Nike Dunk Low GS White / Platinum Violet EAB1417

Reviewer Kathryn Pipis

I normally wear 10.5 4e (xw) but with these i had to go down to 10 4e because there was just too much space between heel/toe and shoe.

For the price i paid, these are excellent set like expected. Not my first dunham, ive had many before from boots to sandals.

I bought these specifically for cycling with old fashioned toe clips, because I'm weird and I like to know about history and experience things. They were advertised as 10.5US, they are 44eu instead of 45 eu - meaning they "run small", and it's a small 44. I still fit in them, even if they are a tad tight and have been using them with an old peugeot PH11 with the original triangular pedals from the mid 1980's - that style inspired the Look system of "clipless" pedals famously introduced by Greg Lamond in the famous tour pursuit of the badger. Mostly, I just want to pursue coffee and sunshine.

I think these might be the best shoes you can currently buy for use with cycling toe-clips, without spending a fortune or getting shoes that are 20 years old and falling apart. If you're more accustomed to swing out clipless systems such as Look, CrankBros, or Spd, you will recognize immediately that toe clips are far inferior - it took me a few miles to stop yanking my foot out of the back as I tried to sweep through the bottom of my pedal stroke, and it's hard to remember to loosen the strap when coming to a stop. These Puma shoes are very similar to the old sidi shoes that used to be common in cycling, except there's really no stiffness at the end of the toes, and I could tell that I would get a blister on my big toe as a result, so I must meditate on rule 5 of the Velominati prior to using them. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Puma took this shoe design from an old cycling shoe, the laces are shifted to the outside of the shoe and are easy to keep away from the cranks, while the foot bottom is as stiff as any modern cycling shoe. I think it would be hell to walk around in and I really can't comment on their utility as driving shoes.

The ferrari symbol is a regrettable attribute, as my place in society (AKA not a billionaire) would dictate that anyone wearing such driving shoes while tooling around in their ferrari not only has more money than sense, but likely has additional baggage that (fingers crossed) allows me to feel morally superior; which would make up for being hugely outclassed, financially. It's a kind of 99%'ers sour grapes, you know? If you are this person, please feel free to leave me validating comments about the woes in your otherwise blessed life. Mo-money mo problems?

There were a gift. He absolutely loved them Said they are VERY comfortable. Works in a warehouse with lots of walking. They arrived on time. No problem. They were in a bag not a box, box would have been better.

Reviewer N Clevenger

I bought these for the excellent price. They are sturdy and comfortable.

I'm not one willing to spend 100s of dollars on tennis/walking shoes. But, I do need the type of shoes that support and give comfort to my osto-knees. For, the money, these work for me. I bought a 2nd pair for down the road. I'm satisfied.

Reviewer Trevor Stewart

great fit and feel, and a good deal thanks

Skechers makes some nice shoes. The fit and feel of these shoes was that of quality materials and craftsmanship. Skechers tend to run a bit large for the stated size. I'm a 9.5 (mens US), but I can often wear a 9 in Skechers. This shoe (bone) looks great with flare-leg blue jeans.

Reviewer Christine Clearview

Shoes are for my husband who wears a size 14 and has a difficult time finding shoes that are comfortable and fit well. He loves these Skechers and has had them on since they arrived. He's breaking them in for a trip we are taking in the Spring and no doubt they will serve him well.

Reviewer Charlie Monsanto

My husband likes this shoe for summer. They are somewhat stiff initially but easy to wear & comfortable with a low, no-show sock. We bought two pairs at different times & both times the size smaller was the perfect fit.

Day 1 of a long 9 hour shift. Walking 3-4 miles a day and delivering boxes. Shoes are a bit clunky. My left knee is hurting tonight. I’ve been wearing crap tennis shoes for years, so I’m assuming there will need to be time to adjust. The shoes are also very tall. There’s a decent amount of memory phone, but it’s all just sold rubber and plastic underneath for a good inch. They are noisy and seem a bit slippery.
On the up side, my feet feel pretty good.

Update 2: it’s been two weeks now. Walking 3-4 miles a day. The soles still feel clunky and they are loud. They don’t feel very stable on wet floors. Both my knees are hurting more now. Please don’t ever ever hike in these. I’ve been hunching over more because the heels are so incredibly high, so my shoulders and neck are killing me. The back of the heels hit the back of steps sometimes because they stick out so much. I feel awkward and everyone looks at my shoes when I walk at work because you’d think I was wearing gigantic boots. The soles feel like a hard plastic-like rubber. The memory foam has lost its charm already. The shoe already feels bigger inside, which I wanted at first....but it’s m because the memory foam has lost all its padding depth/comfort. I’d send these back if I didn’t throw the box away. They fool you into thinking they are comfy at first, but then the trouble starts.
I went to a Skechers store and they told me about all the returns they had with this model. At least I only paid $27.
I’m giving them 2 Stars now because I did get such a good deal, but I’d advise you to be weary if your body has a hard time with high soles. If they last a good 6 months, I’ll up the stars.

Update: after a month of wearing them, I’ve started to fit into them nicely. They still squeak and are too loud when walking on concrete floors, but I’m used to it. Aches have gone away.....I’m assuming because my body has adjusted. Back up to 4 stars. Minus one because they are so loud and the soles are too bulky. Also the padding is “meh”. But, I’m glad I got them.
