SkechersMen Equalizer 5.0 Trail-Solix Sneaker

I purchased these trainers in preparation for various trips taken back in March 2023. Now that I have fully worn them for a month, I can now provide my feedback.Firstly it is important to point out that I have extremely wide (EE/EEE) flat feet, with no pronounced arch and a size 9 (female). I do have bunions and can find walking long distances a challenge. Due to the amount of walking I would endure, it was important to purchase supportive, gripped, weather resistant trainers.As I was travelling to Scotland, it would provide the ideal environment for weather and terrain to fully test it's function and durability.There is a wide fit version which I found elsewhere (shop), although very limited availability across the web. However I was reluctant to purchase due to the price difference.So I purchased the relaxed fit (commonly available) and it's very roomy and accommodates my feet with ease. Looking at the bottom of the shoe, it is quite evident it has a wider design than most. There is noticeable cushioning under the foot, aided by the memory foam and the tread has a deep multi-directional chevron grip to tackle different surfaces. The shoes feels light and breathable (with no sweaty/smelly feet).I did wonder if could uphold rain/puddles etc. So being in Scotland and experiencing at least 5 weather conditions in an hour, including snow, I can confidently say it has risen to the challenge. I would purposely walk in puddles to test its repellency and my feet remained dry which was down to various features, including the coated scotchgard and by the fact the tongue is attached to the main body of the shoe.It was alway my intention to revisit Arthur's seat (volcano) in Edinburgh but this time with proper footwear. This was absolutely the best test for these trainers, challenging slippery mud, rock, grass and uneven elevated terrain. I felt very confident traversing for 5 hours with no blisters or ailments.When I wasn't climbing mid level mountains(!) I could be found happily walking approx 9 miles a day exploring cobbled streets, normal paved areas and places of interest with no issues.Overall I am very happy with the style, comfort and support it provides, and I am looking forward to many more travels. Glad I purchased another pair in blue.

If you have feet like mine, short but wide. Then these might be good for you. Very comfy out the box (skechers seem to be very good at that) with excellent support. My only criticism is the styling. I feel like I should be in a skate park and not a 60yr old. Otherwise excellent... BTW... As other reviewers have noted, the laces are way too short.

These are the second pair of Sketchers I have purchased. Though the first pair have not done serious mileage (used for occasional purposes).This pair I have been wearing every day from day one and have been covering approximately 6 km per day. Most of my walks are on tarmac and little rougher terrain. The shoes are so far showing hardly any signs of wear, but early days . They are well made sturdy shoes with memory foam insoles . I’m 230 lbs so if I get more than 6 months comfortably I’m happy.

I couldn't believe it when they arrived. I put my foot in the shoe, and just like that it was on my foot

Couldn't believe how comfortable these are. I have flat feet so didn't buy the Arch fit model but got the memory soles, instant comfort the second I put them on. Very well made and robust, will definitely be buying more - more than worth the cost compared to my usual adidas/nike buys.

All good. Comfy, sturdy and look great.

Fits me perfectly. It has pretty tough soles which I like. The shoestring could be a little longer though. Changed it and much better now. Having the relaxed fit really helps with wide feet.

perfect for daily use
