Skechers for Work Men's Cottonwood Elks Slip Resistant Shoe

I have trouble finding shoes that fit, I usually get blisters on the tops of my hammer toes and on my pinky toe from wide feet. I am 6'3" 240 pounds, have hammer toes, high arches, wide feet (so I ordered size 12EEE). I just started a new job as a Waiter/Server at a new restaurant and Manager, so I put a lot of miles on my shoes, on wet greasy floors, and if my feet hurt, I get grumpy, which means I lose tips or don't want to work as much or as hard. It is very important to me that my shoes are good, to keep me in a happy mood and make me want to work more hours. And I have owned some very expensive shoes from handmade Danner boots, Cole Haan, Rockport, Salomon and Dansko to name a few, so I have no problem buying very expensive shoes. These Skechers Cottonwood Elks are very comfortable right out of the box! They are very roomy all over and have a large toe-box for my hammer toes. I got no blisters even on day one. (I did try a trick I learned from hiking: I wore thin nylon socks against my skin,or women's' nylons can work, and a thick sock outside.....this prevent blisters even in new shoes or long hikes). I like how stable these shoes are and how well they grip! They are very comfortable but also give me confidence with the large sole and good slip-resistant tread. I was extremely impressed with these shoes on day one. I also bought some Dansko Walkers which cost $140, and there is no doubt the Dansko are a more quality shoe and worth the money (more stable, form-fitted, less squishy and appear they will last much longer), these Skecher Cottonwood Elks are an extremely good shoe and I would highly recommend them!!!

Comfortable work shoe. Great for this transit operator and nice looking leather uppers. I added sole cushions to make them extra comfy and they wear quite well. Though oil resistant soles tend to wear quickly due to their soft nature I've milked a couple of years out of mine. The soles are thinning, but with an occasional polishing they look sharp and professional, and repel water still.

I always stray from these shoes to find something dressier for work, and end up wasting money. I do customer service and have a uniform policy. I need black shoes and these have always offered the most support, comfort, and durability. I have also never slipped in these.

After the "breaking in" period, the shoes works as expected. These were probably overkill for me in that I have a desk job in a professional environment. Still, I needed shoes that weren't too fancy but was budget friendly and would look good in an office setting, yet also be practical. The practical part, the slip-resistant design, works wonderfully as the lobby of my building, as well as the area I work on has tile floors that can get quite slippery when wet, particularly when people are trotting in from the rain. I haven't had any issue with skidding or sliding with these shoes at my office building compared to other shoes I've worn. Also, as pointed out, you may want to consider getting a half-size or one size up from what you normally wear. The shoes do have that extra tightness of boots and dress shoes. I did that; I usually wear size 10.5, but went for a 11, and it turned out great. Nice and snug, not too tight or loose.

Comfortable and didn't have to go out to get them.

Good quality

I bought these to replace an old pair of Sketchers that had worn down after many years and just like those shoes, these are wonderful! Very comfortable to wear all day with good support. The fit was as expected for me. If you're looking for non-slip shoes that lean towards being more stylish than typical non-slip shoes, these are great. They work well with a variety of outfits and won't hurt your feet in the process. I've been wearing them almost every day for a few months now and they show no signs of falling apart.

I have had these shoes for 16 months i wear them 2 or 3 times per month the left shoe the bottom is coming apart and the right is like new I will add photos.

Yo como conductor de vehículos pesados en este caso categoría D,son excelentes tanto en confor como en resistencia..los recomiendo la verdad por lo menos a mi me hacen el "apaño"

These are very good shoes - instantly comfortable. I've previously bought trainers to accommodate my misshapen feet, and I'm not a big fan of trainers. Not in my 60's. So to put these on and not feel the pinches and rubbing I would normally find with leather shoes is very very good news. I can wear them to walk in, they look presentable enough to wear for smart casual, and they are good enough to work in too. It's always been the case that if I find comfortable shoes, when I go back to replace them the model has changed and I can't get the same thing. So I've bought two pairs of these - you can take that as a recommendation.

Fast delivery and good communication

They are comfortable, easy to wear and clean.
