The Skechers GO WALK Max Cushioning Arch Fit - Paohlo is the strongest all-round walking shoe on this list for the money. At $100 it brings together the parts of Skechers' range most relevant to walkers: a Max Cushioning midsole with HYPER ARC and ultra-lightweight ULTRA FLIGHT foam, and the Arch Fit insole, which Skechers says was developed with 20 years of data and 120,000 unweighted foot scans. The shoe has been granted the APMA Seal of Acceptance, and the insole is removable. The engineered knit upper uses fixed stretch No Tie Fit laces, so you slip it on and the laces never come undone. It is made with 100% vegan materials, has a 2-inch heel and is machine washable. Men's sizes run from 7 to 16. The gaps are in the spec sheet: Skechers does not publish weight or heel-to-toe drop here, and this colorway had no reviews yet.
