Reviewer D Templeton
First off, I wear a size 14 in most shoes, including Five Ten Freerider mountain biking shoes. These are only made up to a 13. I heard that they come a little large though and decided to try them out. I'm not sure if this is true across all sizes, but the 13 is more like a 13.75. They ended up fitting me very well. So, be careful on the size.
The main reason I bought these though is that I LOVE the Stealth rubber soles on my MTB shoes and wanted to try out a pair of hiking/approach shoes from Five Ten. Even though the tread pattern doesn't look terribly aggressive, these are the best gripping trail shoes I've owned. They are comfortable all around with a reasonably wide toe box and good cushioning at the top of the tongue and under the ankle. The soles are stiff and took a little while to break in. I still wouldn't say they've "softened" all that much though. The bottom of the shoe is pretty stiff and the inner sole is not very cushy. They are comfortable for wearing all day though. I recently traveled with them for 10 days as my only pair of shoes both walking around town and hiking. So, they're fine. If you like a soft sole or lots of padding though, these are definitely not for you.
The only complaint I have is that these shoes do not breathe well at all. They're mostly a soft leather with a little bit of mesh. The mesh is thick though. My feet get hot in lots of shoes, but these are very hot. The flip side is that they do a decent job of keeping moisture out. During rainy hikes, my feet have stayed pretty dry. For me, the durability is nice. I've beaten up a lot of shoes hiking and I can tell these are going to hold up well. They're very well made and solid.
Overall, I really like these shoes. You just have to be good with the tradeoffs. They choose durability, grip and stiffness over being lightweight and breathable. And I feel like I should repeat that they are not cushy. They have stiff soles, but flex enough to walk around in all day no matter what the terrain. Give them a try if that's what you're after.

Good pair of work shoes. This is my second pair. The last pair lasted 8 months. They are comfortable. They give good support and are lite weight.

I’m quite “confused” by these shows. They are made in China. “Puno King” is a Chinese company selling on Amazon. On the size it shows “RP Crew”. After doing some research. . . I still have no idea what it stands for. I’ve found the same design on some shirts. . .but no other information. I know that RP can stand for Roleplay. . . But as far as being a “Hip-Hop Fashion Statement”. . .. Who knows. If you really like the “RP part. . .This same company offers other shoe options where the RP is in Black and shows-up more.
These shows are heavily padded around the ankle as well as on the tongue. There is nice padding on the footbed, but next to no arch support. The sole is non-skid rubber. Because of the rubber sole; these shoes are a little bit heavier than some other options.
Overall I like them. . . but. . .at the current price of thirty-seven bucks. . . I think they are kind of expensive for Made in China shoes.

Great shoes ... so comfortable they are my around the house shoes on our hardwood floors (in place of my old slippers that just don't compare). They fit like I expected and the wide width is so nice compared to so many shoes that only come in standard or medium width ...

It's funny how things go - these shoes I might have worn two decades ago. They have that slacker feel (in a good way, of course). Very comfortable, very simple. Size is absolutely dead on. I'm a 13 in sneakers, mostly because of width, but I can often take a 12 in boots. These look fairly thin, but not ugly-thin like a lot of sneakers, but the comfort width-wise is there, and my ankles don't come up in the back, so the fit is just right.
Seems like the price swings wildly from one size to the next. These are some shoes I'd snap up if my size happens to be on the cheap end!

Great made shoes, but size is smaller than last pair I bought my husband. Surprising since it's the same style. Next time I will order bigger size.

I have worn Sketchers for a while now, being addicted to the women's GoWalk style. I ordered these for my husband, he had been complaining that his shoes were heavy and uncomfortable before too long on his feet. He was rather skeptical of my sales pitch, that the shoes are amazingly light in weight, provide great arch support and are comfortable all day long, but I ordered them for him anyway. When they arrived he tried them on and bounced about the house like a little kid! He said he had never worn shoes that were so comfortable - he was sold. Bought two more pair in different styles for himself. Fit as they should, no issues at all.

I am impressed with these shoes. Be careful if adding in soles it may make it tight. I use a heel and arch support for extra comfort. A full heel to toe in sole made the shoe tight at the front.
