Skechers Women's Go Walk Original Slip-On Walking Shoes

Wow! Great fit, right price and not frumpy looking.

I was looking for a slipper to wear post bilateral knee replacement surgery and not having any success in finding a slipper with good support, a non-slip sole and an enclosed heel. I had seen an ad for a Sketcher's espadrille-like shoe and was checking those out on the Sketcher's website when I saw the Go Walk shoe. Shopping options in Grand Junction, CO are not so great, Penney's had the shoe if you like grey and wear a size 10 or a size 5; but at least I was able to get a look at it, I could not believe how light weight it was and also good looking. Of course I knew just where I could find a pair and have them delivered before my surgery date, only 5 days away. Amazon had the shoe in a multitude of colors, all available to fit my size 8 foot! Conservative and practice gal that I am, I ordered a pair in Navy Blue. I am beyond pleased with the Go Walk shoe, it fits perfectly and has just enough give to fit over my support hose and a thick sock. I am 11 days post bilateral knee replacement surgery, walking around the house with my walker or cane, working out with my physical therapist and riding my recumbent bicycle. The non slip cushy sole is a perfect for all my activities and the shoe is light and comfortable enough to wear while I sit up in my recliner, they are so comfy that I almost forget I have them on. With the help of my long handled telescoping shoe horn I am easily able to put them on by myself (another Amazon purchase). Nurses and therapists have all admired the shoe. I will definitely be ordering more Go Walks in other colors, they will be the perfect alternative to sandals this summer! (P.S. - they are washable!)

Okay, so I rarely do these review thingys unless I TRULY love a specific product and what it has to offer. I first bought the grey colored Go walks at my local DSW when this style had just come out. It cost me a whopping $60 after taxes! But it was sooooo worth every penny!!! I was afraid that since I was a woman more on the bigger side that the bottom of the shoes would start to flatten out over time. I've worn my grey Go Walks nearly everyday for the past 4 months, and they are holding up better than I thought! The sole never flattened, thus allowing amazing never ending comfort! After months of great wear, I decided to purchase yet another pair of Go Walk, I decided on the Navy ones. I even brought them on vacation with me and my friends to Taiwan, and boy were they helpful! Everywhere you went you had to walk miles and miles. We walked the equivalent of at least SEVEN miles a day (no kidding!). Every one of friends complained of foot pain except for me, thanks to my awesome Go Walks! My foot was seriously getting a massage every time I took a step lol! These shoes are definitely one of a kind, you can dress them up or dress them down. While in Taipei my friends and I decided to splurge a bit and went to a VERY expensive restaurant (each person spent at least $70 on ONE entree). I was able to wear a nice dress with my Go Walks and it was still very cute! These shoes are cute and most importantly, comfy! You won't be disappointed!*I only have one advice when wearing these shoes! Wear a COTTON foot liner when wearing your Go Walk, especially if you're gonna walk long distances or work out in them. Sweaty feet = stinky feet! But no worries, these shoes are machine washable!*I have two pairs of Go Walks and they BARELY stretched out after numerous wears. You'll hardly notice any stretching. Even if your shoes does stretch out, it'll still be cute and comfy :)

I have multiple foot issues that cause me various levels of pain. Suffice it to say that I need a minimum amount of a) arch support b) ball of the foot cushioning in a non-constricting, bunion-friendly shoe. Plain old flats don't cut it for me at all because they lack those 2 components.I'm been curious about the Skechers line, but the price has held me back, along with reviews that say the shoes don't last that long.I recently purchased a Skechers-LIKE shoe at Kohls (Croft & Barrow brand), and liked it. Plus the price was very user-friendly. I was only able to find ONE COLOR in my size, so I started searching online.I found this model on Amazon - for less than the $60 dollars that's usually listed for a Skechers shoe, so I decided to give it a shot!I find them comfortable and see no flaws in the quality of the shoe. As for the durability, time will tell. I'll report back is that ends up being an issue. I'm pretty picky about style, and for a casual shoe, these pass the test ... they're actually kind of cute! I love the fact that they have adequate cushioning BUT are still lightweight. I find the typical athletic shoe simply too bulky/clumsy/heavy for me. These fit more like a slipper BUT with some support, so as far as I'm concerned, better than a slipper.SIZING:I normally wear a 9 1/2 wide or a 10, depending on the shoe. My foot's just kind of wide, but I usually need the extra width to accommodate the bunion. Based on other reviews & comments (that the shoes are naturally kind of wide and tend to run big), I ordered a 9 B(M) ... which in my vast shoe-buying experience indicates a REGULAR width.What I received feels plenty comfortable; perhaps just a teensy, tiny bit too wide, but not enough that the shoes flop around on my feet, so that's fine. But here's the thing:The BOX says: size 9 (Eur 39, UK 6, etc).INSIDE the shoe, near the heel, is says "W9" (which I would interpret as 9 WIDE)INSIDE the shoe, in another spot, it says size 9 (Eur 39, UK 6, etc.)So, I'm not sure what I got ... but I decided it's not worth the effort & time to return/exchange. They fit ok, so I'm keeping them. But I couldn't tell you for sure whether the shoe is mislabelled (or the box) or which size I really got. It works out well for someone like me who's borderline regular-wide width. If you're a narrow - you might want to look for another shoe ...

Very comfortable and fits well!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Good shoe but the delivery time is ridiculous.
