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.

My husband works in the food industry and buys these on repeat. Most comfortable work shoes he’s tried.

It's definitely a comfortable and lightweight shoe. They are a tad bit noisy, almost as if they were lined with tissue paper, but the noise is faint. Great traction on wet, slippery surfaces. I work in an automotive shop with epoxy floors that occasionally has engine oil, transmission fluid, water and everything else slippery spilled on them. I can confidently walk through and feel that I have firm footing as these don't slip. Very happy with that. Time will tell of their longevity. I think one of the reasons why people are saying to order a half to one full size smaller is because these shoes are specifically designed and made to fit loose. The box they come in has "Relaxed Fit" and "Roomier Fit" emblazoned all over it, but the product description doesn't mention that. So to achieve about the same secure feel of a tennis or cross-training shoe, you do have to order smaller than what you would normally wear. Unless you're working/walking vigorously, I think the looser fit combined with the memory foam really make for a all-day comfortable shoe. If these last a couple of summers, then these will be well worth the asking price.

Pretty comfortable I can get through a day's work without too much discomfort!

Solid shoes! Fits as all Skechers do, easy to put on, lace up and the soles really do have a good grip. Material cleans up quickly with a damp cloth.

The size fits well, and the anti-slip effect is good.

I bought my husband these for work because he is a chef and works in the kitchen all day and is on his feet. So he needs some good shoes that don’t slip also in the kitchen. When they arrived they are lightweight fitting. Size is true to size. So far he’s been wearing them for two months, he says they are pretty comfortable but some days his feet still hurt after work. I haven’t seen any holes or rips on them yet and he goes through shoes so fast he has to keep buying some usually every other month. The only thing he notices is that it doesn’t hold odor to good! If you work all day your feet will get sweaty and he notices they will smell up easy and the odor doesn’t go away! So they don’t work well if your working long hours on your feet because they don’t hold odor at all. Don’t get them wet or wear them to long. However I don’t think they are worth the price they are asking for them. I think work shoes are work shoes, if your one to go through work shoes fast, your better off just buying a cheap brand for cheaper price and not put a hole in your wallet!!!

This is a great shoe, I work in the Restaurant business and I’m on my feet anywhere from 10 to 13 hours a day. They’re very comfortable and non-slip, also very Lightweight, and flexible which makes walking more pleasant. I have bought other cheaper brands before, but the soles on the shoe wear out fast and they’re not comfortable. I’ve had another pair of this and they lasted a year and the soles were perfect shape. I also own Dr. Martens, they look great, but it is extremely heavy shoe, and they hurt your feet because the inner soles are not soft, and the shoe does not bend easily. So, in comparison I would say, buy the sketchers! they’re soft , comfortable, lightweight, flexible and non-slip and durable! Your feet will thank you!

very support to my clinic work daily... I will buy it again... down 1 size:)

Good for walking very comfortable
