Men's Max Cushioning Elite - Advantageous Slip On

I’ve worked on my feet for 40 years. I’ve got back issues and rheumatoid arthritis, plus long legs so good shoes are a must! I need shoes with good arch support and decent cushioning so I got the Skechers Max and a pair of Hoka Bondi 9 to compare. I’ve had many pairs of Skechers over the years so I was leaning in that direction, but Hokas come highly recommended so off to the races! First off, the Hokas fit like a glove directly from the box. I wear a 13 regular and have found many brands to be boxy in my size. The Skechers are slightly looser but still form fitting, which is not unusual for slip ons. Walking around the house on wood floors, I found the Hokas to be very well padded and super comfy. The Skechers are slightly less padded but still very comfortable I did find the Hokas to add a few inches to my height, which caused a little concern because kitchen prep tables are already a little low for me. Both are excellent choices, although Hokas are more pricey. The deciding factor was arch support. Skechers have much better arch support adding height to my heel and midsole but tapering at the toe, which also gives slightly better balance, where Hokas are almost flat from heel to toe. I can’t speak for the slip resistant aspect of the Hokas but I have a coworker who wears them and hasn’t had any issues. I’ve always had good luck with Skechers in that are and these have a center channel on the sole which should help squish liquid away. Hope this helps!

I wasn't sure what to expect, but they are incredibly comfortable. And in a good way- solid fit like they refuse to come off with each step, which I never experienced in a shoe. This is the way it should be. I felt like I was walking on firm, solid cushion; perfect not "sqishy" or wiggly in any way, and I have feet that tend towards the narrow side. Lightweight with full support and they have great proportions- unusual for a size 13! Usually my size looks narrow and awkward. I'm also frugal when it comes to shoes (cheap) so I was a tiny bit hesitant to spend a hundred bucks even though I'm full aware that a good pair of shoes costs this much. I would certainly buy them again no question. I am impressed. UPDATE October 2024 Still holding up like new even though I wore them 95% of every day. I see they are 65 bux today - for the life of we don't understand why. In fact I just bought a pair for 25 dollars more and I am returning them because they don't fit nearly half as well, and they are raked forward so I feel like I am standing/walking at a downward angle- very unnatural. And they are Skechers SLip Ins too. I wanted a similar fit but not this time obviously.

Great shoe. Extreme comfort and easy on and off.

I bought these shoes for routine exercise walking on pavement, with hills. They work well for that duty, easily handing uphill and providing sufficient support for going downhill. Side-to-side support, not so much. I wouldn't recommend for hiking on hilly natural terrain. The step-in feature is great, and important for me as a senior citizen. This is why I bought them, to simplify putting them on. There is plenty of grip on the heel when walking. My knock on them is a still-developing concern that the soles are wearing down quickly. I tend to wear shoes down in a specific place, and I replace them when I can feel the shoe leaning from wear. These are wearing rapidly.

These are the best sketchers I ever bought. They are so comfortable the inner soul is real nice and thick and add so much cushion feels like you’re walking on clouds. This is the second pair of the exact same ones that I bought and I will buy more of these. They’re great.

I enjoy these shoes very much their very comfortable and have plenty of foot support.

Great comfortable shoe that has been durable as walking shoe

I buy these for my elderly uncle who has mobility issues and trouble using his hands. He really likes them. He says they are comfortable and easy to put on.

Bien pour l'été à l'automne l'air passe l'hiver un peut juste pour garder les pieds au chaud.

La calzata di questo articolo è veramente eccezionale, morbida comoda con una suola confortevole. La consiglio vivamente.
