If you want durable, don't go for Skechers.

Skechers are very comfortable but not durable at all. Life expectancy is around 2 years max. Buy only if you value comfort above all else.

Hush Puppies are comfortable and reasonably durable. 3 - 5 years life expectancy if you don't abuse it (meaning you take some care of it).

Obermain (see Hush Puppies above).

Asics (need to look for those that are suitable for office) are almost as comfortable as Skechers and also durable. Can withstand abuse and last > 3 years easily. But it is more expensive than the others above.

Camel very durable can last 10 years or more. Not as comfortable as all the above and design can be quite rugged type and some may consider not so suitable for office. Fitment can be an issue so try out properly. Expensive but lasts very long. Comfort so-so.

Absolutely avoid these brands if possible as they are really poor quality (based on my personal experience). Cheap but will break-down within 6 months if used frequently and you will end up spending more in the long run to replace them:

Hello good people of \k,
Recently my cheap kasut office T***z koyak already so I'm thinking of replacing it. I'm looking for something comfortable to wear, can last long and probably dark in colour. Any suggestions? It doesn't have to tie to the formal office wear.

I'm thinking of north face shoes tapi macam tak ngam pakai kasut hiking to office.

if u ask me, skechers. but expensive la. 200-300. and can tahan probably 1-2 years wear everyday. i long time skechers supporter i myself confirm this.

i got scoliosis on my spine, will get real pain n sore after long stand or walk.

but skerchers can ease that nicely.

adidas ultraboost. rm800 but worth it. i wear to office everyday, walk 5000+ steps daily on public transport.

Yes, doc martens are very durable. But they are also uncomfortable, slippery and ugly. Had them in the '90s and the style is still the same. Maybe more suitable for cowboys.

Skechers for daily use are good? I recently bought my wife a pair of go walk and she said it's quite slippery. I used to have a Skechers running shoes but that was long time ago.

As long the price can justify the shoe's durability, I don't mind much on the price.

can anyone recommend entry level running shoes (gym treadmill mostly ~5km)

nike, adidas, asics?

now using cheap bata/power je, kaki sakit

Running shoes can try Asics. Cumulus or even the Novablast.
Good for beginners.

these seems like RM500+, got cheaper models like RM200-300?
