SkechersMen's Flex Advantage Bendon Work Shoe

I run a busy Deli/Restaurant, mostly from the kitchen, working 5-6 days a week and not looking to make a fashion statement with my shoes. These have been my go to shoes for several years now. Yes, they have good slip resistance, are comfortable (wide fit is the best for me), and have a reasonable life. I get a good 12-13 months of use, better than cheaper and more expensive shoes I've tried (I'm not paying $100+ for a kitchen work shoe, so god bless if you do). This shoe also addresses my BIG PET PEEVE of other slip resistant kitchen shoes, the soles don't get easily clogged up with chunks and globs of food bits that inevitably hit the floor in a busy lunch rush kitchen (yes, we keep all work surfaces etc. sanitary as required, but lots of stuff makes it to the floor to be swept up later). A layer of debris stuck to the bottom of your shoes is neither comfortable or slip resistant, and you end up tracking that crap wherever you go (a quick run to the dinning area to greet a customer you actually like?). Anyway, the pattern of the sole works great in a kitchen. In conclusion, I really like this Skechers shoe. They don't fall apart after a few months, and they work for me in the kitchen. They have other similar types, slip on, flex, etc., but check the pattern on the sole. If not the same, skip it as a kitchen work shoe. Oh yeah, they can be thrown in the washing machine (remove the inner sole and air dry) if you accidentally pour a bunch of bacon grease on them.

This shoe is very comfortable and easy to wear.I very like this shoe.

The media could not be loaded. Quick Review List:•Recommend different soles•7/10 for slip resistance•Highly durable outside (snag wise, not impact wise)•Machine Washable? But doesn’t clean the bottom.•Overall 8/10 Rating• Great during rainy days, normally don’t have wet socks after walkingFull Review:These shoes are great as slip resistant shoes, but the comfort is not there. I highly recommend getting new insoles, soles, whichever you prefer to call them as these do not last that long and the memory foam is not too thick. It is not like you would expect, but I have a very high arch on my foot and weight stagnates around 170 LBS @6’ 1” if that gives any insight and my feet normally ache after a 7-8 hour shift. They are sketchers though.

Love these shoes . Been purchasing them since 2019 for work . They are light weight , breathable and gives you a small height advantage comfortable , break in period is less than a shift of work . I wear them 6 days a week from 8-12 hours a day. The durability is great I abuse them going though a pair every few months , always come back to them in my opinion best slip resistant shoes out there. Never slide in the freezers , outside in down pours (I believe the design pattern for the great resistance under the shoe is key)However the only disadvantage I’ve ever have is with the mesh on top , your feet tend to get cold quickly especially when you spill a decent amount of water on them . Working around seafood happens occasionally but it’s a small issue that doesn’t outweigh the pros .

This is a great shoe, I work in the Restaurant business and I’m on my feet anywhere from 10 to 13 hours a day. They’re very comfortable and non-slip, also very Lightweight, and flexible which makes walking more pleasant.I have bought other cheaper brands before, but the soles on the shoe wear out fast and they’re not comfortable.I’ve had another pair of this and they lasted a year and the soles were perfect shape.I also own Dr. Martens, they look great, but it is extremely heavy shoe, and they hurt your feet because the inner soles are not soft, and the shoe does not bend easily.So, in comparison I would say,buy the sketchers!they’re soft , comfortable, lightweight, flexible and non-slip and durable!Your feet will thank you!

Very comfortable soft and ture to fit love it

Returned, didn't fit

These have been great for work. I work with hospitality and require to spend most of my day standing up and walking and these don’t make my feet uncomfortable at the end of the day. The wide fit make it even better.
