Sketchers are the best running shoes. Light and very comfortable, especially these hiking shoes. I need a men's shoe because my feet are so wide and the women's shoes don't have the extra width I need. I bought a size larger and it fits perfectly. You can't go wrong with these sneakers. I like the wide toe and the mesh, which will be very good in the summer. Feet will not sweat. The price isn't bad either. I would recommend buying them to a friend.
