Skechers Sport Men's Equalizer 2.0 True Balance Sneaker Review

Got these for my son to replace his VERY worn out Skechers work shoes purchased a year ago at a shoe store for almost twice the cost. These are almost identical to that pair though they don't seem quite as durable (however, that remains to be seen). My son loves them. Said they were comfortable right off the bat, no breaking in needed. He's on his feet all day, did a lot of walking, 8 hours or more, and said he's had no issues with these shoes at all. He has wide feet so the wide width for him perfectly. Hopefully this will last as long as the work shoes did. If so, these will be worth more than the money paid considering they cost almost half of what his old Skechers work shoes cost.

Great shoes! Have extra wide feet and the 3Es fit perfectly

They look good as work sneakers. Nice and light but seemingly quite durable (only had them for a week thus far so time will tell). Good grip on bottom. Decent support. I spend 8+ hours a day on my feet and so far these seem to be decently supportive and quite comfortable. Good price. Happy with thus purchase so far.

I think I ordered about four or five different pairs of shoes to try, and this is one that was fairly comfortable right from the get-go. Lots of padding. Shoes seem to be consistent left to right, which surprisingly is not always the case. I can't really say too tight or too loose. It fits as expected. I did add some orthotic insoles as the stock cushioning was not quite enough for me. The laces seem to stay put, and do not need to be double knotted.The one disappointment (and it's actually a big one) is these are definitely not slip resistant. They are actually really horrible in the cold. I'm in Alaska, and when the bottom of these get cold in the snow, the pattern on the bottom is so fine it glazes over. Feels like you're on ice skates if you walk on something like hardwood floor or laminate. I've about fallen on my butt a half-dozen times with these things. You really need to kick off the snow and make sure they're really dry before you start walking on a smooth surface. Even then expect to slip.I'd give these 5 stars otherwise, but these are dangerous shoes on smooth surfaces when coming in from the cold.

Wish the soles would wear longer, but they are comfortable during warmer months.

I acquired a pair of these several years ago at Sears for hiking and long walks. They are remarkably comfortable. Reasonably lightweight and very VERY cushiony. After heavy use for 3 years or so, they wore out, the lace holes at top ripped and tread wore out so when it rained, they became quite slippery on smooth surfaces. They also are not at all acceptable for rain or snow...porous as heck. So i thought I'd shop around and try something else. I did - in fact worked through 2-3 pairs of hiking shoes but, after use of these Skechers, nothing came close to the comfort and cushioning. I don't think you'll find another shoe quite like it for purposes described here. So I went back to Sears and, ooops, forgot, no more Sears in these parts but fortunately found a pair sold here on-line. Now I'm a happy camper once again. My walks and hikes are like walking on air. They also provide reasonably good support for my ankles and are reasonably stable on rough terrain. The only drawback, again, they don't protect against rain and after some use, you'll loose the tread and lace holes may rip. But But they're low cost so just buy another pair as I did. A big five star for me.

These shoes are comfortable and true to size. Color is nice. Quality is good. The sole is strong. Would buy again.

I rebuy these shoes every 4 months. I work retail and walk a lot so I worry about quickly. Good basic shoe for wide feet.
