta que me compre estos, casi lloro al descubrir lo bien que se siente tener unos buenos zapatos de tu talla, incluso por mi inexperiencia en esto, los compre de una talla un poco superior, y me quedaron un poquito grandes, lo cual no me supone ningun problema, valio totalmente la pena, simplemente 10/10 y muy God.
