This is not the original GoWalk Slip On, cheap remake
If you’re looking for that wonderful, knitted, gray, stretchy fabric that fit your foot like a glove and you never wanted to wear anything else? This shoe is not it. I have 4 pairs of original GoWalks that I will wear until they shred. It looks like Skechers tried to bring the original back into production for us. Fail! Cheap, stuff fabric, not stretchy, and the soles of the shoes don’t look the same. The footprint is different. The width at the ball of the foot is narrower, the heel is tight and threatened blisters because the top of the heel grabs your heel tightly and the ribbon edge is not soft. The cushioning buttons on the bottom are smaller and the material of the sole seems like a plastic as opposed to the originals that felt more like rubber. This new sole is very slippery on a wet surface. The insole padding and entire feel of the bottom of the shoe was not the walking on clouds feel of the original GoWalk.
The only thing original about this model is the word “original” printed inside the shoe. I ordered a second color to make sure I’m not overreacting. I had to send both back. I’m so disappointed.
