But once you get em broken in, they wear to exactly your feet, and there is nothing more comfortable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep. And any occasion that requires me to wear dress shoes can kiss my ass. I'll do it, but I don't like it. I actually need to find a more comfortable pair of dress shoe. Some kind of a moccasin perhaps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are two things I don't like about sketches though... 1. The tread is crap. Every pair I have is very smooth on the bottom. The campus I live and work at is mostly slippery tile, and I have busted my ass more than once. 2. The most comfortable pair I have has a round pit on the heel. When I walk on wet tile (which the campus I work at is covered with) it creates a suction cup effect. I have had them sucked off my foot a couple of times.

I put them on when I get home from work and on weekends. I got 3 years on mine before I bought a new pair. Arch is way bigger on the sandal compared the flip flop. Skip the crock looking one, feet sweat like a pig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have had them sucked off my foot a couple of times. They make lightweight boots with great threads. I have a pair. They have a lot more product than before. Even dress shoes.

MTSkiBum 1,596 Posted February 27, 2021 My previous sandals were dockers but they are shot. I wear sandals 8 months out of the year down here. Comfort is all I care about. The problem with the dockers sandals is they fall apart quickly. They are comfortable though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To reiterate, I utilize Amazon, its easy and two day shipping. With that said I try my best to shop local even if its a tad more expensive.

Even dress shoes. Yeah, see I walk into the sketches store and tell them my size, and hope they have anything at all that big. Usually there is one pair in the whole store, so I just buy what I can get. Next time I'm in the states I'll check that out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustinCharge 2,397 Posted March 1, 2021 I'm not a fan of sandals in Los Angeles. Feet dry out in the desert. I try to wear socks to keep in moisture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ones with "googa mat technology" or whatever are like walking on marshmallows. They are my teacher shoes. Being married and past 40, comfort is all I give a crap about in shoes. Looks are irrelevant. I'll wear giant d!cks on my feet as long as my feet don't hurt at the end of a day. My Red Wing work boots are my most comfortable shoes. Mainly because I wear orthotics and I can't find athletic shoes where the orthotic sits completely flat. Comfort illudes me most of the day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
