Armadillo Chef Shoes for Men - Slip Resistant, Lightweight & Waterproof Zapatos de Chef for Women, Ideal Work Shoes for Kitchens

For context I work a restaurant/catering job as a server,busser,bartender, and hostess doing 9-15hr shiftsI love these shoes. I didn’t want to pay 200 dollars for a pair of sneakers to get trashed and one of the line chefs recommended these to me. They’re super easy to spray off if they get dirty and they keep my feet from getting too painful throughout the day. They’re probably best for stationary jobs like working the line, expo, bartending, etc since they don’t have ankle support, but they’re super cushy and the best shoe I’ve found that doesn’t break the bank. I realize that these are the dupes but I’ve tried on a coworkers real ones and they’re pretty much the same. Real ones are a little tougher material (more heavy duty) and these are a spongier foam. Would absolutely recommend these, they’re fully slip resistant (although they can get a little squeaky). My only cons are that don’t have ankle support and that they run a little big, but neither of those outweigh how overall comfortable they are.

These are so comfortable. Great for all day standing. You might want to wear thicker socks because the shoe fits loosely in the toe box.

I'm not impressed, in the ad they seem to be of good quality but in person they look of dubious quality, I used them only one weekend because they looked comfortable, but in the end it gave me athlete's foot because my feet sweated because of the material (plastic foam) of the shoes, and last day started making air noises as I walked in the kitchen (too embarrassing for me lol) they look okay but they are not suitable for me, I'm sorry but it would be very irresponsible on my part to recommend them to my fellow chefs.

As a chef, I work standing up all day. I love the shoe. Very comfy, I can stand all day with out hurting my feet. The only complaint I got is, the shoe is not non skid. I work in the kitchen where there is always a wet spot on the floor. If this shoe is non skid, this is would have been the perfect shoe in the kitchen. I’ve been using it for a week now. But over all, if comfort is your looking for. I would recommend getting a pair. I don’t mind paying a little extra if the company is going to make a non skid version of this .

Comfortable shoe but no arch support so I will not be wearing them for 12 hour shifts. Also the shoe is not breathable so if you normally get sweaty feet this may not be the shoe for you. Sizing seems to be unisex so these are very loose in the heel area. I will keep them for wearing after my shift is over as a type of recovery shoe.

I love how they fit. It took the pressure off my feet my knees and my back. I could tell a difference when I don’t wear them.

Extremely comfortable! I'm a pastry chef and I stand on my feet on hard floors all day. Very happy with these! True to size. So much room for your toes to spread. Not crazy expensive, not heavy and easy to clean. 10/10 for chefs.

I have worn these shoes twice and they are very uncomfortable..intially the fit is awesome but after 4 hours on my feet it was like walking on concrete..
