Best walking shoes for men: which ones do you recommend?
Only footwear that's buy it for life are leather goodyear welt shoes which can be repaired. If you can handle those then great. But what I believe you're really looking for is a running shoe. Try all the popular brands with their high-end soft sole material. Like Adidas ultra boost material, whatever brooks puts in their Glycerin line of shoes, Nike with their zoomX material. Some budget options would be the Hoka Clifton. Consider 'stack height', consider heel-to-toe-drop and consider toe box width. Those are major factors specific to each individual. For hiking I use trail runners, Hoka speedgoat. For running I've been using brooks glycerin. For walking around town I have a bunch of Adidas ultra boost 1.0s. All of which I bought at massive discounts at a dicks warehouse. Check out dicks warehouse or Sierra trading post to get high quality name brand shit for actually significant sales.

What's everyone's go-to sneaker?
Been wearing Adidas Sambas almost daily for more than 20 years. Also more recently started wearing Adidas Ultraboost for days I'm walking/running more.

What's everyone's go-to sneaker?
I really enjoy Adidas ultra boosts. They're pricey but quite comfortable. After 2 years of daily wear, mine still hold up nicely. FWIW I wear them to work in a lab, not exercise

Walking Shoes Recommendation?
Sketchers are some of the worst walking shoes and wear out the fastest, so I’m surprised they last for you. If you want durability in a walking shoe I’d recommend adidas ultraboost. There’s a few different styles that use the UB sole, but UB is super durable and resilient, and they use Continental rubber for the tread. You generally get several thousand miles from them instead of a few hundred like most walking shoes. They hold up well. Plus adidas puts at least a bit of effort into recycling and being somewhat sustainable, which is better than nothing.

Best wide shoes for heavy folks (8+ hours standing)
I'm about 280 lbs so also pretty hefty. I also have a wide foot. Many folks on here will have better input than I, but i did do some poking around for this issue a while ago. I was wearing service crocs for a long time and I needed a sneaker. I landed on the Adidas Ultraboost line. My first pair was $130, my second pair was a Gore-Tex model that was on sale for $100. Specifically, the heel support is really nice and cushioned, and I wouldn't call the toe box roomy, but it's certainly not tight.

Looking for Shoe recommendations!
I’ve had common projects for 6 years and they look brand new. They’re all leather so once you break them in, they’ll fit really nicely. It’s a flat shoe though in case if you’re looking for ankle support. I don’t really run but I really liked my adidas ultraboosts. My mom still wears my pair from like 6 years ago too.

Best shoes to buy???
Former warehouse worker here. Worked 8-10 hour shifts similarly to you. The most important thing is finding shoes that fit your feet properly. More premium shoe stores are going to be able to tell you what type of feet you have in terms of width and arch. No matter how nice the shoes you buy are, they won’t properly support your feet if they’re too narrow or have too high/low of an arch for your foot shape. From there, New Balance (in general) or Adidas (“boost”lines) both make shoes that are comfortable sneakers yet also provide adequate support for working on your feet all day.
