These do exactly what it says on the tin - comfortable, no breaking in needed. Definitely waterproof. The insole is perfect for posture and takes pressure off the knees.
Don't think you need to order the usual half size bigger - they fit perfectly as your size is normally. Relaxed fit so breathing space over and around the foot where ut usually gets tight so no worries. My only problem is that I was cautious, ordered 5.5 rather than 5 and need to re-order! Very frustrated having to play in old shoes - need these now!
Can only recommend these the same as all Skechers - perfect design for all feet, no issue for any problems. I wear this brand for all activities and love these especially with the hybrid style sole - not dimples, but not trad spikes - very clever. Thinking of ordering two pairs now!
