SKORA Women's Form-W

I love these shoes. I have picky feet that are wide in the front and narrow in the back and these are of such high quality leather that they conform to my foot's shape so easily. I do need to wear socks to avoid blisters, but these are the most comfortable running shoes and my favorite. I love that the heel is adjustable. I'm usually a 9.5 and took a 9.5 in these.I generally prefer the way that "natural" running shoes fit, but find that the lack of padding is sometimes painful. I have a pair of New Balance Minimus that I loved, but the sole was so thin that I didn't enjoy running in them because you could feel ever pebble on the ground. These shoes are Skora's cushiest and they're super comfortable (not overly padded) while retaining exactly the right kind of natural fit. You can tell they were designed by a runner. I think these are the only running shoe to offer both a curved/natural fit and padding.

I have never purchased this brand of shoe before but the goat leather upper sounded lusciously supple. I purchased a size 9 as I have a deep toe box, a very high arch plus a high instep. Although my measured shoe width is B, I normally purchase a D width to allow room for my thick feet. These shoes were ok fitting although there is a bit of leather inside the shoe on the outside of the foot that needs to have an extra stitch or some glue on it as it rolled up against the side of my foot and was irritating. This appears to be a part of a seam located at the base of the lace opening.I purchased these shoes because they are very stylish. I expect that I will use them for walking and running when the weather cooperates again.

Love these sneakers!! They are just what I've been looking for. They feel "close to barefoot," but have enough cushioning so I can walk long distances on pavement. The off center lacing is great. I recall my elderly grandmother had off center laced orthopedic shoes when I was a kid. Now I know why. It's a great lacing system that doesn't pinch or compress over the cuneiform bones at the center top of the foot. That's a spot where I often have some tendon pain and I'm guessing that's not uncommon. The lacing system almost completely misses that sensitive area. Love it!The only issue I have with these is that they get pretty beat looking quickly. The first week I had them I took two long hikes in which I was walking through some mud. I could not get them cleaned up. We all love our lived in looking sneakers, but I didn't expect them to look like I'd owned them for a year when I'd had them only one week. It's a small complaint. I think these are so comfy that I'm still giving them five stars!!

I bought these because I loved the idea of the offset laces and the reviews that were so passionate! Well, I'm a believer now. I will never buy another brand of sneakers. Genius engineering, better than my orthotics! I love the offset laces, I usually have quite a bit of pain from the pressure points of regular lace ups. They are light but like another reviewer said, you don't feel every rock in the street. My favorite aspect is your foot never runs into the front of the shoe, I have messed up toenails from the usual concussion of running. The shoe seems to move forward when you land, away from your toes. In fact, whenever your feet hit ground it feels supported and good. I can truly say these shoes are feel good all the time, no pressure points at all. I also live in the Northwest and I appreciate the waterproof leather, I'm so over ventilated netting as I run into puddles. Best purchase I could make!

I have 4 pairs of Skora (Fit, Form, Core, Base) and I LOVE them all! But the Forms are my go to shoe. Far and away the best shoe I've ever owned! I have run 4 half marathons and trail races in them with no problem. I wear them with and without socks, doesn't matter! They fit like a glove, provide just enough cushion on rocks and feel like they are barely there! I will never buy another brand.

I usually wear a size 10 shoe, but my left foot is larger than my right. My first purchase was a size 10, but the left was too narrow and rubbed. The right shoe fit great. So I purchased 10 1/2 and they are perfect. I suffer from heel spurs, fallen arches and plantar fascitis and these are the most comfortable shoes that I've found. I'm not a runner, so can't speak to that, but for everyday walking and wear, these are my go-to shoe. I wish they made something a bit more dressy, but I will purchase more like these. My experience would be to buy a half size up.

I have these in a different color and ordered the blue camo. They are SIGNIFICANTLY bigger than my old white ones--so much so, that I suspect if the camo ones should be labeled as men's instead of women's (the box and shoe both say women's). From my experience Skora is very inconsistent with sizing from one model to the next (a 10 in one model, a 9 in another, for example)...but this is extreme variance within the model.

I've been wearing Brooks purecadence1 and vibrams. I needed a new pair of shoes and tried the Brooks purecadence2 and 3 but they just don't fit the same. I started running the in vibrams, and while they are OK, I simply like having just enough padding to not feel rocks under my feet. These fit the bill, low profile, enough padding to not feel rocks and comfy right out of the box. And they're actually kinda cute!
