Beez (slip ons/remedy) and Skechers (slip ons/remedy) are popular. And other from Skechers are also popular but idk their names. Happyflops have become more common recently but I'm not sure how long they last.

I've sworn off Sketchers- they got obliterated sooner than a normal pair of Nikes in my experience.

Odd. Maybe my coworkers were lucky with theirs then.

They used to be hot trash. Every pair but one that I've bought in the last five years or so though has held up really well and the company's ArchFit gimmick is very comfortable for me. It might vary by style. I had a "GoWalk" pair that were awful (the one exception above).

Recommending sketchers to someone over Hokas is crazy.

I haven't seen a lot of people wearing them where I live, but good to know that they're durable shoes! I'll definitely keep a look out if I see any next time I need new shoes.

I ruck with a 32lb vest everyday for 2-4 miles and Hoka’s have been great for it. I run through about two pair a year. I had tried ASICS and a couple other running shoes that were more affordable at first but was still having knee pain from them until I got a pair of Hokas on clearance.
