Men's Flex Advantage SR Black/Black Work Shoe 8 W US

Good shoes for working in places that would slip. Also very comfortable. Like that they have wide option for wider feet.

Don't give reviews often, but here goes. I started having a very painful right hip problem 3years ago. In my work I do a lot of walking. My right hip started to give me a lot of problems. So I went and bought the best work boot you can buy, using technology and the whole world, thinking this will take care of my problem. Took care of it all right, it got a lot worse. Started to think I was gonna need a hip replacement. Out of desperation, and my woman telling me to try Skechers, and ordered a pair of these and another style of Skechers. As sure as the sky is blue, my right hip pain went away in 2days, and felt relief after one day. Convinced me so much, I bought 2more pairs of these just in case they stop making them.. Believe me I suffered many days with this hip problem, it's like a miracle, feel so much better it's awesome. So I highly recommend trying them, what do you have to lose, it's a quarter of the price I use to pay for the so called best work shoe.

I work in Loss Prevention for a retailer and my uniform requires an "all black" work shoe. Since my retailer rarely gets shoes of this type in stock I had to sniff around elsewhere. An added difficulty is that I have plantar fasciitis so I needed my Powerstep Pinnacle orthotic to fit inside the shoe which requires that I buy a WIDE shoe.Initially I tried various shoe retailers before giving up because many don't carry WIDE sizes. In the same outlet mall I found a Skecher's where I found this shoe for the very first time. it was available in WIDE, was comfortable and had the all black look I needed. The only con was that in a WIDE style, it does have a bit of a "grandpa" orthotic shoe look to it IMHO. The memory foam surely helps but I can't feel that impact since I use an inserted orthotic in my shoes.I bought two pairs of these and used them on my Loss Prevention job 5 days a week for 7-8 hours per day alternating the two pair to give each a chance to air out. They lasted about 8 months to 8.5 months and then I could tell the cushioning was gonzo. You could even see the sole was deteriorating but the rest of the shoe looked perfectly fine. To clarify, the cushioning was seriously gonzo to the point where my feet hurt from standing on concrete floors with thin carpet covering them.As a result, I found these for sale on Amazon and ordered them immediately to replace my worn out ones. I also bought a pair of Skechers "Men's Work Relaxed Fit: Telfin - Sanphet SR" shoes which I will also review here on Amazon where I bought them.For the record, my job involves standing in one place for long periods of time or walking the floor seeking out shoplifters. On occasion these shoes hit the pavement outside but that is less common in the current era of retail. I have run in them and they aren't great for that unless you're 18 years old. They feel a bit stiff and are not cushioned enough to do any running for anything more than quick and short runs. But then they aren't running shoes so what do we expect?All in all, they're a pretty good work shoe and go well with a security type uniform. If you pay well below the list price by the Skecher's manufacturer I think you're getting good value.

Son muy durables, lastima que descontinuaron el modelo y ya no existen modelos con la calidad de este resisten liquidos y ácidos, trabajo en una carnicería y ocupamos mucho vinagre y sazonadores liquidos y no han maltratado la piel que es genuina, solo han sufrido una rotura de la malla en el pliegue de los dedos, parece ser frecuente en este modelo, un pequeñito inconveniente a cambio de su durabilidad y resistencia, son muy cómodos y fácilmente puedes usarlos con plantillas ortopedicas

These are comfortable, fit well and are true to size. I’m going to buy another pair. I wear them for work- they have good grip. I have been buying this for 6 years.

Husband works at a mechanic shop and needs to wear a black shoe that won't slip on oil or any other fluid that may end up on the floor. He says these are the most comfortable work shoe he has tried and works great with his wide foot and gives him the support he needs so his heels don't hurt at the end of the day. Says they were a little slick the first days he wore them but that it got better as the week went on. we are a few months in and he says they are still comfortable and look good which is something because we have bought $120+ work shoes and they don't last long or feel as comfortable. Will buy again.

I have waited tables for the last 6 years and have used a good number of slip resistant shoes. This is for sure one of my favorite ones I have used. Enough so that after my first pair were falling apart I went and ordered the same ones again.I have a hard time finding work shoes I find comfortable. I prefer something with mesh that breathes and is lite. Many of the shoes on the market are bulky, have no ventilation, and look "goofy" for lack of a better term. That makes these shoes a winner for me.My last pair went for about 13 months before in really bad shape. Which is better than allot of other cheaper shoes i have used. My failure points are similar to allot of those posted here but didn't happen in a short period of time like some others.My biggest gripe with the shoes are the memory foam bottom. They are not removable so if you want to run an insole this will complicate that. The pad is also very thin and gets smushed down after a few days. To where you don't really even feel like it's there anymore. Last pair i just waited till it really flattened out and threw in a thin gel insole. Would be nice if they just made them removable though.
