Nothing sketcy about Sketcher. A few years ago I had some major foot trouble so since then I have been careful to protect my hoofies with ankle support and molded foot inserts. None of that matters if you have lousy shoes. I first bought a pair of Skechers Men's Afterburn Memory-Foam Lace-up Sneakers at a small box store after seeing them advertised. Best cheap shoe I ever wore. Liked them so much that I just bought a backup pair here...but I didn't have to. My older pair is still going strong. Lastability. So, if you're not some kind of shoe diva and are looking for a good ride...get yours. I like 'em!

Great arch support and keen fashion appeal. Very comfortable.

Easy on and off. Great kicker slippers for keeping feet off the cold floors. I haven’t used them outside.

My husband wore these men's fashion oxford sneakers tonight for the first time. He says they're comfortable and he loves the tan leather. He didn't have any trouble lacing them up either which can be trouble for him sometimes. The soles are rubber with pure leather and fabric for the upper part of the shoes. They're comfortable to wear with the breathable mesh lining and Ortholite insoles that wick moisture and odor away. Helps to prevent fungus. My husband said the inside are very comfortable to wear as it has more cushion than he expected. The bottoms of the rubber soles have anti-slip traction for better movement even on rough ground.

These soles have memory foam inside and my husband loves them. He has plantar fasciitis and these shoes are really comfortable. Would rather order online when I know exactly what I want, as opposed to looking in stores.

AWESOME!!! My husband has neuropathy and skechers have absolutely been a blessing.

These shoes were a great value for the price. They fit well at the correct size, very light and comfortable, and seem well made. I have had them for a month now and they have held up very well. However, there is a concern that I do not see others have mentioned. The soles are slippery on a smooth surface, they do not seem to grip like most sneakers, and this problem has persisted. Overall, this is not a big problem for me, but I can see this could be an issue for some and felt I needed to mention it.

I bought some water shoes through Lands' End years ago, and their inside, next-to-the-skin portion was not nearly as smooth and comfortable as these shoes, but the construction and basic principle is the same.
These water shoes have a firm, rubber sole to protect the feet from rough ground, and they have a good grip on slippery rocks to prevent falls. These are closed-toe shoes, which means they also protect the top part of your feet and your toes.
They look, from a distance, as if they are just regular athletic shoes. However, unlike most athletic shoes, they do not use tie laces. Instead, they have an adjustible "bungee tie" system, which means your shoes will not come untied, and you can slip these shoes on and off and still have the shoe feel securely fastened.
These shoes have holes for draining water and a mesh construction on the upper part which both releases water and dries quickly when you return to land. Note that these shoes are "water ready" but not waterproof. They will definitely get wet.
As to size, if you will for some reason be wearing socks, then you might want to go up a half size from your normal size. These shoes are meant to be worn without socks.
These shoes would be perfect for wading in the ocean or a river or stream. They would be great for rafting, inner-tubing, or boating in general.
The color is a masculine charcoal with yellow trim, and they are technically made for men. However, if a woman knows her comparable size in men's shoes, I don't see why a woman could not wear these as well.
The price is rather steep for what these are, and that might give some people pause. I'd recommend shopping around and comparing prices before you decide on these.
