20 Best Shoes For No Socks (2023 Updated)

I developed bunions from fallen arches and also lumbar strain from my fallen arches making my pelvis uneven and putting strain on my back. My DO measured me with these shoes on and it fixed my pelvic imbalance.

Arches supported, great with the extra plastic piece as i have high arches normally. Shoes is very cushioned almost springy, but sturdy. Does not rub on ankles or heels like other shoes. Definitely worth it.

Wish they had regular laces but i did not like color combos in the laced styles. I ran a little outside to test and they did well. Great for walking indoor or on a treadmill, also good as an everyday shoe.

I bought these for work. I am a nurse, so my feet take a beating as well as my back. As a child, I always had to wear shoes with a built-up arch due to flat feet. My old shoes were wearing and they no longer carry that particular style.

These shoes popped up while I was looking on Amazon. I ordered a pair of Easy Spirits as well as these. These fit like a glove. I like them so well that I have been wearing them almost daily at home.

Therefore, I just had to buy myself a pair for everyday. My podiatrist saw them the other day and asked what brand they were and if they were comfortable. I proceeded to tell her that they made my feet feel good as well as my back.

The arch is perfect. I have since, introduced them to a friend who will probably be ordering a pair Orthofeet soon. My feet and back thank you.

I have plantar fasciitis plus knee issues. I have purchased several pair of orthofeet shoes in past years. A recent purchase had the laces broken within 30 days. I sent a message to the company regarding the defect.

I am vacationing out of state for several months and these were my primary shoes. Rather than just sending replacement laces the company sent another pair of shoes! Fantastic customer service! These shoes are the most comfortable shoes ever! I go to classes at the gym and walk daily.

I have received many compliments on the shoes and I never fail to recommend orthofeet to others.

I love my new shoes although i wont be ordering from your company again. I’m sorry but for 60 bucks for a pair of shoes you should offer replacement laces. Its not like they are normal shoes you can find laces for them at Walmart.

Your laces are specific to your shoe, so not offering replacement laces is just wrong. I get it, you do not provide the laces the consumer is forced to buy another pair but that’s where you are making a mistake.

Most of your consumers are working class people and buy your shoes for comfort because they are working class. I own a bar/restaurant and am on my feet up to 18 hours a day and I have yet to find another pair of shoes that match your comfort.

I even have all my workers wearing your shoes now. I’ve seen them worn in stores, hospitals, everywhere people stand for long periods of time. I know you send an email saying you can buy replacements on amazon.

But they are not the same and they alter the fit of the shoes. I do not know what it is about your laces but dogs love the. I’ve talked to at least 50 people who have had the same problem as me, their dog ate the laces, not the shoes, just the laces.

Without the laces you have a 60$ pair of worthless shoes. I am not saying offer them for free. Charge for them. I would have easily paid $10 for another pair. You are missing an opportunity for a money maker as well as losing customers.

I am sure that now that your company has been bought by Crocs that they will see the money maker in offering replacement laces but also they will do what they did with Crocs and the quality of your shoes will decline.

The shoes i bought for this review did not have laces, i like them but they are not the same as the original Wendy shoe so I was disappointed. I specifically bought them because they didn’t have laces.

I know I am only one person but there is no way you do not know how many people want replacement laces. I could tell that from the form response I got after emailing begging for laces. I also know when you first started you offered your shoes with extra laces so you knew there was a need.

You have an amazing product that everyone loves. Your word of mouth advertising alone has made you what you are today. I have yet to meet one person who does not love your shoes. They are amazing!! A bit overpriced but amazing and because of that I am willing to pay the price.

Please listen to your customers and get replacement laces. Thank you :).

The shoes are great, made extremely well & long lasting. I have been wearing these shoes for 20 years, for travel & casual wear, good support & comfort for standing many hours whilst cooking & baking.

The go walks have always been true to size, however this pair is too wide & made bigger than previously. I ordered them on line, sent an e mail 2 days ago about returning them and have not heard back.

I called the local store in the West Edmonton Mall – on line orders can no longer be returned & the size 5. 5 is not in store & no longer on line. I appreciate that times are tough now during the pandemic & would appreciate more helpful customer service to resolve this issue.

Thank you.

This is the fourth time I’ve purchased these shoes. I have terrible feet. They’re wide and flat with a bunion on one foot and metatarsal pain in the other. Buying shoes is torture. I reluctantly tried them on in the store one day assuming that because of the medium width they wouldn’t fit but I was pleasantly surprised by how roomy they are.

They’re not too wide but the fabric has just enough give that they comfortably accommodate my wide feet without putting any pressure on the pain points. And, the structure of the shoe along with the memory foam inserts shifts the weight to my heel instead of the ball of the foot so I don’t get any of the metatarsal pain.

I wear them everywhere but they’re especially comfortable to wear at concerts where I’m usually standing (and dancing) for hours at a time. And they’re cute! My teenage son even commented that I looked stylish when he first saw them.

I can’t speak highly enough of these shoes.

I now own three pairs: black, taupe, navy; each purchased separately in the last month. I have wide feet with bunions and they are marvelous. I wish every Skechers had the same last, but alas they do not.

These are pillow-soft, and extra pros are that the flexible fabric accommodates many foot anomalies, and that they are pleasingly light in weight. I would buy additional pairs if more colors were available for a wide foot – which brings me to the Cons.

It is a constant disappointment that Skechers offers only a very limited number of colors in Wide, while many others are available in Medium. Also in regard to color, the knit yarn of this shoe has somewhat of an unwelcome shine which draws attention to it’s synthetic origin; likewise the actual shades are a bit “off”: the navy is overly bright and the taupe is an odd tone.

The comfort, however supersedes all – and I recommend and would buy them again if more shades were available in W. In this particular shoe, sizing is agreeably generous.

I have purchased a lot of stuff from REI over the years ands normally don’t take the time to write reviews. However, since there aren’t any for these shoes I thought I’d write a quickie to let you know that you have simply not lived until you’ve slipped these things on! These shoes are fantastic!! Okay so you’re not going to climb a 14’er in them, obviously, but if you’re looking for a shoe that goes well with shorts, jeans, lounge pants, etc, look no further! The price is very reasonable and I like both colors that REI offers.

I’m wearing the Aegean pair today and have received a few compliments on them. They’re comfy, fit very well, and are suitable for walking 10k steps without experiencing any fatigue. At $64 you really can’t pass these dudes up! Plus, when you see someone else wearing them, you can say “Hey Dude”.

How fun is that??.

I bought these on a recommendation from my brother for a concert. 7 hours of walking and standing, and after about 2 hours, the tops of my feet were getting sore, so I loosened up the rubber laces so the material didn’t rub.

This just made the shoes too loose, and I ended up developing blisters from the friction. Once I got home, I took a look at them and realized that the shoes were flat-footed instead of arched, which ended up causing the majority of the pain.

Summary note: The material is very thin and the shoes feel cheaply made, like I’d be surprised if they last a year with light use. I’ll end up wearing them casually or around the house, but I would not rebuy this model, possibly a different one.

On a side note, the warranty and return policies are incredibly short with stricter requirements.

I like the color, design, and overall comfort of these. This is my 4th pair of Dudes in less than a year, and I keep going back to the website to see if there are any additional color combinations that seem appealing.

So far all of mine have held up well. I haven’t tried washing any yet, to see how that fairs. But overall, I suggest them to everyone. Wife has a couple pairs now, Mom does, and a few co-workers. Will see how they hold up quality wise.

But theses appear to be well done. The only pair I have purchased that I haven’t liked is the Wally Sox Fleece. They appeared to be a little sown wonky making them a little less than roomy in the toe box.

But all other pairs have fit perfectly. You can take away my dudes, when you pry them from my cold dead feet.

I purchased these based on the reviews and needing washable shoes as the shoes I previously wore to work (King Gee Superlites in fabric) are no longer available. Ive got to say I am very disappointed in these Sketchers.

The comfort factor and the sole are no different than much cheaper versions of the same type of shoe Ive owned previously for casual wear. I bought a half size bigger as my feet swell standing up all day long but the uppers have stretched a lot after 6 weeks of wear so my feet slide forwards now, washing the shoes only helps for a day and the stretched uppers are back again.

They also make your feet sweat and the innersole becomes smelly in a few days. Imo if you want a great pair of work shoes that are totally non slip (I work in a greasy shop) for a fast paced environment that dont do all the above go with the King Gee superlites only available in leather now unless you can find a pair of the older fabric style in your size somewhere.

The KG’s are the best shoes I have EVER worn for working 8 hrs a day non stop without a break to sit down. These sketchers may be good for casual walking or standing for a couple of hours in a slow environment, but not for all day long working.

A solid sole instead of the broken up sole the sketchers have might improve them but I still would not buy them again. I am going back to the King Gees even though I dont really want leather ones simply because the comfort support and quality are there in bucket loads.

LOVED Skechers GoWalk shoe design and owned several pairs I eventually wore out! The newer designs in your slip-ons have been a HUGE disappointment, especially in FIT and top materials! The STRETCH-FIT sounded great, but it’s become my nemesis! It should always have a “Warning” label: BUY AT LEAST A HALF-SIZE SMALLER! I now own 2 nice pairs of GoWalk Joy – Sensational Day, in my normal size 8, that are too big & wide because of “Stretch-Fit”!! It’s tooo Stretchy to get a good Fit! If it fits at first, it’ll be HUGE too soon (& too late to return)! Mine have been slipping in the heel as well.

I can wear them around the house as loose slippers, which is a big waste of money for me! Also, that stretchy fabric shows every lump, bump, & toe joint just like a sock. Overall it’s just not as supportive a shoe as it used to be! And your other slip-ons I’ve tried in the last couple of years have had problems with fit and very inconsistent sizing that makes it much harder to order Skechers online, as many of us prefer! PLEASE FIX these issues — Skechers have been my favorites for years!!.

I bought a couple of pairs one or two years ago. My very troubled feet (arthritic and flat footed) love them. When it came time to get new ones, I had difficulty locating the same model. So I tried similar Skecher shoes, but, in all, I ended up returning 6 pairs as they did not measure up to this model.

Evidently, Skecher has moved on to a different Pillar technology in their more recent models. All of the returned shoes made me feel unstable as the soles were too soft and mushy. I’m glad see glad to have a new black pair of the GOwalk Smart Wise 124043.

Sure wish I had finally found these before they were sold out in Navy. PS- I have spent and wasted a lot of money on Orthotics and orthopedic shoes. By rights, this Skechers style feels 100 times better on my feet.

Please Skechers don’t stop making this model with this Comfort pillar technology. More colors please!.

My focus has been to find a shoe that I could wear during the latter half of my pregnancy. While my feet aren’t swollen per se, they get swollen when I walk or wear shoes for a long period of time. I wanted a shoe that was supportive, breathable and will expand with my feet.

These shoes hit all of those marks. While they aren’t the “cutest” shoe, they certainly aren’t bad and can give a comfy chic vibe with the right athleisurewear. What I’m saying is, you can make them cute.

They remind me more of an athleisure version of Toms. I ordered the shoe in my normal size 10 and with my “growing” feet, they fit perfectly. I highly recommend this shoe if you have your shoe hunt is similar to mine.

These are my first pair of Sketchers and I’m really happy with them. It’s a bit like wearing a sock, but with a supportive, grippy sole. Soooo comfy! And you can machine wash them too, which is great.

They’re not the most breathable of shoes, so the ability to wash them is fantastic. They don’t rub my feet or slip around and they have a good bit of room without being overly loose. Those with really, really narrow and small feet may struggle though, so just be aware of that as they seem to run slightly big.

My feet are flat, but average (size 6) and not particularly wide. If you can get these on sale, then I really recommend them!.

I broke my ankle in two places 4 months ago and needed a pair of comfort shoes to be able to wear and stand on my feet for sometime due to working in retail. The sketches Go Walk shoes I bought are so comfortable and easy to slip on and support my ankle and feet.

I don’t even realise I have shoes on when wearing them. Would highly recommend Sketches shoes for anyone with feet problems or just wanting comfortable shoes to wear for the day. Thanks also to the staff in ladies shoes who were very caring and friendly to help me purchase suitable shoes to support my feet.

My son picked these out he was really impressed when they showed up at how comfortable they were. He loves the deep hunter green color and how easy the shoe is to get on and off. Plus, he loves not having to slow down to tie shoes! His only complaint was that the band across the top of his foot was a bit tight at first.

It did get looser and more comfortable for him within about 2 days. He’s been wearing these non-stop since they arrived! We will for sure order another pair when he outgrows them!.

I bought the first pair of these for my husband several years ago. His knees are always hurting and he wanted shoes that were comfortable for walking or for long days standing and teaching. These shoes fit the bill.

He will wear them until they have no tread left on the bottom and are ready for the trash. He now has 3 different pair on the shoe rack by the front door. Knowing that he loves this shoes makes it easy for me to go shoe shopping when he shoes are raggedy.

The price is great, the shoes are so very comfortable, and easy to put on (which is important as we age) Highly recommend them.

I’m not certain what Adidas did to this line of shoes, but they no longer have a snug fit. They are too wide and have lost the sleek athletic look they used to have on your feet. They were much better with CloudFoam vs.

the PrimeGreen. I loved the old version of these shoes as they used to fit my narrow feet so well. Sadly, that’s no longer the case. Just really bummed as they were great shoes.

I bought the GOwalk 6 Wide Slip-on Sneakers about three weeks ago but have not let go since then. It is so comfortable especially for those of us with wide feet. It is so difficult to find shoes with wide fitting these days.

I don’t have to bend down to to put it on; my feet just slide in. I hope it lasts long enough. I recommend the GOwalk 6 Wide Slip-on Sneakers for those with wide feet. Those with narrow feet should not try it.

Bought these for my husband and he loves them! The color, the style, but most of all, the comfort. He doesn’t really like to walk, for exercise, but has been more open to walking with me, because he says the shoes are so comfortable.

Highly recommend!.

I got these to my hubby many years ago and now he is addicted to this styles. Don’t know how many times I bout these shoes. They are comfortable and light. Good for work or walk.

These are the only Shoes my Son likes to buy and Wear. He’s on his feet for 8 hrs at work. He said they’re so comfortable and Loves the Slip ons. He will continue to keep buying them.

Great for travel nice and light to pack and very comfortable for walking. With a size 14 I’m Impressed I found such a comfortable shoe. Will definitely buy sketchers again in the future. My wife just ordered a pair for herself.

My brother is blind, so I like to buy him shoes that are easy to slip on and he doesn’t have to tie. It has been fairly easy to find him dressier shoes, but I’ve wanted to get him “sneakers” for a while now – and then I saw these! The only thing I’m a little concerned about is that I ordered wide width.

My husband has the same sized feet as my brother, and usually tries shoes on to see how they feel. When these arrived, he said they felt a little tight. I’m hoping that either they will feel better on my brother, or that he can break them in a bit.

I see that they have even a 2X wide, so next time I’d probably go with that. But I think he’ll really like these shoes. If so, I hope I can get them in the color they were out of this time around.

I wear a size 14 wide and ordered exactly that but when the merchandise arrived the shoes were sadly way too small (too short and too narrow)l. I exchanged/returned them (I consider having to go to the UPS store a hassle) straight-away for a size 15 extra wide.

Those fit very nicely and well worth the hassle. These shoes are super easy to get on and off. I liked the blue and white pair so much that I ordered a second, over-sized, black and white pair. They fit just fine too.

These are what I consider the perfect, old-man walking shoes. I put some Dr. Shoals arch supports in them and they feel even better. I’m thinking about ordering a third pair just in case they stop making them.

Should you decide to try these puppies, I recommend you size-up.

These are the most comfortable sports shoes I have ever worn. Stylish, high quality and reasonably priced. It is the only shoe I wear due to no-shoelace ties. I typically buy 2 or 3 pairs at a time as I wear a very large size.

Enjoy rotating multiple color selections, too.

Bought these for my husband, who needed shoes with arch and heel support, and also stylish casual shoe. I was skeptical because he is so picky when it comes to shoes. He loves them! So happy with this purchase.

Just wish they had them in more than the one color, which was brown. But, he’s happy, so Im happy!.

I have a high instep and very wide feet, so it’s hard to find a leather shoe that will actually fit and is comfortable. This is my third pair of these, and I was really disappointed that Skechers wasn’t selling them anymore.

So happy that my wife found these on your website. Good price, free shipping, the exact shoes that I wanted.

These shoes are great for folks with arthritis in their feet and early stages of toes curling under. The leather uppers help protect feet from sticks, etc when walking in the woods. The soles are good at helping to keep from slipping around on wet surfaces.

The only thing that I’m not happy with is that the soles hold on ti sticker burrs just like every other osir of shoes i have.

Ordered the vegan 11. 5 and they were too big – sent them back no problem. Ordered the black/silver 11’s – too small in length, returned to the store and tried the 11 wide in black, fit great! Went home an ordered 11 wide in black/silver and a pair of More v3 in silver/white – I have the More v3 in black/white size 11 that I use for work so I wanted a pair for home and running.

The More v3 arrived first and they’re too short! I think the sizing is in consistent cuz my black/white More v3’s fit great, especially in the toe box. Then I got the black/silver 990 v5’s. Again, the sizing seems inconsistent.

The all black pair I tried in the store fit like a glove, but these are a bit long in length, but not enough to send back. They actually feel real comfortable Solid construction, quality materials, real nice foot bed.

The tongue tho, it slips toward the front of the shoe with walking. I managed to rig it by using the the 2nd to last shoe lace hole to pull the tongue up so that it stays in place. Thankfully the laces are extra long so that this is possible.

Overall I’m stoked. I expect these shoes to last a long time – definitely an everyday shoe. And New Balance has been great. I’ve ordered and returned several pairs of shoes in the process and had no issues.

My collection includes 880 V10, More v3, and 990 v5. Muy Bien! Gracias!.

I got these shoes for walking my dog four-to-five miles seven days and to wear to my part-time job 3-to-4 hours a day four days a week. They are adequate and no more than that but it would be unfair of me not to qualify why I say that.

I suffered nerve damage from a series of backpacking trips carrying too much weight five years ago that have left me with a certain degree of numbness in my feet. These shoes are an improvement over my older Vasque hiking shoes that were wearing out, particularly with regard to the degree of cushion they provide.

Where they fall down is in the degree of support. When I first got these I hesitated and nearly returned them but decided to give them a chance. I have wound up getting another pair of sturdier walking shoes from another American retailer to use more regularly than these and will use these for lighter duty.

They’re decent shoes but if you’re 68 years old fighting numbness like me they may not be the ones you need. I know this review doesn’t apply to everybody which is why I wrote it the way I did. At the same time I suspect it does apply to some people.

Ditto.

I purchased these shoes for my father who recently had knee sugery. He needed a strudy, confortable slip proof shoe for walking with a cane. With not being able to get to a store easily, I hit up my all time fav DSW website.

Trying to find a stylish gym shoe that doesn’t look like a gym shoe is pretty tough. He prefers a black shoe with a black sole. I found these and thought they would fit all of his needs. My father was very pleased with the shoes! Very comfortable, with a lot of support and cushion inside.

He can wear them to therapy with sweat pants and with jeans to go out. Extremely happy with this purchase and the excellent service DSW provides for online shoppers!.

Bought this for husband, a bartender. He didn’t like how it looked on line, but I thought it was ok, so decided to buy it anyway. here’s his comment: Pros – super comfortable. Can last a day to night and have no complaints afterwards.

– did not look as bad in person as online – received lots of compliments Cons – very, very hot. He’s thinking of poking some holes for ventilations Overall, it’s 4 1/2 star. because of the ventilation.

Otherwise, it’s something he would consider stock piling!.

I recently bought this online. The reviews that said the shoe fits true to size were not accurate. This was my first and last time buying shoes online. I will not be doing it again. I learned my lesson.

From now on I will buy in the store.

I ordered these in an 8. 5 in Blush and Taupe. They are true to size. The taupe is more like a brown color. The blush is tan in certain lighting and blush in other light. They are very comfortable and I’ve received many compliments on them.

Wish they sold them in black! The back zippers stuck a little bit, I just rubbed some lip balm on them and now they work fine.

finally found a pair of shoes on here true to size and i didnt have to return! Very stiff so im hoping they loosen up but they look so cute on and are the perfect hight without being uncomfortable. Two thumbs up for these.

Really cute sandal. Haven’t worn yet, but these came right when ordered to work from home. I’m still considering wearing them around the house with my pajama pants, though.

Overall this shoe looks and feels great, it’s true to size and is very comfortable considering it’s made of 20% recycled materials. I used them all day without ever feeling strain or discomfort and they are also useful as workout shoes.

The shoes feel light and are not a bother, making them better for an all-day shoe. The one gripe I had with them was the tread on the bottoms of the shoe that resemble those of soccer cleats, that made them feel a little off on certain surfaces and terrains but despite that, you can’t feel them and they are not difficult to wear.

The design of the shoe overall was really nice and sleek, the colorway was neutral and made the shoe easy to wear for any fit. This shoe is in no way a formal shoe but you can use it in a typical everyday setting.

The only thing I did not like about the design is the bottom tread resembles cleats but that does not take from the overall style of the shoe. It has a good look for the outdoors and has a hiking vibe to it but would not use them in more extreme weather conditions simply because of the material.

The best part about the shoes is the overall comfortability and feel. They are easy to wear physically and styling-wise. They are comfortable and depending on the outfit can go with most styles and occasions.

They are easy to put on and take off but do not fall off easily. The only thing I would personally change is the spilt bottom with the bumps to make it feel a little less off when walking. But overall I love these shoes and would wear them on a daily basis.

First, the shoe is wildly too narrow. I don’t have wide feet. Pretty normal width by all accounts. The ball of the foot at the big toe hangs over the sole on one side and my pinky toe hangs off on the other… that’s with purchasing a size larger.

There is not enough room in the toe box in any direction, including upward space so that the toes, especially the big toe, are not smashed down. Fortunately, the material is light and stretchy, so this smashing pressure is not uncomfortable… just irritating.

Second, why is there a tongue that is disconnected from the body of the shoe? The material is only a little more substantial than a sock… that’s part of the selling point. Yet, none of my socks have a tongue, and certainly none have one that can roll up, ball up, or slide down to the side.

I get that you want a shoe aesthetic, but that could also have been accomplished by attaching the tongue to the shoe at a couple of points. It’s not as though you have to loosen the laces and lift the tongue to get your foot in the shoe.

It’s stretchy fabric. That’s the whole point. Even Chuck Taylor All Stars started connecting the tongue to the shoe, and those are more shoe than sock. Finally, they’re not a breathable as I was lead to believe.

I don’t have as good a proposal to fix this, but I was riding my bike in them the other day, and could literally not feel any air blowing through the fabric over my feet at all. No cool air was getting in, which makes me think no sweat or warm air are getting out.

Give us more room in the toe area, make the sole wider to provide comfort and protection for the whole foot, and make the tongue more of an aesthetic element than a [poorly] functional part of the shoe, and these shoes are at least a 4, maybe a 5.

Fix the breathability, and the shoe will be awesome. In conclusion, I am wearing them and I will continue to do so (albeit a size larger than I normally wear), but there are some seemingly pretty easy improvements that would make them much better.

I am usually a size 8, but my feet are narrow so I got the size 7 which fits well with no socks! The toes are a little tight but will stretch over time (an employee told me the 7 has the same size sole as the 8, it just has tighter fabric).

One of my favorite things about these shoes are they are very quiet when walking. They don’t clunk the floor and are very flexible and light. Flexibility is always a plus. I am autistic and have sensory issues, so being able to wear these without socks and still be comfortable is great.

I love that they can be machine washed, and they are very comfortable on the heels (though I am only 120 lbs so it may not have enough cushion for someone heavier). They look really nice, I like how they are smaller than my normal shoes which makes them look sleek.

I would not recommend these for someone with high arches, since they don’t have much support in that way unless you want to add a special insole. You can leave these tied and slip them on and off but the insoles may slip out with your foot.

Overall they are nice, I do wish the tag was attached to the shoe though. I have a pair of digital knit converse that don’t have an actual tag and they are so much easier to slip on and comfier.

I have been looking for a set of shoes that will allow me to reduce the number of pairs of shoes I need to pack when I travel. I ordered the Olive Green Zilkers and after my first trip, I love them! They pack down super flat and take up almost no space.

On my first trip, I wore them out on a boat, took them on a leisurely hike, and wore them around town for two weeks. I wouldn’t recommend them for a any super strenuous or technical hike, but for 90% of what you will do on any travel trip, they are awesome.

As far as appearance goes, they look nice enough that they will work with long pants and a button up shirt, but also look great in shorts and a t-shirt. Comfort-wise, they are super comfortable and lightweight.

Because of the light weight material on top, they are great for hot climates, but that also means that they might not be enough in cold conditions. Overall, I love them and will probably end up getting another pair or two at some point in different colors.
