Dr. Scholl'sMen's Harrington II Slip Resistant Work Oxford

My husband works 45-50 hours/week in the produce department of a grocery store. They are required to have non-slip shoes. Since he is in management, he cannot wear shoes that look like athletic shoes so we have to find business shoes that fit the bill. He wore Rockport for 2 years- until they discontinued his shoe. (That shoe would last almost 6 months, so we were used to spending $120/year on his work shoes. ) When I saw his shoe was discontinued, I started the search for another durable pair- which seems to be a very difficult task these days. I found a $54 pair that looked similar to the Rockports from a department store. They looked nice but that soon faded as they broke down, almost instantly. Adding $15 inserts helped them limp to making almost 3 months of wear. During this time, I was on the search- again- for shoes. About the time I thought it was a losing battle, I came across the Dr. Scholl’s dress shoes. I remember being so excited and saying, “I didn’t know Dr. Scholl’s made non-slip DRESS shoes!!” (Before management, my husband’s favorite pair of shoes were the Dr. Scholl’s non-slip walking shoes.)I ordered 2 pair with with confidence, secure in my trust in the Dr. Scholl’s brand. (And also happy there was a coupon, making them $40/pair. ) I was a bit hesitant about the look of the shoe because my husband is more old-school and leans more to a loafer type shoe and always complained that this look of shoe looked “oafy.” The day the shoes came, he was at work. When he came home for lunch, I showed him the shoes and he immediately kicked off the tragic pair, put on the Dr. Scholl’s, stood up and said, “Wow! These feel awesome!” He has plantar fasciitis that he usually has to use inserts if the arch isn’t good enough. He didn’t need the inserts and went back to work. When he came home, I asked how the shoes felt- he looked down and said, “I haven’t even thought about my feet since having these on so I have to say, ‘Great!’ “ I asked how he thought they looked and he said he actually liked them- that they felt sturdier than the Rockport loafers and this pair didn’t look oafy like others.That was December 24, 2020. I am writing this on May 21, 2021 and he is still wearing the same pair. They do show signs of wear (he’s hard on his shoes: unloading product from the delivery truck, stocking, cleaning, etc.) but a bi-monthly cleaning and polishing brings back the luster. The shoes themselves haven’t broken down yet and have a lot more wear left than the Rockports would have at this point.I was looking at my past orders the other day and there was a $10 off coupon for this pair of Dr. Scholl’s shoes so I ordered another pair. (I don’t want them to be discontinued and not have any.) We now have 2 pair in reserve for him once these finally give out. (I always give the shoes a good looking over and make him try on the new shoes before storing them to ensure everything is good.)We have put a pair of the plantar fasciitis inserts in the shoes recently to keep his arch up. (He broke his femur in high school and that foot is really hard on arches since it rolls in more than it should.)That just reminded me that these shoes DON’T stink!! The crap pair before these and even the Rockports would get the most pungent smell!! I haven’t had to spray or put any powder in these shoes at all- so there’s a huge plus for me!He has worn a size 9, regular (medium) width for over 35 years and these shoes are true to size.I know how important shoes are- not just for your feet but for your back too. A good pair of work shoes is a must and not something to skimp on. Thankfully, Dr. Scholl’s is keeping the bar high with these by making a great pair of shoes that last and offering them at a very reasonable price. From now on, we’re sticking with Dr. Scholl’s!

These shoes are a classic design for work shoes that I started wearing over 50 years ago. It took me forever to find them online because of all the cheesy mesh sneakers being passed of for work shoes these days but when I found these...Oh Yeah.The best part is if you keep them clean, they can also be worn with jeans or Dickie's slacks and they still look good. Appropriate.The design is at least 80 years old and will never go out of style. True classics never do.

The media could not be loaded. I bought a size 11 wide and boy they are very comfortable! I normally wear Skechers but the Skechers oxforda were very narrow and uncomfortable! I can wear the Dr.Scholls all day on my feet with no problem. My only con is that the material can wear down if you polish them too often.

I bought 2 pairs to alternate them at work. It takes about 3-4 days for your feet and the shoes to be compatible, after that it's just compfort.

Very comfortable and great quality. Slip resistant and fit well.

I've always been a 10.5 and these fit perfectly. They are extremely comfortable and definitely slip resistant. I went walking onto a marble floor just out of the rain and watched someone else slip and fall, while these were firmly gripped. The one thing that I should point out is that these things will keep your feet EXTREMELY warm... I'm talking like a heat box. As we're going into Autumn, it's a welcomed feature, but I don't know how well I'm going to like that in the summer! I'll wait to see how durable they are, as longevity is second only to comfort in my list of importance. Will update this review if I eventually buy another pair, but so far I definitely would.UPDATE: After 2-1/2 years I'm still wearing the same pair of shoes. I've got a desk job, and pretty much wear these every day to work and to places on weekends. A couple things to note... I put the gel inserts into the bottoms as the bottoms were getting worn out. Also, I don't unlace them and I use a shoehorn to put them on, so the laces and back have really held up. You'll see from the picture the soles are still attached and not peeling away from each other. There's some wear on the leather that could probably be cleaned up with a shine kit, but it's also worth noting I'm in the Northeast, so these have gone through a lot of Winter saltings and the leather is just fine. If I could give these 6 stars, I would.UPDATE #2: I'm coming up on 4 years with these black shoes, and I'm on my 2nd set of the Dr. Scholl's gel inserts. I bought the shoes in brown also about 1.5 years ago, so the black ones aren't getting as much usage as the first 2-3 years. HOWEVER!!! They're still holding up fine! With the new insoles, they're like new... but still as comfortable as ever. As with all shoes/sneakers I own, I use a metal shoehorn because it's always back by the heel/achilles that fails first on quality shoes. With these, I suspect the first failure will be that thin layer of rubber tread on the soles detaching, but that'll be due to how I take them off (using one shoe/foot to take off the other).Update #3: Almost 6 years later! About a year and a half ago these became my yardwork shoes. I'm pretty active so these got a lot of wear and tear. Today they finally popped! Through mud, woods, climbing all over the house... Tough shoes to lay this long with me!Conclusion: I really can't say enough about the quality and durability of these comfortable shoes. It was money well spent on these.

I wear these for work. I work in IT and I am on my feet a lot. I’ve had these shoes for about a Month now and I can say I’ve had better work shoes. My main gripe is that the bottom of the heel on one of the shoes is already starting to come off the shoe. Granted these aren’t expensive shoes in the first place but I’d expect them to last longer than a month before wear and tear starts to set in. So that said if you want high quality shoes you might want to look elsewhere.These are generally comfortable shoes though. The only change I made was swapping the insoles out for ones that are more comfortable for my feet.

The quality is great. It looks good and does what it says it should. I would even buy another one again.

Estupendos zapatos cómodos, y de buena calidad ļos recomiendo.Lo único malo es que en la foto se ven de color marrón muy bonitos, y me yegaron de color café.

I need very comfortable shoes. I have a corn or something in the center of my left foot. My shoes need to be perfect and soft inside but firm. These shoes are perfect! Can wear them all day and remain active in a business environment.

Es un excelente zapato perfecto para las personas que trabajan todo el día parados super cómodos pues la horma es muy amplia, la suela antiderrapante se puede usar en piso mojado y no resbalarse, se me cansan mucho menos los pies pues trabajo todo el día parado. Muy recomendables.

Well made and comfortable, good quality shoes.

Para hotelería y cocina, el mejor zapato para mantener una imagen presentable, estar de pié todos el turno y seguro. La bota industrial no sirve dentro de una cocina, la combinación de agua con grasa en los pisos lisos las hace inútiles. Solo este tipo de suelas similares a la piel de lagartijas con dibujo pequeño poco profundo funciona.
