I've always had good luck with Skecher shoes, and these are just what I expected.  Great value for the dollar.  The only downside are the laces.  I really don't like the cloth laces.  I don't' think they tighten up very nicely, and being white, they show any dirt right away.  I bought some replacements on Amazon and now the shoes are perfect.  I bought the Miscly laces and I really like them.  Also, I might suggest that you monitor the prices.  Right after I bought mine, the price jumped up; but perhaps it will go down. The price also varies depending on color.
