Tough as Nails, Comfortable as Clouds
By Andrew Park on Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2025
I've been wearing these Skechers Boots for work for the past three weeks, and I'm already incredibly impressed. While three weeks might not seem like a long time, I'm on my feet all day, often in demanding conditions, and these boots have already proven their worth. Durability is clearly a strong suit. The leather is tough and resists scuffs and abrasions. I've even had a rather...unfortunate incident where I ran my foot over with a u-boat (long story!), and these boots shrugged it off like it was nothing. Seriously, not a mark. The stitching is solid, and the soles look like they'll hold up for a long time. These boots feel built to last.But what's truly amazing is the comfort. You wouldn't expect a boot this tough to be so comfortable, but these Skechers deliver. The insole provides excellent cushioning, and the fit was perfect right out of the box. There was no break-in period required; they felt great from day one. Even after long, grueling shifts, my feet don't ache. It's like walking on clouds, even on concrete. As someone with a metal plate in my ankle, finding supportive and comfortable footwear can be a challenge, but these boots have been fantastic. They provide great ankle support without any discomfort.These boots also offer great support. My ankles feel stable, and I haven't experienced any foot fatigue, even when carrying heavy loads. The slip-resistant soles provide excellent traction, which is crucial in my line of work.Overall, these Skechers Boots are an outstanding work boot. They're incredibly durable (I can personally attest to that!), surprisingly comfortable, and provide excellent support. If you're looking for a boot that can handle tough conditions – and even the occasional u-boat encounter – and keep your feet happy all day long, I highly recommend these. They're worth every penny, even based on my initial experience.

Thrown Away After 2 Months - Worst Boots EVER!!
By ReemusX on Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2022
UPDATE to my original review: Ended up tossing these boots in the trash. As mentioned before, my feet have never smelled until I wore these boots for work. These boots somehow brought out the worst foot odor and you could never get it out of them. Of the 10+ pairs of boots and shoes I own (some 10yrs old), my feet have never smelled and they never smelled. Secondly, 2 months of trying to wear these and they have been the worst and most uncomfortable shoes/boots I have ever owned. Blisters and sore feet since day 1. They are so bad that I wouldn't give them to a homeless person.Their name was good when they first came out....but now, I am not sure. Here is why...1: Inside of the boot is cheap and you can feel the steel toe edge inside the boot on top of your foot. Very thin material and even had a crease in foot from this edge when laying on ground working for a while.2: Odor-accelerating insoles. I have NEVER...and I mean, NEVER had stinky feet problems until I got these boots. Within 2 times of wearing them they smelled awful of foot odor... Yet, all my other work boots and shoes have no odor at all. When I wear these for a few hours just walking around, you can start to smell foot odor from them. I don't know what or how this is possible, but when I change into my 14yr old boots I have no issues.3: Not sure what they tested anti-slip on...but these boots are the worst boots on wet surfaces or around oil or grease I have ever owned. They seem to absorb oils and grease and track it worse than anything I have owned. Getting on a ladder with them a little wet is almost asking to slip off a rung.4: Take a long time to break in. After blisters on heels and feet, they took nearly a month to break enough to not be so stiff... I work 12-14hr days on my feet and these boots broken in have to be taken off after about 8hrs or so and switched. They are so stiff and you feel every little edge and bump in these boots. I have a set of walmarboots for a 1/4 of the price that were some of the most comfortable and durable boots I have had aside from my expensive ones.Cheaply made, not tested properly, uncomfortable, has serious odor control problems, insoles flatten out within a week, and overpriced.
