SkechersMen's Cessnock Food Service Shoe

Surprise in the Snow
I purchased this shoe as well as a pair of the Skecher Afterburn M tennis shoes. I wanted a dedicated work shoe, because I was going though my shoes pretty quickly from wearing the same pair all the time. So, being that I had already had two previous pairs of the “Afterburn” shoe, and burned through each of them in just over a year respectively, I decided to get another pair of them and also get a pair of the Cessnock Food Service Shoe strictly for work. Both pairs of shoes arrived yesterday, and today I wore the Food Service shoe (FSS) to work for the first time.I slipped them on and found them to be a perfect fit. They are very light weight and comfortable. Usually, I find new shoes need a few days of wear to break-in until they really conform to the shape of your foot and then begin to fit well, but that wasn’t the case with these FSS shoes; they fit perfectly the moment I put them on.I wore them all day at work and discovered something that really surprised me. We had a snowstorm today and got about 2” by the time I got to work, and had a good 7” by the end of my shift. I park outside so of course I have to brush the snow off the car. After doing so I knocked the snow off my shoes before getting into the car. I was surprised to see that the snow didn’t stick to the material on top of the shoes, it was as if there was a water repellant in/on the material. I was sort of wondering why my feet weren’t getting cold while I was cleaning off my car and I guess that explains it. Another surprise was the fact that these shoes make no sound when walking on a tile floor while having wet soles. The “Afterburn” tennis shoes squeak like a rusty hinge when the bottom of the shoe is wet and you walk across tile or other such surfaces, but the FSS’s, are quiet as a mouse, not a sound comes from them, you could almost call them Ninja shoes.As for the style, well that’s a personal preference and these shoes suit me just fine. I think they look sharp, and nobody even noticed I had a new pair of shoes on today.Durability is the unanswered question and being that I’ve only worn them one day, that question will remain unanswered for a while. If I can get a solid two years out of them, just wearing them to work, I will definitely buy them again and certainly would recommend them to a friend.I hope this review helps with your decision. Peace.

Great, comfortable fit for a uniquely shaped foot.
Bought a pair that was similar but a different style a year ago and had to replace them as I literally walked holes through the rubber soles. They were the best shoes I've ever had. Bought these put of necessity and while the shoes hurt to wear the first couple pf days, these took far less time than the last pair I owned and are even better.I have extremely wide feet at the toes due to growing up "toe-walking" with a very narrow heel, so on the rare occasion I can find shoes that fit my width even a little, my heel comes put when I walk. My feet would also rip them apart within months. The slightly stretchy material of these shoes accommodate my wide toes but keep my heels in place. My last pair didn't suffer any damage due to my feet and only due to normal wear and tear.I even bought a size 11 (no wide) and it fits my weird feet fantastically. If you have a similar issue with your feet, give them a try!

For work environments that require long standing:
This is now my second pair of these shoes for work purposes. My job requires standing all day, so finding a comfortable, breatheable, cost effective non slip shoe was a neccessity, and these check all the boxes. The only quality issue I had during my first ownership was the rubber on the very front point of the shoes started peeling along the edges slightly but was cosmetic only. I work in a very tough environment so I am not suprised the shoes wore out completely in a little over one year. In easier environments they should last much longer. I am not a fan of the memory foam insoles although they seem like a good idea, do not provide much support or comfort after standing for 10 hours. Pairing these with a good supportive insole makes for a super supportive work shoe that does an incredible job of taking the discomfort out of standing for long periods. Beware however that because these do not have shoelaces and the opening is designed to stretch to get your feet in, there is no ankle support whatsoever so taking the wrong step at an angle will cause the shoe to roll underneath your foot and you will roll your ankle a few times wearing these. Despite this, they still stay perfectly tight to your feet all day long as long as you do not twist your ankles and do not ever feel loose, and for me it is worth it to not have to tie shoe laces multiple times a day.

It’s no slip shoe
I love the non slip design, and the memory foam footbed is perfect for me when I work in the restaurant. It’s nice to move around and not slip or fall. I highly recommend them

Great shoes!
I am new to food service so I was comparing a few brands, but have always trusted the quality of sketchers (to some extent haha). These are definitely the best made and fitting shoes I’ve ever worn from them! I wish they made all their shoes this nice. Just saw they are marked down and ordered another pair. Very comfy and easy to clean. Well constructed. They fit my feet absolutely perfectly. No sliding around or slipping off. Literally the only thing that would make these better is if they had a safety toe. Why food service shoes do not have them is strange to me, but here we are. At least there are shoes like this on the market!Wanted to add an edit now that I had to shovel a ton of snow while wearing these shoes. They’re not necessarily warm, but my feet stayed dry. This was during the blizzard that just came through on 12/23-24. I live in Cleveland so we got hit hard but these shoes performed surprisingly well! I planned on wearing them to shovel a path to my car to get my waterproof/ insulated work boots to wear while finishing the driveway but I just left these on when I saw how well they stayed dry. So I feel it’s safe to say they should repel just about anything a kitchen could throw at it!

Easy to put on and remove, and comfortable
Mens Skechers Cessnock Food Services Shoes are easy to put on and remove as there are no laces to deal with. The laces are purely decoratave. They are comfortable, have good traction, are easy to clean and they look good. I wear them as casual foot ware and I don't worry about them getting wet or dirty.

Si sirven para subir un cerro, para el trabajo son mas que excelentes.
El día que me llegaron fui a el campo a subir un cerro y pensé que se romperian pero aguantaron perfectamente, por lo tanto para mi trabajo donde tengo que estar largas horas de pie sirven de maravilla, ayudan mucho a no sentir el cansancio en los pies. Los recomiendo ampliamente.

Same brand, different size but excellent quality nevertheless
I wear a US 9 sketchers usually but had to return this one for a US 8 as it was much larger than expected. Otherwise, this is a great shoe for moving around at work (I'm a healthcare worker) and the style fits most business and casual settings.
