I have been a sketcher fan for quite some time.  You really can't go wrong with them.  Every pair of shoes I have purchased have all been extremely comfortable, and lasted quite a while.  These shoes live up to the hype.  I must say, they are extremely stylish.  I can't tell you how many compliments I get on them.  They are so versatile.  I work in an office, and have to wear business casual style clothes.  These are perfect for this.  They look like casual office shoes, but they can also be weekend casual as well.  It really depends on what you wear with them.  The shoe size is spot on.  Usually, shoes can float a 1/2 size too big or small, but these are dead on the size.  No need to worry about getting a bigger or smaller size.  I must say, they are one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I have ever owned.  They almost feel like running shoes in terms of comfort.  I have had them for over a month now, and they really seem to be holding up.  They still look brand new, even though I wear them every day.  I will say there is one little downside, but just barely.  The tread pattern on the bottom is a little like cleats.  There are these raised bumps for tread.  It's not an issue under normal circumstances, but I was eating at a restaurant that had a slick floor, and they can get a little slick on these types of surfaces.  It wasn't like I was ice skating, but I did notice a little slide when turning a corner.  It's by no means a deal breaker, just something to be aware of.  Sketchers didn't disappoint on these shoes.  Trust me, pick yourself up a pair.  They go great with just about any outfit.  They look great during the week at the office in khaki's, and even better with jeans on the weekend.  Great job sketchers!
