Skechers Men'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 .

Very comfortable soft and ture to fit love it

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.

Bought these for my husband. They fit well and were very comfortable. They look great as well. The only problem he has with them is that they make a crinkly, plasticky sound while walking. It might not be bothering or noticeable if you're in a louder/crowded area, but if you are walking somewhere even remotely quiet, (dr's office, classroom, business) people are going to hear you coming before they see you.

I love these shoes, I work on my feet all day and the width is perfect. I buy men's shoes because they seem to fit my feet better.
