I bought these in Jan of 2017 and still wear the same pair (replaced the insole) two years later. add some lacelock's and these are the perfect shoe for EMS. The no slip soles are one if their best features. as a 300lbs gorilla-esque mass of humanity even i can be surefooted standing on the roof of a car or an oil slick road in the pouring rain. seriously, these things take everything except ice. it also has a steel toe which comes in handy. my only problem was that the plastic insert in the heel disintegrated about 1.5 years into owning them, which is a good run considering these were worn 80+ hours a week on a truck that averaged 7 calls in a 12 hour shift, but then i had to cut the fabric in the heel and manually extract the millions of tiny pieces.

Too narrow in the toe box area and I don't have wide feet

Not a bad shoe. Fit well & true to my size. They were a bit slippery when I first wore them, but after a few errands they were good. This company goes above & beyond to ensure your satisfaction—thanks guys

This is the first pair of Saucony shoes I've ever owned and I'm very pleased. I've typically worn the heavy, suede, New Balance 564 fora retro running shoe, but wanted something lighter. The low profile sole is more reminiscent of Onitsuka Tiger shoes, which are also a favorite of mine.
Unlike the Asics shoes, these have a more traditional running shoe style. As vegan shoes, I don't expect them to last long and I'm not expecting a great athletic shoe, because vegan shoes never are, imo. They're very comfortable shoes, although I'd still give the edge to Onitsuka Tigers in that regard. I am slightly worried that they don't breathe well, due to an inner sock lining that covers the entire inside, but that's not a huge factor for me.
The fit is just great for me, but I have somewhat narrow feet. These do run narrow, especially in comparison to the 564, which is wide even in standard widths. My most common athletic shoe sizes are 10.5-11 and I purchased these in a perfect 10.5. For the sake of comparison, I typically wear an 11 in Nike, 10.5 in Onitsuka Tiger and have recently had to size up to an 11.5 in New Balance.
In closing, I'll note that they come with 2 sets of laces in different colors, even though I saw no mention of this anywhere. I ordered them in Navy, and in addition to the Navy laces shown, they also included some in cream that match the stripe. I was actually hoping they would do that and will probably use the cream colored laces.

The sizes seem to run 1/2 a size small. Very nice sneakers.

Nothing sketcy about Sketcher. A few years ago I had some major foot trouble so since then I have been careful to protect my hoofies with ankle support and molded foot inserts. None of that matters if you have lousy shoes. I first bought a pair of Skechers Men's Afterburn Memory-Foam Lace-up Sneakers at a small box store after seeing them advertised. Best cheap shoe I ever wore. Liked them so much that I just bought a backup pair here...but I didn't have to. My older pair is still going strong. Lastability. So, if you're not some kind of shoe diva and are looking for a good ride...get yours. I like 'em!

Bought for my daughter for school who wears a 9 1/2 in women shoes, and purchased the 8 in these. The color is perfect and will order another for her.

Reviewer Wilson Daniel Pace
Had an older gen of this shoe, it was amazing. This pair is wearing out a little faster than the last gen. The old pair also fit AMAZINGLY, and this one was a bit tight. I changed the lacing style (to horizontal) and it solved the narrow feeling of this pair. Only reason this got 4 starts is because the last pair blew... my... mind! so I might be comparing too much.

they look good, but are super narrow. the bottoms are also foam, like the nike free. they are not made to last, they will wear out quickly
