I wear these to work every day. Even with the “memory foam” I still added a foam insert

This review is based on trying them on once.
I really like this shoe. It's very comfortable for an "old school sneaker", It has a removable insole with surprisingly good arch support and more cushioning then you'll find in a typical canvas sneaker. They're also very soft and won't rub your ankles raw. Unfortunately, I can't justify keeping them, but I find it difficult sending them back, because I like them so much (i.e. only so much closet room for shoes.)
The sizing is very accurate. They may run a little on the large side, but that's what I'd want, so I could wear them with heavy socks in Winter months. So, I disagree with those who suggest sizing up or down, because they're actually quite accurate (they're definitely not too small and I don't think they're even close to being too large, either.) The Teva brand used to run all over the place with sizing, but the last few pair I've owned and have been really consistent and accurate.
I didn't try them on a bike, but I suspect that they're very good bike riding shoes, because the soles are quite firm. In fact, I would have liked them better if the sole wasn't so firm, but I expected them to be firm as bike riding shoes. Overall, I think they're very nice sneakers, but I'm looking for something a little more fashion oriented.

These are the most comfortable Pumas I’ve ever owned. Good price, quick shipping. Happy with this purchase.

The only problem I have with this shoe is that it is clunky and heavy. It makes quite a bit of noise when walking on a harder surface. None of my other boat shoes have that problem. Looks good though.

I ordered these 206 Collective men's leather shoes for my son. He loves old school tennie's such as the Ked's we wore as kids. So glad they make them now for adults. The off-white leather and suede on these are wonderful! Gives the shoe a more dress-up look. And the insole wraps around the heel area which is very comfortable. I haven't given them to my son yet so I'm not sure how the fit will be on him. But these look and feel very well made. So hopefully I'll come back with an update once he tries these on. I hope he likes them..

The fit of these slip on sneakers is true to size. I got a pair in size 11, and my size 11 foot fits just fine. The fit is better with socks on but even without socks the sneaker has a decent fit (there's some lifting of the heel when not wearing socks but it's not excessive or troublesome).
They are surprisingly comfortable. There's padding that provides reasonable support. They are all plastic in construction which makes them perfect as a garden shoe since I can just hose them off when they get muddy. They are also great for around the house and running errands. I like that they are slip ons, which makes it quick and easy to put on/take off. However, these would not be my first choice for taking long walks -- I prefer lace up shoes for that to provide better support.
The only area that was somewhat disappointing is the sole. The manufacturer claims they are non-slip and that's true when walking on a rough surface, such as a sidewalk. Even in the rain these felt sure footed outside. However, on smooth surfaces, such as a wet tile floor, I didn't get that sure footed feeling. I didn't fall (at least not yet) but I have to be more mindful when walking compared with other shoes that have a softer, more grippy sole. The sole on these shoes is rather hard and unyielding. That's good for making the shoe last a long time without wearing out, but not so good for grip.
The sole drops my score to 4.5 stars but I'll round up to 5 since everything else about these sneakers hits the mark. They fit well and are comfortable, practical shoes. The styling is nothing to shout about, but as long as my feet are happy, I don't care what they look like!

These got to me quick and was just what I was looking for. The worn look is very vintage and will look great in jeans and a tee.
Reviewer James Breasette
Just what I have been looking for. Great support and very light weight. So comfortable.

Sketchers are my favorite! My husband and son destroy clothing and shoes on campouts and just regular activity. I know that these will last them. My husband loved the wide fit. He said he felt like he was walking in platform shoes at first, but likes the memory foam. I should have nabbed a pair for my son!
Reviewer Sandy Nelson
Nice shoe…I probably should have ordered a half size bigger. I can gif 5.5 in mens 7 women, but the 5.5 was a little snug without socks. Still a very nice shoe for the price.
