Not for Me, and my aching toes.
I purchased this shoe because of another Sketcher GO Walk shoe that I found very comfortable. This shoe was comfortable at first fitting, however as I walked in this shoe I became increasingly dissatisfied. The problem I am having is as I walk, due to the design of the soul of this shoe, I felt my toes driving forward in the shoe and squishing my toes in the toe box. Just standing in one place they feel very cushioned however as you walk the toe box problem removes any feeling of comfort. I would return these had I not worn them outside.

Severe back and knee pain.
I work in a career that requires a lot of standing and walking, and was told these would be heaven sent. On trying them on, they are. After a full shift on my feet, my back is killing me and my knees hurt worse than they have in years. As a test, I switched back to my usual brand. The pain vanished. You may draw your own conclusions, but since donating these to goodwill and buying a fresh pair of my regular brand and style my back and knees are pain free.

Need to keep tightly laced to get best benefit.
When laced properly, these shoes are great walking shoes. However, if you slip them on and off without re-tightening the laces periodically, the foot is not positioned correctly, and you don't get the full benefit of the comfy insole and heel padding.Update 8/22/20After 4 months of use, the padding inside the shoe on the left heel has not held up well at all, leaving a heel-sized hole in the "cushioning foam" of that portion of the shoe. Won't be buying another pair of these.

Best walking shoes I've ever had.
I just finished a 3.67 mile walk in these, the day after I received them. I've had great results with Skechers in the past, but tended to butt my second toe on the end of the toe box on long walks in the loafers. No such problem with these -- comfort, fit, ventilation, and lightness were all superior, and the laces help to better locate the foot and stop the toe bumping. Without a doubt these are the most comfortable walking shoes I've ever owned.FWIW, I wear a 9-1/2 in most shoes, but a 10 in Skechers.

Very good fit and feel to this shoe
If I could give these shoes six stars I would. They are lightweight with a fantastic soft and cushion-y sole that is great for my arthritic feet. I highly recommend these shoes for anyone, but especially for someone that suffers from foot pain derived from walking and/or standing with arthritic or flat feet problems.

Bottom of shoes falling apart
I would have given 5 stars for comfort if I was wearing them inside for work. I think I misunderstood the name "Go Walk" as after only 10 days of use walking a local paved trail, the bottom of the shoes are falling apart. It's a bummer because I thought I had finally found good "walking shoes". I was going to return them because based on the many positive reviews, I thought I just got a bad pair but they weren't that expensive so I will wear them till they fall apart & not order another pair.

Best sneakers I've ever worn!
These shoes are so comfortable because they fit so well; they've got a well-defined arch, and my heel really held in place by a nice reversed-shape cup. I need good foot support because of a disability and these really help. On top of these features they look darn good.

Wow these are nice
I needed a good shoe, partly due to my weight and joints, plus the fact I'm planning to start walking a little to fix that. I got a pair of those tongueless runners, but they didn't offer much cushion and were a pain in the A-- to put on (size 12). my sis works 12 hours in a warehouse and swears by sketchers, so I looked and chose these. They were relatively cheap ($39.00 for a 12), so i got them. These shoes are so nice, I put them on and left them on. I hate wearing shoes when I don't have to, if that tells you how comfortable they are. This is my first legit name brand shoe (uaually but walmart), now I kind of understand the hype

Very comfortable, but wear out fast
Skechers shoes are always really comfortable.I tend to find most shoes to be too narrow in the front, but Skechers have a wide toe box that always just fits for me.They're the only shoes I can buy without trying them on and know they will fit me comfortably.They don't last long though. I bought a pair of these less than a year ago, and already need to replace them - an issue that I've had with all other Skechers shoes I've bought. They tend to only last for 6-18 months.I probably use these to walk 2-3km a day on average.The inner fabric around the heel tends to wear out first, and in this pair the fabric on the side has split frm the sole now, leaving a large hole.

Perfect for my daily walk
I walk for about 2 miles a day around my local park, weather permitting, and my everyday walking shoes,although comfortable, were exacerbating my lower back ache. This is the first time that I have bought shoes on line, and only did so because of covid. After reading many reviews I felt that these would best meet my needs. I am very pleased with my purchase, they are light and extremely comfortable, like walking on air.Regarding fit, I ordered the same as my shoe size and they are a snug fit. If they did half sizes I would have ordered the next size. Too early to tell if they are helping with my back.

First Sketchers purchase
Bought these shoes in an attempt to find a more comfortable trainer. I succeeded. Shoe is very comfortable, accurate fit too, on my slightly wide feet. Like walking on cushions, takes a little getting used to at first, but great level of comfort. Would recommend.

Very very comfortable
These a very comfortable. They might seem exspensive, but for comfort they are a blessing.
