Best Walking Shoes for Men of 2025

"I've just received my 5th pair today. I will order more as needed. The floors at my work are hard concrete, and I started wearing these Skechers Go Walk about 3 years ago due to increasingly sore feet. They’ve been the solution to my discomfort. I have both blue and black pairs, and while I'm not into fashion, they work well with my khakis. They provide enough support for 6-7 hours on my feet and are very lightweight. I would appreciate an improvement in the sole lifespan, as they wear down a bit quickly, but I manage to make them last around 12 months. The price is also a concern, as I noticed an $11 increase recently. Overall, a great pair of shoes that I would recommend for comfort."

"I tend to read the worst reviews first when shopping on Amazon, which often reveal more about a product. However, I took a chance on the Skechers Go Walk Max despite some lukewarm feedback and am pleasantly surprised. I own another pair, the Go Walk Pro Arch, that has held up well for a year. I bought these in size 10.5, extra-wide, and they fit true to size: lightweight and comfortable with the extra room I need. I chose the all-black version to wear with suits without standing out too much. They might not be stylish, but they feel great!"

"These shoes are amazing! They are more comfortable than anything I've ever worn. The mesh material allows them to breathe incredibly well, and they fit snugly without causing any discomfort due to their flexibility. I will never buy another running shoe again!"

"I got these for my son and he really enjoys them. They fit true to size and the quality is excellent. Super comfortable with good arch support, I'm very pleased with this purchase."

"I love these shoes! They fit great and are very comfortable. As a bigger guy, I usually get about four months out of each pair. Great value for the price!"

"Finally found wide shoes that actually fit my feet! I got the extra wide size 13 and they are perfectly comfortable and seem durable so far."

"I find these shoes to be very comfortable, stylish, and lightweight. The workmanship is exceptional and they are durable. The soles wrap up higher than most, making them ideal for wet conditions. I got the size 10.5 wide, and they fit perfectly. The slip-on feature is fantastic! I’m very happy and will definitely buy again."

"I switched to these shoes from my running sneakers for work where I spend 10 hours on my feet. I initially liked my running shoes, but the constant model changes and high prices were frustrating. These Sketchers are easy to slip on and have been comfortable for my long shifts. The GogaMax insoles are great; they broke in well and provided excellent support. They are lightweight, which is crucial for me, given my prosthetic leg. Overall, these shoes have been a game changer for my work environment."

"I bought these shoes for my husband for Christmas, and he absolutely loves them. They are very comfortable and perfect for walking. The price was great, and I would highly recommend them!"

"These shoes fit perfectly and are incredibly comfortable! They've instantly become my new favorite shoes! I'll definitely buy again!"

"I took a chance on these since I'm familiar with the brand from their hiking boots, which are great as well. The shoes look very nice, and they are super comfortable with a nice spring. They’re lightweight yet seem to be of high quality. The tread is a bit thin, but since I'll mainly use them for street walking, it should be fine. I'm quite happy so far and feel like I've found a great value."

"I've spent a lot on shoes priced between $125 and $160. Walking is part of my exercise routine, and I've dealt with foot issues for years. After trying on these shoes, I immediately knew they were a great fit for my walking needs. At just $37, it's an absolute steal! They feel fantastic and have that bouncy comfort I love. I'm definitely considering buying a second pair!"

"I've been a fan of New Balance sneakers for years, and when my husband needed new shoes, I encouraged him to try them. He ended up finding them incredibly comfortable—possibly the best pair he's ever worn. They provide excellent support and fit perfectly for daily wear. He loves them, and that makes me happy!"

"I have wide feet and have relied on New Balance for over two decades. These shoes are exceptionally comfortable, offering great cushioning and support. I mainly use them as my daily shoes, and despite not being a runner, I still have my older pairs that are very wearable after many years. They never disappoint!"

"I bought these shoes for my father, who deals with swelling in his feet. He really appreciates the wider fit compared to other New Balance models. They're lightweight and comfortable, and he finds them to be just what he needed!"

"These shoes are incredibly comfortable and fit me perfectly. The ease of slipping them on is a bonus, even if it's not as effortless as I hoped."

"I wore these on my trip to Disney World, and after breaking them in, they turned out to be very comfortable. They handled all the walking like champs!"

"My husband is on his fourth pair of these shoes. He loves how easy they are to wear and the solid fit they provide."

"I’m really thrilled with my Skechers! They’re incredibly comfortable and provide excellent support for my feet. The cushioning is perfect for long walks and daily wear. Plus, they look great and match my casual outfits easily. The fit is true to size and the quality of materials is outstanding. I feel modern and cool wearing them, not like an old man!"

"I love these shoes! The fit and feel are fantastic for everyday walking. However, I did notice that the material inside the back wore down, causing some discomfort. If that issue were resolved, I would definitely buy them again!"

"At first, my husband was hesitant about wearing them since he prefers tie-up laces. But after trying them around the house, he now loves them! He says they are really comfortable and a great shoe for the price."

"I recently got a pair of Rockport Men's Eureka Walking Shoes, and I'm quite pleased. The genuine leather is not only visually appealing but also easy to clean. Comfort-wise, they are excellent thanks to the latex foam footbed that reduces foot fatigue during long walks. The moisture-wicking mesh lining keeps my feet cool and dry, which I appreciate a lot. For someone like me who spends a lot of time on their feet, the impact-absorbing EVA midsole is a major plus, providing great shock absorption. Overall, I'm very satisfied with these shoes!"

"These shoes are simply awesome. They last a long time but do run a bit tight and stiff at first. I've learned to break them in using an old-school method from my Army days. I wear them for an hour, and while they can be uncomfortable, after that, they fit like a good pair of gloves. Once broken in, they are incredibly comfortable. I've had a pair for five years now, and they still look great for the office. It’s a process, but definitely worth it!"

"At first, the fold above the toes pressed on my feet, but after working the leather a bit, I got through the break-in period. I give these shoes five stars for comfort and durability. Just like a baseball mitt, leather needs to break in to your foot. Once they do, they're fantastic!"

"At 73 years old, I find these shoes have a rigid heel counter that makes them easy to put on. I simply slide my toes in and push my heel down, and they fit perfectly! They're now my go-to shoes for everyday wear, and I added better insoles for extra cushioning."

"As a dedicated marathon runner, I prioritize cushioning, and these slip-on shoes exceed my expectations! They provide great value and are just as good as much more expensive options. I'm really impressed!"

"I was initially skeptical but was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable and well-fitting these slip-ons are. They are an excellent price, and I would definitely recommend them!"

"I was really surprised by how well they fit and how comfortable they are. They are so lightweight that I can almost forget I'm wearing shoes. After walking my dogs for a total of 6 miles, they showed little wear and required no breaking in. It felt like walking on air right out of the box, and the arch support was great!"

"Sketchers is the only brand with consistent sizing for me. If you've had Sketchers before, then these run true to size. They are comfy and are perfect for walking, with a medium width that is just right. The arch support is definitely noticeable and welcome!"

"This is my third pair of these shoes. I wear them so much that I end up wearing them out! They are comfortable and I love that they are wide enough for my feet!"
