These might be the most comfortable Skechers I’ve owned
… and that’s saying something because I have owned at least half a dozen pairs of Arch Fit and other Skechers models. Worth noting that when I first put them on I felt that the heels were a little loose and “slippy.” I carefully tightened the laces starting at the bottom and working my way up. This did the trick and the fit is fantastic with very stable heels.

2023 UPDATE – DANG THEY ENDURED A LOT (A FRESH 2020 REVIEW!!! – Yeah, they’re pretty good.)
I wanted to leave a review for these shoes specifically because Amazon has a habit of throwing old reviews at the buyer rather than more recent ones. There aren’t many with a fair critique, or they resort to “omg it sucks/rocks”. So, here we go.After years of using TredSafe shoes due to just not having the money to afford fancy-shmancy, I bit the bullet on these shoes figuring I could at least default to other shoes if they didn’t work out. Also, a lot of reviews complained on durability and such, but they were recommended, so I went for it.Durability: Uhhhh, folks must have run over their pairs with a lawn mower to get them wrecked like they were, because wow have mine been accidentally kicked into and scraped by a LOT of old metal equipment and hardware with basically no damage. Really, the only damage was a screw I somehow stepped on, drilling a hole into the bottom. I mean, it didn’t poke my foot, so no harm done.Comfort: Okay, so memory foam is a big “your mileage may vary” situation, but generally the foam is pretty okay in these shoes. Seeing as I run around a lot more at my new job than I did my old one, these do pretty good at cushioning my 13W feet. Then again, I am also a tall dude, so the memory foam cushioning may not be as effective for me. It hasn’t been long enough to really wear it out either, but again, your mileage may vary. Also depends on whether you really understand memory foam, which I kind of don’t. I might be totally off-base.But anyways. Even without that, the general feel and support of the shoe is good. The fact that my heels basically never hurt after eight-hour shifts when they would tend to hurt in the old, cheap TredSafe shoes is a pretty good testament to that fact.The fit: It fits…? I mean, 13W feet, I bought 13W. It fit pretty much as expected. The only minor complaint I can make is more a special case: there isn’t a lot of room for inserts. See, I’m weird and have a tendency to put more pressure on the front of my feet than the heel, and not a shoe can be found at reasonable price for someone weird like me. I’d like to be able to fit some front support into the shoes to counter that, but there’s just not enough room. Maybe once I wear out the memory foam, but otherwise… Well, that’s a “me” thing. If you walk like a normal person rather than like I did as a kid to catch late-night TV without being caught, then you should be okay.Other stuff: One other minor complaint is just a typical sneaker issue but a bit worse. When the bottoms of the shoes get wet, walking on any kind of hard floor gives off an obnoxious squeaking sound. I don’t mean like “basketball court” squeaking. I mean like “twisting leather” squeaking. To be fair… They’re sneakers. They’ll make noise like that, but it’s usually not that annoying. They do dry out pretty quick so long as you don’t keep getting them wet, so it doesn’t last particularly long.So… Four stars? Yeah. They’re pretty good overall, and they sure do take a beating. I keep expecting something I do to rip it open, but there isn’t a single tear or crack anywhere (besides the hole from the screw). Main problem is just memory foam getting in the way of using inserts, lack of front foot support for those like yours truly, and the obnoxious wet squeak. Still a solid shoe, though. Worth the money.Update: 07/22/2023Just bought a second pair because the pair I use finally showed signs of serious wear, which is pretty impressive since I’ve used these shoes for almost everything from job work to yard work. They have had their soles handed to them regularly and only just now started actually falling apart in any measure. They aren’t dead just yet, but the shoes were on a good sale so I bought pair two ahead of time.I did end up wearing out the memory foam rather quick (but I also walk weird, so once again your mileage may vary) but pulling them out to replace with new inserts was really easy, so it was a simple swap-out. I will say it’s best to just swap for more memory foam since other “support” inserts didn’t help just because of the shoe’s own support.So yeah, running back in to say you REALLY have to try to destroy these shoes to make them fall apart: for having lasted 3 years of me, they’ve done a very good job staying together. They’re still comfortable, pretty good support, and make the annoying leather-twisting noise when wet, but I definitely think they’re worth the price, sale or not.

My husband’s favorite.
My husband is really hard on shoes and hard to fit into shoes. He has wide feet. He can fit into a regular width shoe, but it eventually distorts the shoe by stretching it out and it can’t be comfortable to wear. He loved this shoe so much that when the sole came unglued and came apart, he re-glued it and wore them for another year. He had these shoes for at least three years before they became unwearable and I bought a second pair for him. He loves the fit and the cushion of the insole. Says they are comfortable from day one and need no breaking in period. For my husband to have a shoe last three years is saying something about the shoe. He has tried a $200 shoe which literally did not last a year and cheap shoes that lasted no time. The Sketcher Afterburn is his favorite shoe…well favorite after the Sketcher slip ins he has discovered! Great comfort and value and it held up to my husband’s abuse.

These used to be a quality shoe, not so much any more
They are comfortable and support well but they do not last. I have purchased these for several years. I bought my most recent pair in April 2024 now in early August 2024 the soles have come off both of the shoes. Very disappointed

Love these shoes
The are very durable, sizes are great, generated foot support. Your footing is very stable with the hard and sturdy tread. Cleans easy too for lawn care pros.

This is my second pair
They are great, very comfortable. They have goods support and last me about six months.. I’m thinking the extra wide are too wide so, I will try the wide ( not extra wide). I think they’re a good value

Super comfortable
After a few rounds of the standard AMZ run of no-name brands, I decided to hop back to a name brand to see if there truly was a difference.In a word? Yes.These shoes are very comfortable. I’d kinda developed foot problems with these no name brands, and these also seem to alleviate the pain that came with those… Interesting.I’ve owned many pairs of Sketchers over the years, and these are the best I’ve had. The soles are excellent support, the width is something that actually made me laugh when I put them on. I have wide feet and they just “fit”. No break in needed.Another point I’d like to touch- soles- these are actual honest to no kidding rubber. I know that sounds dumb, but so many shoes these days use foam. Nice.Overall, I’m very pleased. I’ll update this if anything changes, but I feel I got my money’s worth, and can finally settle the question: Cheap shoes or good shoes…

Best shoes
I have bought these in 2 different colors for my husband. He loves them. He is 6’3 and most shoes are narrow and his pants run over the shoes. Not these. They are thick around the sides. I even bought me a pair in army green. Love them. I have purchased this one 2 times. .
