Skechers Men's Segment Rilar

...of these guys. As someone with peripheral neuropathy, foot discomfort and pain are the usual, so there's not much more important to my daily dress routine than my shoes. There's nothing that focuses your mind on the feel and fit of your shoes quite like chronic foot pain, and for the last 8 years or so, these have been my shoes.Since they're not listed on Sketchers website anymore, I think the product is discontinued, and remaining stock is NOS. A real shame, because these are awesome shoes. I've been wearing these for daily work (office/business casual, and managerial-type jobsite stuff), and they've been lasting about 2-3 years or so per pair there, then another several years of wear if you don't necessarily care what they look like--2 years of average use will scuff up any pair of shoes. One of the best aspects of this shoe is its ability to work in all types of environments, and if you're okay with shoes that look a little worn, you can wear these things for a very long time. I still wear my original pair if I'm doing something I know will be messy, muddy, oily, or whatever.The existing footbed and insole are fantastic--I really like Sketchers Relaxed Fit line. While I now wear prescription orthotics soles in my shoes (including these), the Sketchers Relaxed Fit insoles are very nice, about like having a brand new pair of quality drugstore insoles installed. Walk as far as you want, your feet will be as comfortable as they can be. These insoles will eventually wear out, but they will probably last longer than the outsoles; keep buying drugstore insoles to stretch the service life, because there will be plenty of life left when those give up.The toe box is nice and wide; nice if you've got some bunions or some such, as there's room for your toes to do what they gotta do, and space for them to be there. The upper is nice and sturdy; while they don't protect your feet as well as boots, they do protect them better than most shoes, and certainly most shoes you'd consider for a business casual dress code. They probably feel a little more like boots than office shoes, which I guess is fine by me.The outsole is thick rubber, which is awesome, but somewhat soft--great for comfort, less so for wear. The soles will be the first thing on these to start showing wear, and honestly, the outsoles wear much more quickly than they should. But, don't let those wearing soles fool you; still plenty of life left in the shoes, even after the soles wear down past the lugs (meaning the soles are almost completely treadless). The softer rubber compound provides more traction than you'd think in an urban environment, and provide plenty of purchase even after you've worn off the treads of the soles. The treads themselves aren't all that good to begin with--pretty shallow, large blocky lugs, absence of sipes. Whatever--the characteristics that make the soles wear poorly are the same characteristics that make them useful after the tread is gone. If you live in an environment that has an actual winter, with ice/snow, then you'll need something else for that season. While the upper is waterproof, and these will keep your feet warm and dry, they're not much good for snow (shallow lugs if new, non-existent lugs if not). The other great thing about the outsole is its width--very stable shoe. Its really important that folks that can't feel their feet have a stable, supportive step, and this shoe provides that in spades.Workmanship and QC has been outstanding on the pairs I've bought. Never had a stripped or dissecting seam, broken eyelet (those are metal), or the dreaded "total glue failure," where the outsole starts to curl out a little bit, then starts coming apart from the upper, ultimately resulting in most of the upper becoming unattached to sole. You know, floppy shoe. Never happened with these guys, and its not like its a close call.Perhaps best overall is the ability to put these guys on in the morning, regardless of my workday (office, traveling, jobsite, or just hiking around farmground) and know I'll be comfortable and stable, even with my terrible, terrible feet. Just ask yourself, why else would someone buy three pair of shoes with a known issue of quickly-wearing outsoles? Because they're the most comfortable shoes I own, that's why.Recommended. Kinda. I'd like to keep buying these for myself as long as I can.

Very comfortable shoes. I've been buying this brand and model shoe for several decades. Good price.

My husband really likes these shoes. It is hard to get his size in the stores - 12EW, therefore we need to order them online. Several years ago I could buy these for $59, now the price is $85. That is the reason I am giving four out of five stars. That’s quite a price hike! However, because these shoes fit him so well, and it’s hard to find another shoe that does, we will continue to purchase. I just hold out and wait to see if I can get them at a lower price, which recently is $69 for the brown pair, then I sometimes buy two pair.

I've had a pair of these before and after several years they needed replacement. The shoes appear to be made as well as the others had been. The extra wide shoes fit and are comfortable to wear. Happy with the purchase.

My husband had a pair of these from many years ago. They were looking pretty worn so I ordered him a pair of these in black and brown. They fit perfectly and we are both satisfied with these shoes. I would recommend these.

I have been buying this exact shoe for years. I have very flat feet size 12 I ware out soles in about 6 months. I love this shoe It is number one for work(mechanic). I will also ware it for dress on occasion , On sale I bought 5 pairs recently. I have a hard time thrown old one out. To me this is best shoe for this price on the market.

Great shoe bought them used second used pair i would buy used any time wish they had more return items for sale

This shoe is comfortable. However, the leather and outer sole seem to be of less quality than the Skecher Tom Cats and Mariners. I would have kept these had I not found these other two shoes.
