I wear a wide shoe and Skechers always seems to have shoes that fit well. Even though I have not had the best of luck with Skechers' quality, I thought I would give these a try. Unfortunately, the threads have been coming out since a few months after I got them. I am including a photo to show what I mean. I can probably trim the strings, but they have been getting worse over time.These shoes fit great and look good. I don't do much hiking, but they are great for all day wear at amusement parks or a day of shopping with the wife.Even with the strings coming out, they are still holding together and look decent. I have had them over a year now. The original laces finally gave out about a month ago. I am actually considering buying a new pair of these.
