The women's sneakers feature a geo mesh upper with stretch laces and a memory foam cushioned comfort insole
For those who spend a significant portion of their day on their feet, whether it's enduring a 12-hour shift or simply embarking on a lengthy walk, the importance of comfortable footwear cannot be overstated.
There are numerous brands that boast about their quality and comfort, but finding a pair that meets all requirements can often come with a hefty price tag.
The well-regarded brand Skechers is celebrated for its superior quality footwear and comfort. Now, Amazon customers can snag a pair at a reduced price, as the Skechers Women's Summits Top Player Trainers have been discounted to £49.99 from £59 on Amazon.
The shoe, fashioned in a Black Knit Trim, embodies the brand's core values including comfort, innovation, style, excellent quality and affordability.
These particular trainers feature a geo mesh upper with stretch laces and a memory foam cushioned comfort insole, making them an ideal selection for those who will be standing for extended periods.
The shoe also boasts a lightweight flexible shock-absorbing midsole and reaches ankle length, enhancing both their stylish appearance and comfort. Customers will notice the Skechers logo detail on the side of the shoe, and if they require cleaning after a few wears, this should be done by hand, reports the Express.
If these shoes aren't suitable for everyone, customers might consider the Women's Holcombe Waterproof Low Walking Shoes for £27 from Regatta which are available in Steel Vivacious and offer waterproof, durable and comfortable features.
For those willing to spend a bit more, there's also the Hoka Kaha 2 Low GORE-TEX Women's Walking Shoes for £99.99 from Sports Shoes which are available in various UK sizes, deliver an excellent weight-to-cushion ratio and feature gripping outsoles.
The Skechers have earned an impressive 4.5 out of 5-star rating from more than 62,000 Amazon reviews, though.
One customer commented: "Love these trainers, so comfy, fits perfectly, as a nurse on my feet all day I find them so comfortable, would highly recommend."
Another similar review read: "They are the most comfortable shoes I have purchased as a nurse."
However, some customers held different views and gave the shoes lower ratings. One noted: "Thought it will be more comfortable."
One customer commented: "These are good Sketcher shoes and fit well once on. However ,getting them on takes ages. I wish I had paid more and got the slip fits.

"There is no give in the fixed laces and you have to pull and push and stretch the shoes all at the same time. It's exhausting. I wonder if they will loosen up eventually?"
