Skechers Women's Bulkin Balran 108033 Industrial Shoe, Gray/Black, 8.5

I bought the black ones. I work 10 hour shifts at my job. I've worn these for the last 3 days & they are super comfortable. They are also lightweight. The only downside is the shoe strings won't stay tied so I double knot them. They are also true to size. You really can't tell they are composite shoes. They aren't bulky like most others. You could wear these out in public & no one would know they are composite. Love these!

This shoe is great, its the most comfortable safety shoe I've had yet! I work 50+ hours a week on concrete floors so a comfortable shoe of course is needed. I purchased a size up because I wanted extra room in the composite toe area to avoid calluses, as a woman that's been a downside to wearing steel/composite toe shoes. So I have extra room so the shoe doesn't rub against my feet and it still fits nice even a size bigger. I would highly suggest different insoles though, as typical with many safety shoes, I buy the ones specifically tailored for walking on hard surfaces and has gel in them. Besides that, it's a great shoes which honestly is to be expected from Sketchers!

I’m roughly a 8.5-9 in women’s, I work 10hr to 12hr shifts on my feet at a warehouse. I ordered a 9 but I could have gotten away with an 8.5 or even an 8. I’ll buy them in another color when these need to be replaced as well.Pros-They’re cute and the pink is exactly what I expected. The carbon fiber toe box seems sturdy enough and the shoes will reflect when I have to go outside at work for the semi truck drivers to see me easier with my vest, and they feel like regular sneakers for the most part. They do have enough room for swelling if you have narrow feet that swell/sweat throughout your shift. They are also cat approved by my boy Leo!Cons-The back of the right shoe looks a bit worn and is scuffed a little at the toe box, not too bad if you work in a similar environment as I do since they will be well worn in quickly. The neoprene tongue is fully attached which makes it kind of fold in when they are laced up. And they run about a 1/2 size larger than what I expected. I won’t return them though as the sizing doesn’t bother me too much, they will just kind of feel like clown shoes till I get used to them.For breaking in shoes like these, I would suggest an hour or two a day for a week, and slowly build up an hour a week until they are comfortable. For instance, 2hr/day for week 1, 3-4hr/day for week 2, etc. similar to breaking in new running shoes to prevent the worst blisters. You might need inserts as there’s not much arch support.Overall I like them and will likely purchase them again in the future. At my warehouse and every warehouse in the company, safety shoes are a requirement.

Most uncomfortable Skecher I have ever owned. Feels like walking on cement even though it says memory foam inside the shoe. These are slip on style and they are do hard to put on and get tight enough so they don’t slip on the heel.

I really like the brand and the way they fit. With me being on my feet 10 hrs a day. I also love the color

These shoes are perfect for work, but we’re horrible breaking in. Make sure you wear long socks for the first two or three weeks so you don’t get blisters on the back of your feet.

Not only cute but comfy ,
