    Those look like Doc Knockoffs. :mrgreen:

    Seriously though. Do they have something similar to the Air-Wear sole? Good arch support? They are nice enough to catch my eye.

    I have always liked Docs not for the looks, but specifically for what they did for my feet... And their construction. On a wet greasy kitchen floor, I never once lost my footing with Docs... Which says a lot. How do these hold up or do you know?

    Sketchers have lousy arch support and bad stitching in my experience. You get what you pay for.

    I wear my duty boots - 8" Danner Strikers. Although I'm contemplating replacing them with Danner Acadias. You might look at Magnum duty boots - similar style, but a little less expensive.

    I can kinda see the arch support, however thats not an issue for me, and as far as the stitching, I've been sporting mine for about two years. They have been everywhere from the office, to a ditch, to the mosh pit, and nothing wrong with them that a polishing can't fix. Just my exsperiance, mind you.

    thanx...Ded N. Buried
