A boot for any occasion
I really like these boots. I can wear them with jeans or chinos and they look great, even with a belt and button down shirt. They are light enough for spring and fall, and durable and warm enough for winter. I wear a size 9 mens sneaker (Vans and Adidas), and a size 8 fit me perfectly in these boots. I have a slightly wide toe box and I don't like it when my big toe bumps against the inside of the shoe. These boots give me enough room without feeling loose when I walk. They are quite soft and comfortable and I could walk as long as I wanted. I can put the boots on without sitting down, I just reach back with one hand and grab the strap and they slide right on, yet they are not too roomy when walking for miles. I can wear thick socks and they are not too tight. There is definitely a break-in period. I noticed a little bit of a rub against my right shin the first time I wore them. The black boots are a rigid faux-leather material, and I also bought the brown color and I noticed that they are a little softer, and broke in faster. I live in Portland, OR and we recently got a variety of weather conditions and I put these boots to the test and I was happy with the results. It rained a lot and then we got 2-3 inches of snow with very cold temperatures. THESE ARE NOT INSULATED BOOTS AND YOUR TOES MIGHT GET COLD. However, I did not feel any pain or discomfort. I walked for 30-60 minutes (2-3 miles) on hard packed snow and slush in the city, in 20-25 F temperatures on two separate occasions, and the boots held up to the salt, snow, and cold in the city. I wore two pairs of socks, one thin poly and one thick wool, and my feet stayed warm and dry. I didn't have to step in deep snow, my jean cuffs never got wet. I felt my big toes start to get a little numb after walking on snow for 15 minutes straight, but it went away after I got back on the sidewalk. I also noticed that the boots have good traction in icy slush and frozen hard pack, and although I slipped slightly a couple of times, I felt stable and I confidently walked through all of the conditions without falling down. I also wore these boots in steady rain while walking for 20-30 minutes, and my feet and ankles stayed completely dry. Overall this is a great, comfortable, everyday boot that you can wear to the office, or on the weekends for city hikes in all conditions.UPDATE: these boots are pretty useless on ice. Then again, most footwear is useless on ice. These boots will cause you to slip right away, but I’ve actually had worse. If the ground isn’t crunchy, don’t step on it.

Hard to get on.
Ordered the same size as two pair of Sketcher shoes I have. Had a terrible time getting them on the first time. Almost gave up to send back. I finally got them on and they were fairly comfortable. Wore them the rest of the day. Next time I put them on they were still hard to pull on but not as bad. Third time this morning and it's getting easier. The insoles aren't as comfortable as the Sketcher shoes I have. Not bad but I was expecting the same level of comfort. I have neuropathy in my feet and I really need good quality insole support, which the shoes have. Not sure why that didn't carry over to the boots. We'll see as time goes on but I'm hoping they'll break in more and get easier to put on. Might try a pair of insoles when that happens.Just realized, there is no arch support in these boots. Going to have to try a slip in insert I guess. If you need firm arch support I'd give these boots a pass.The boots got increasingly easier to pull on as time went by but it was still a struggle. This morning the loop you use to pull them on broke on one boot so that's going to make it even more difficult. Given how much I like the two pair of Sketcher shoes I have I'm very disappointed in these boots. Won't buy again.

New pair and originally purchased these in 2017
I got a pair of these in 2017 and it’s time for a new pair. Getting a new pair because I have liked wearing them for doing stuff around the house. They have held up well and are really comfortable. I am happy to see Sketchers still makes these. Just a good pair of durable work shoes.

Great shoes!
Bought these for my hubby. He absolutely loves them. They’re easy to slide on and comfortable. The quality is great, they’re lightweight and such a great price!

Requires a break-in period.
Good looking boot and suitable for traction and water resistance in snow. Good fit. However, it's advertised as easy on and off but I find this to be inaccurate. Had to purchase a shoehorn to put them on as the opening is narrow and the leather is stiff. Perhaps it will improve after a break-in time.

hard to slip on and off when new, comfortable
So far so good, been wearing them for 2 days.Pretty tight getting them off and on though, seems to be getting better. Overall very comfortable and as the other reviews said I ordered a 1/2 size smaller. They dont feel loose or sloppy on my feet which I was worried about with a slip on boot. Traction is good on snow and ice, wet concrete also good.Hopefully they hold up.
