SkechersMen's Afterburn M. Fit Fashion Sneakers – Leather Upper, Memory Foam Insole, Rubber Outsole

Been wearing these for past 1.5 yrs. Fantastic shoe. Very comfortable. I got a 10.5 WIDE size that fits me really well. The only thing they should improve is to increase the lace length a bit more for the wide size. Current lace size is quite small and it becomes difficult to tie the last eye of the knot.

I've waited to hike over 10 miles in these before reviewing. Firstly, they are noticeably easier to put on and take off than my old Avias. The soles are heavy and rugged and the memory foam shapes to your foot after a few miles and holds that basic shape. They look pretty good too. Skechers seem to me to run a little on the wide side so if you have a narrow foot, you might feel like they're a tad loose. Like any new show, you need to break them in before they begin to feel comfy. I expect these to last a long time. They seem very well made. I sort of wish I'd gone with the brown color over the gray but it's a minor thing.

I wanted to leave a review for these shoes specifically because Amazon has a habit of throwing old reviews at the buyer rather than more recent ones. There aren't many with a fair critique, or they resort to "omg it sucks/rocks". So, here we go.After years of using TredSafe shoes due to just not having the money to afford fancy-shmancy, I bit the bullet on these shoes figuring I could at least default to other shoes if they didn't work out. Also, a lot of reviews complained on durability and such, but they were recommended, so I went for it.Durability: Uhhhh, folks must have run over their pairs with a lawn mower to get them wrecked like they were, because wow have mine been accidentally kicked into and scraped by a LOT of old metal equipment and hardware with basically no damage. Really, the only damage was a screw I somehow stepped on, drilling a hole into the bottom. I mean, it didn't poke my foot, so no harm done.Comfort: Okay, so memory foam is a big "your mileage may vary" situation, but generally the foam is pretty okay in these shoes. Seeing as I run around a lot more at my new job than I did my old one, these do pretty good at cushioning my 13W feet. Then again, I am also a tall dude, so the memory foam cushioning may not be as effective for me. It hasn't been long enough to really wear it out either, but again, your mileage may vary. Also depends on whether you really understand memory foam, which I kind of don't. I might be totally off-base.But anyways. Even without that, the general feel and support of the shoe is good. The fact that my heels basically never hurt after eight-hour shifts when they would tend to hurt in the old, cheap TredSafe shoes is a pretty good testament to that fact.The fit: It fits...? I mean, 13W feet, I bought 13W. It fit pretty much as expected. The only minor complaint I can make is more a special case: there isn't a lot of room for inserts. See, I'm weird and have a tendency to put more pressure on the front of my feet than the heel, and not a shoe can be found at reasonable price for someone weird like me. I'd like to be able to fit some front support into the shoes to counter that, but there's just not enough room. Maybe once I wear out the memory foam, but otherwise... Well, that's a "me" thing. If you walk like a normal person rather than like I did as a kid to catch late-night TV without being caught, then you should be okay.Other stuff: One other minor complaint is just a typical sneaker issue but a bit worse. When the bottoms of the shoes get wet, walking on any kind of hard floor gives off an obnoxious squeaking sound. I don't mean like "basketball court" squeaking. I mean like "twisting leather" squeaking. To be fair... They're sneakers. They'll make noise like that, but it's usually not that annoying. They do dry out pretty quick so long as you don't keep getting them wet, so it doesn't last particularly long.So... Four stars? Yeah. They're pretty good overall, and they sure do take a beating. I keep expecting something I do to rip it open, but there isn't a single tear or crack anywhere (besides the hole from the screw). Main problem is just memory foam getting in the way of using inserts, lack of front foot support for those like yours truly, and the obnoxious wet squeak. Still a solid shoe, though. Worth the money.Update: 07/22/2023Just bought a second pair because the pair I use finally showed signs of serious wear, which is pretty impressive since I've used these shoes for almost everything from job work to yard work. They have had their soles handed to them regularly and only just now started actually falling apart in any measure. They aren't dead just yet, but the shoes were on a good sale so I bought pair two ahead of time.I did end up wearing out the memory foam rather quick (but I also walk weird, so once again your mileage may vary) but pulling them out to replace with new inserts was really easy, so it was a simple swap-out. I will say it's best to just swap for more memory foam since other "support" inserts didn't help just because of the shoe's own support.So yeah, running back in to say you REALLY have to try to destroy these shoes to make them fall apart: for having lasted 3 years of me, they've done a very good job staying together. They're still comfortable, pretty good support, and make the annoying leather-twisting noise when wet, but I definitely think they're worth the price, sale or not.

The Skechers Men's Afterburn deliver the perfect extra-wide width fit that I need; in addition, the Skechers brand has always provided the style & good looks that I've come to expect. The Skechers are well made and have a very comfortable memory foam insole that makes daily wear a true pleasure. The Afterburn is the 3rd pair of various Skechers that I've had in the last 2 yrs - each has delivered long-lasting wear & maintained their appearance with minimal cleaning. Highly recommend the Skechers extra-wide width for a perfect fit & daily wear.

I've been wearing these for 10 years now. I could get 11.5 wide at Khols, but they have since limited what sizes they have on the shelf. Khols online wasn't any better. Amazon is amazing, I found these shoes and my size on here and I bought a pair. When I needed another pair, they were on sale and I bought 2 pairs for the price of one. I will be devastated when Amazon doesn't have my size in their store. They fit so wonderful and the memory foam helps walking 5k to 10k steps a day for work. It's like walking on clouds!

I damaged the soft tissue in my right heel while using an old shovel without a frog. That’s the lip on top. Went to my primary doctor, explained what I had done. She explained that the same thing happened to her. Pain never went away for several weeks. Went to a podiatrist explained her issue. The podiatrist looked at x-ray, then gave her an injection to the area of foot. After a week pain in foot was gone. I did the same & saw a podiatrist. Your is not healing because of your terrible flat feet. You need a different shoe to help the situation. He named 3 brands of shoes costing $500. dollars a pair. No way! What are the characteristics of these shoes. Of coarse they must have great arch for your foot. Fairly sturdy shape with soft insole. OK I will find a pair that meets these specifications. I have had foot troubles all my life & already knew the shoes that worked for me. This pair by Shechers work great for me!

Very comfortable, I work in a butcher shop in upstate NY, they lasted me a little over a year with heavy use. They were soft on the inside, fairly breathable, good grip on the soles, good laces, I would buy them again. I could have changed the inserts and gotten another few months out of them but they were getting very worn.

There very comfortable, I need wider shoes than you can usually get when you order shoes, these fit great, look great, and the price was amazing for sketchers, I'd definitely buy them again if I ever Wear them out, my last pair lasted 6 years, I finally found these on Here, thanks Amazon!

I have used Skechers running shoes for quite a few years now, and have found them to be well-made and long lasting. They are so durable, that I only have to discard a pair when the actual rubber sole is worn down too far, and I would estimate that I get about 4000km at least per pair. This particular model is a great fit if you have wide feet.
