SAS Navigator Slip-Resistant Comfort Loafer

For many years I was a professional shoe repairman, owning my own footwear and repair store so I know a thing of two about how shoes are made. There are shoes that look good and feel terrible. And there are shoes that feel good but come in last place in the looks department. Then there are those seemingly elusive ones that, like cinderella's slippers, are beautifully made and fit perfectly. These SAS Navigators are the holy grail of shoes, (for me at least). The leather is soft and supple but stiff enough to retain it's shape. The footbed provides a flat, stable platform, (I have narrow feet so that is an important criteria for me). The sole is non-skid and non-marking. It has a lot of grip and the pattern is not prone to picking up debris, which is a very good attribute. The rear collar is soft and comfortable and the leather overall is holding up well so far. In fact, the leather itself should be one of the top selling points as it is thicker and higher quality than I am used to seeing in todays footwear. Even the elastic is top quality material, allowing max stretch to get the shoe on but enabling the elastic to retract fully without getting the dreaded "over-stretched elastic ripple" on top. Personally I subject my shoes to some fairly harsh conditions in my shop. Lots of sawdust, a little glue and some occasional paint overspray. These shoes clean up VERY well. The finish on them is very durable and top notch. The only thing I found a bit lacking was the relatively cheaply made insole. This however appears to be an industry standard with the idea that it can, and usually is, easily replaced with whatever favorite aftermarket insole the wearer might prefer. Caveat: To gain some additional cushion I tried adding a full length insole under the original one but it ate up too much room inside the shoe and raised the heel too high in the heel pocket. I ended up replacing the original insoles with some new ones that provide perfect support for the shape of my feet. Side Note: Because this is a mid-cut elastic gore style, placing a thick orthotic in this shoe would likely be pushing the edge of the envelope as far as fit goes. It's probably best to stick to a shoelace style shoe if orthotics are needed. Overall, this is one of the best made shoes out there. SAS uses quality materials and has employed well tailored craftsmanship in ~ S ~

The best, well made slip resistant shoe available. Shoe, AND slip resistance outlast any others.

I have only used them 1 day because I received them on a Thursday evening and Friday was the end of my workweek but when I worn them on Friday they were comfortable but I rated only 4 stars because I don't know how long they will last because I have bought shoes in the past that even though they fit right they only lasted a few months before needing replaced again and since I have never heard or used this brand before I don't want to give a perfect review

Love love SAS shoes! This is my 4th pair! Normally buy straight from SAS but the price was great! Arrived on time. Box in perfect condition. Authentic SAS shoes. And they feel great. Thank you!

I tried out four SAS Men's shoes. Here is my take. Bout Time Oxford - This one is the widest. The other three fit similarly. This is NOT non-slip. Guardian Lace up Shoes - This one fits tighter than the Bout Time. This comes with a non-slip sole. Navigator Non Slip Loafer - This one fits similar to Guardian, but tighter than the Bout Time. This also comes with a non-slip sole. Time Out Walking Shoe - This one fits similar to Guardian in the toe area, but the quarter is too high and rubs against my ankle.

son muy cómodos y durables para caminar y

Top tier kitchen shoes. Nonslip is perfect. You'll need aftermarket insoles. Birkenstock sells a rig that's just right, the cork insoles they offer piecemeal. You might be bringing your own orthotics so you'd be good in that case. Only shoe I can wear at work that looks decent outside of work.

was not confutable at all and then i got only a part refund

Great
