Furthermore, the electrical hazard rating enhances its appeal for jobs in potentially dangerous environments.

This is the best casual shoe I can recall having. I love the removable memory foam insert for comfort. It's ultra light weight, slips on and off easily, provides a secure supportive fit, and is washable, though I haven't had to do that. Light weight, non-slip, fashionable appearance. EXCELLENT everyday show !!
I've purchased many pairs of these shoes and I wear them almost exclusively for the next couple of years until they can't handle the abuse anymore. They are great chefs shoes because they are comfortable all day long, have no slip soles, and slip on and off without any problems.
Ok it's been a few weeks and I need to update this. These are very warm. I thought they would loosen up as I wore them but they are still very snug which causes my feet to get very hot and sweaty. The pair I have that aren't slip resistant are nice and comfy but these feel like they might have been a fraction of a bit smaller because they are tight and not getting looser and very hot after working a few hours. I still love them, but thought I should update it. Thanks.I have a pair of these exact shoes in the normal sole that isn't slip resistant and they have been my favorite shoes I've ever had. They are light, comfortable, and have lasted me over a year and a half which is way longer than any other shoes I've had for work. But they were slippery on wet floors. The fabric inside around the heels and toes has started to rub off which was to be expected having them for so long so I tried to get another pair. I found them here for about $20 less than the stores had them. Then I happened to stumble upon these slip resistant ones that the stores didn't have and got so excited.So I've had these a few days now and they are just like the others except they have a lot better grip on the tiled floors at work. They are super light, and fit well. I'm a size 12 and these are a little snugger than the other ones were. I am thinking the interior padding might be thicker because they hug my feet very snug. Like across the top of foot they are tight but it is only day 3 and they will get looser. Thinner socks would help but I don't have any of those.I would definitely get these again. They are the first shoes from Skechers I've had that have lasted longer than 3 months (Well these are a new pair, but I'm talking about the other pair). No they don't look good with a suit, but they are so comfortable that I don't care. I'm thinking I might stock up on them because I know they change designs every year or so and I want to have these for a long time. My doctor has a blue pair and when he saw mine he was telling me how much he loves his and we had a whole conversation about the trouble of finding something comfortable and light weight that lasts a long time. So there you go, I guess they're doctor approved too :)
I have been wearing the Skechers GoWalks, for the last couple of pairs I have worn. They were extremely comfortable (like walking on a cloud). I decided to try out the Skechers Work shoes, this time around. I thought it might be good to have the non-slip sole, since I work in a restaurant.My first impression, upon trying them on, was that they were not comfortable, at all. Kind of like walking on rocks. I should add some clarification though, that the upper part of the shoe is very comfortable, and has better support, than the GoWalks. But, the insoles/outsoles are definitely not. The outsoles do seem to be good for non-slip, unless you are walking on ice, which I quickly found out (we had just had our first big winter storm, shortly before these arrived). I was slipping and sliding all over the place, which also wasn't the case with my almost completely worn smooth GoWalks. I think it must have something to do with the GoWalks having a much softer outsole (creating more friction with the ground), and the Work shoes having a very stiff outsole. That being said, when walking around at work, the shoes do seem to serve their non-slip purpose.As for the water-resistance, I am not fully convinced. I had plenty of opportunity to test that out, when the snow turned to slush and puddles. I think the scotch-guard coating probably helps, a little. But, then again, you could always just spray scotch-guard (or camp-dry, or whatever water-proofing product you want) on any pair of shoes.After wearing them for maybe a little over a week now, I feel like the insole is a little more comfortable than they were, when I first got them. But, the work shoes are still not nearly as comfortable as the GoWalks. My feet always hurt, well before my shift is over, now. I think, next time, I will go back to their walking shoes, and just live without having the non-slip soles (I never really had any problem with slipping, anyway). I would love it, if they would put the soles from the GoWalks, with the uppers, from these shoes. That would be about perfect (except for not being non-slip).
These shoes feel great don't make legs feel sore after all day on cement floors. Soles don't look worn even after been wearing for 6 months. Would highly recommend these on my 5th pair.
I have always loved sketchers these shoes, very versatile. Sometimes they’re difficult to find. Comfortable and fit perfectly. The nonslip soles are a plus. I strongly recommend issues.
I love these shoes. Slip on is great. No more shoe laces to come undone 10 times a day.
