I first bought a pair of these almost 3 years ago for an absolute bargain £15. Otherwise, they're rarely much less than £40.
They're really comfortable (memory foam in the soles) and have proven to be pretty durable - however I found the soles wore out fairly quickly - so don't bother walking any seriously long distances in them. I've still got my old pair just for slipping out into the garden
Despite the issue with the soles I bought another pair for £31.00 yesterday but noticed the price drop today. The courier has been stopped in his tracks, because Amazon couldn't refund the difference and I've re-ordered at the lower price. Black and Brown available across most sizes

Good price for these - as the OP stated they're really comfortable but I also found the soles wore down very quickly. I was walking 70+ miles a week in them, so I'm sure they'd last longer for general day-to-day use!

Cheers, ordered 2x Brown/2x Black. Caught this deal 2 years ago and bought the same and most comfortable shoes ever. Just coming to the end of life for these so dropped on.
I do a lot of driving and use 1 set for driving and another for going out.

14 Jul 16#26
Thanks OP, ordered brown and black.
I usually wear Merrell's for casual going out that look very similar to these and have purchased probably 5-6 pairs over the years in different colours and slightly different designs.
Interested to see how these compare.

Yes of course, easy to slip on & off before they give you a good patting down.

I think hukd has been taken over by hen pecked men who have no style, these shoes are horrendous looking
Absolutely hideous shoes. Just so, so awful. Shame on anyone under 50 years old that wears **** like this, have some god damn respect for yourself.

I bought a pair of these just over a year ago. They lasted only 7 months until the rubber sole wore out and tore. Very disapointed as they look very nice, just not hard wearing at all, be wary purchasing these for every day use.

15 Jul 16#65
Thanks OP - got a pair in Brown as I have a very similar pair that I bought over 5 years ago and still going strong
I now really want the grey but cant find size 10 stock anywhere :-(
EDIT: Grey back in stock this morning!

Found these to be about the most comfy, decent looking shoe I could find. They don't look too out of place for (very casual but at least not trainers) evening wear and otherwise are rather nice to wear. I've had about... 4 pairs now, I get about 6 months out of them before they look past their best then another 6 months as a more day to day pair. They fit most circumstances so you might find them as something of a "go to" pair and kill them faster than usual.
Do agree though, they aren't built for durability. Merrel shoes are meant to be as comfy and perhaps have a bit more durability too.

I won a pair of Lowa & they're comfy & hard wearing. They lasted 3 years!

I am usually size 9 with laced trainers. Should I go for another size if the trainer is slip on ?

Not good. I went on a month long trip doing ~10 miles a day walking in these and had problems. Probably not what they're meant for, mind.

15 Jul 16#70
None left at that price in my size (10-11) but I do already own a brown pair and they're extremely comfortable. They mark easily, and soak up rain water like a sponge, but I'd still have another pair due to their comfort. Ideal for smart casual wear.

Skechers tend to come up big. Need size 13 normally, great..... that's 24.80 in black. But size 12 actually required. And thats twenty squid more :confused:
