Skechers Go Walk versus Crocs Busy Day Skimmer

Just wondering if anyone has tried the Crocs Busy Day Skimmer - would you recommend them? And how do they compare to Skechers Go Walk? The Crocs look nicer (IMO) and are cheaper ......

Skechers

OR

Crocs

I prefer the Go walks they feel more breathable, and very light to walk in. The crocs were great to try on but I didn't like how I felt walking in them. If that makes sense.

Ah, I was really hoping it would be the other way round !!!

I've got a pair of Skechers Go Walk and they are very ugly but really comfy, lightweight and cool (no hot, sweaty feet) to wear.

I haven't tried the Crocs ones so can't really compare.

I walk to work and pretty much everywhere so got myself a plain black pair of go walk. They are, to me, a bloody ugly shoe. However, they are floaty light, I can squish them in my bag and could walk all day in them - sooo comfy. But god I wish they were just a bit more cool.

I think Skechers 'On the go' look nicer.. like loafers.
I succumbed to a pair and OMG they are the best things I have ever had on my feet!

I can't comment on the Crocs, which IMO are hideous, but Sketchers Go Walk are a revelation. They are the most astonishingly comfortable shoe I have ever worn. Wearing them is like walking on cushions. They are amazingly light and are more comfortable than my slippers. They are large for their size and I needed a size smaller than my usual size for a perfect fit.

I too am a fan of go walks. They are the comfiest shoe ever

CalamityKate1 · 04/06/2014 14:42

Agree. There isn't a superlative that's superlative enough to describe how comfy these shoes are!

Bambambini · 04/06/2014 16:37

Just bought a pair of sketchers go walk and love, love, love them. They look great for the summer too. I'm converted!

Returning to this thread as I wore my Go Walks such a lot on holiday. They are the Most Comfortable Footwear ever. Great for clambering over rocks, walking up steep hills, sightseeing etc.

I'm thinking of buying a pair in another colour.

MonterayJack · 04/06/2014 18:20

Totally agree the Go Walks are heaven to walk in but they make my feet absolutely stink (and I usually have very unsmelly feet). They're not at all breathable. I have to throw mine in the washing machine every few days.

Away, sorry where is that 15% code for?
