I have been very happy with Skechers shoes. I have several pairs of Shape Ups but I love my Skechers work shoes. I have been using the "Galley" for a few years now and am happy with the amount of wear they go through as well as the fit and comfort. When I saw these on Amazon for less than my Galley's I figured I'd tried them. Not on par with my other Skechers. These are not cushioned as well (sole is very hard) and the flap behind the heel is attached about a third of the way down the heel and folds down when putting my foot into the shoe unless I hold on to it. The styling is okay and I guess I got what I paid for. Next pair will be the Galley.
