SkechersMen's Blaine Orsen Ankle Boot

These boots are awesome! I was looking for a good slip-on boot that looked tough but was easy to wear, and this pair nailed it. They fit great right out of the box, and honestly feel like I’m wearing tennis shoes—no exaggeration.I usually have foot pain in most shoes after a few hours, but I can wear these all day long with zero discomfort. Stylish, rugged, and insanely comfortable—these are now my go-to boots.Pros:Slip-on convenienceRugged styleFeels like wearing sneakersGreat for all-day wearCons:Honestly, none so far

Nice boots, true to size and made of leather, a little tight on the top of the arch but will loosen after they break in. Very comfortable.

One of my favorite boots, great for work,play, and that occasional night out. Comfort is great, quality is great, fit is great. Highly recommend.

Very nice looking boot. but size is a bit tight. I have 4 pairs of shoes from this maker. All 4 pairs are size 10 and have had a consistent fit. These are a snug fit and you would not be able to wear thick socks in the winter time with these due to this. I would purchase a size up if you plan on wearing winter socks. I will be keeping them for now and hopping they stretch some over time because I love the way they look.

I have a homestead, spent 10 hours day one in these boots, and l'm impressed. I have wide feet, and sketchers for the most part runs wide, so i thought id try these boots out. This shoe was a great fit for me and very comfortable.Safetywise, The boot is puncture resistant. I stepped on several boards with exposed nails, and nothing penetrated. I wouldnt recommend tap dancing on nails sticking straight up, but for the most part, i could feel when i stepped on a nail and nothing broke through. I stepped on at least 10-15 boards with exposed nails while ripping down a rotted chicken coop, and my feet are intact.Construction - These are not steeltoe, but the shoe is sturdy and well made. On traction, I easily climbed ladders and walked on a slanted metal roof and never felt unstable. I did not slip or lose traction while walking.Overall i really like this boot. My feet do not feel tired or sore. I work a 5 acre property and these are definitely in my rotation now for working around the house.

NICE looking boots and fit well! Super happy.BUT... if you have a high arch you're going to struggle getting these on. The struggle is worth it because these are great boots.

They run small. I normally wear a 10.5 in work boots. But these boots are a tight fit. You will need to wear a ultra thin dress socks to be able to slip your foot in. But your able to slip in your foot. The toes feel fine but the top of your foot is tight. Maybe they will brake in. The taps to help you pull the boot on are so small, you can't get a good grip.

These boots are pretty good. I was trying to find something in the style of Blundstones or Redbacks, but cheaper, and these boots basically fit that bill. There are a couple of things that I'm not uber-happy about, though: 1) the way the elastic is set up makes it so that your heel comes up a bit as you walk, and so after wearing them a full day, the back of my heel is raw... 2) I don't know why they stitched those strips of leather over the elastic gore. They look cheesy there. Just let the elastic show! 3) I prefer to have a sole of a different color than the upper (like Dr Martens). The sole of these boots matches the uppers perfectly, so there is no contrast. I just sort of think that makes them not as cool looking as I want them to be...None of these are absolute deal breakers, though, so I'd say these aren't too bad of a buy...EDIT (02/08/2013). I've been wearing these boots all winter (South Bend, Indiana), and I have a few additional comments. 1) they hold up to the weather great. I haven't waterproofed them, but they are pretty water repellent on their own. That's a major plus. 2) About the fit. I've discovered that the fit is greatly improved by wearing thicker-than-normal socks. I bought a few pairs of "boot socks". This prevents the "rubbing" at the back of the heel. 3) These boots look GREAT with dark, boot-cut jeans. The styling has grown on me for this context. They look pretty good with straight-legged dark khakis/chinos (grey, green, brown, black etc.). The key is the boot-cut/straight-leg and the dark color. If you try to wear them with light colored pants and/or with a tapered/relaxed leg, they just look kind of goofy. The cuff of the pant catches on the pull and it looks like you don't know how to put on your pants. The all-black color of the boots really looks bad with light colors (tan khaki's, or light blue jeans). In the right context, however, I now think these boots can look really good, and I'm more happy with my purchase now than I was at first. I've upgraded my revieww from three to four stars!EDIT (06/09/2014). Another year gone, another winter past, and this time, several Arctic Vortexes to boot! These boots held up through all of that. I moved to Pittsburgh, PA, and wore these boots every day this winter. PGH is a great city, but man, do they not take care of their roads and sidewalks! Potholes, loose gravel, ice, salt, ankle-deep puddles! These boots took them all in stride, and kept my feet warm and dry without making me look like a dork or a mountaineering guide. I'm packing up my apartment now, getting ready for a move back down to sunny Phoenix Arizona where I started out two years ago. I picked up these boots, and thought "should I pack these away really deep with all my other winter gear?". Nope. I love these boots so much that I think I'll even wear them in the Arizona "winter"! Even if I have to sweat a little doing it! I'm upgrading my review to four stars!
