I've been wearing New Balance cross-trainers for years. They've always been great. These hiking shoes continue that experience.
I bought these hoping for some additional ankle support. Though concerned about the fit and not trying them on, I matched the size of my NB cross-trainers, and hoped for the best. No surprise, they fit just fine.
Looking at them you can tell these are not the typical/traditional heavy hiking boots. They're more of a slightly stiffer high-top sport shoe. Like a sport shoe, they are much lighter than a more traditional boot. They do provide good ankle support, and have a little bit more cushioning than a sport shoe in the sole and ankles. The soles, though Vibram, are also more like a sneaker sole, but seem to provide a very good grip.
All in all, I like 'em.

I’m 45 years old & I have chronic lower back pain. These are extremely comfortable! Great for long day wear. I usually wear crocs everywhere I go, but these are actually better for times when I’m standing or walking more than I’d like to. I usually wear a size 12 wide in mens shoes but because I wear them in the summer w no socks, I bought an 11.5 reg & they fit perfectly.

good quality for the cost.

A loyal Skechers fan. Durability and support are great. Pricing these sneakers at retail stores one could pay at least twenty five percent more. I find walking in these sneakers reduces my back pain and a true blessing.

Nice looking shoe fits well !! All n All a pretty good deal 👌

These shoes didn't require much breaking in, thankfully. The soft outer reflected the soft interior. However, the shoes are thick and heavy, and caused some walks to work to be a little burdensome.

I got these to wear at work as my "casual Friday" shoes. I had read that they were light, so anticipated that they probably wouldn't last that long outside (especially as I do a lot of walking during my work commute).
Sure enough, the box arrived as I was surprised to find it contained the shoes--they were so light!
I put them on with extreme ease. The upper fabric is a bit elastic so it glides over my feet and removes just as easily. The cushioning is great and paired with jeans they look great too.
I would suggest wearing these indoors only. If you are able to store shoes at work like I am, then these are perfect. Outdoors, not so much.
The cushioning is abundant but not overbearing. Because the shoes are light, including the soles, you get a nice bounce to them when walking, and my feet never feel weighted when I have one leg resting on the other while sitting.

Comfortable and fits great. Perfect for 12 hour shifts in a warehouse.

Very durable even after one year of wear . Cleans well and comfortable.

I'm trying to remember when i had these. I never left a comment. I loved these til they fell apart. I am pretty hard on my poor shoes. They lasted longer than I thought.
