A pair of trainers, praised by hospital and hospitality workers for their exceptional comfort, have been discounted. Now priced at £39.99, the Skechers Women's Graceful Get Connected Sneaker, usually retailing at £55, has been described as fitting 'like a dream', with many customers likening them to 'walking on a cloud'.

These highly-rated Skechers feature a memory foam footpad and Ultra GO cushioning, ensuring all-day support and comfort. The Ethylene Vinyl Acetate in the lower sole provides responsive, light steps, while the engineered mesh upper ensures optimal breathability - crucial whether you're outdoors or on your feet all day at work.

Available in a range of vibrant colours, from subtle grey and coral to bold navy and hot pink, the quoted £39.99 price specifically refers to the stylish black mesh design with rose gold accents. They cost £55 from the Skechers website. With their attractive designs, these trainers are not just 'the comfiest footwear ever'; they're also stylish and elegant, yet practical enough to serve as work shoes for professionals in settings such as hospitals.

They're easy to slip on, featuring a flexible back and Heel Pillow technology for a secure, snug fit. Given their focus on comfort, it's no surprise that these Skechers have amassed over 54,100 ratings (at the time of writing) on Amazon, with an average of 4.6 stars.

These shoes have been praised for their exceptional comfort, with many reviewers hailing them as 'lifesavers' for individuals who spend long periods on their feet, such as nurses.

One satisfied customer who purchased the shoes at a discounted price on Amazon raved: "These are the most comfortable trainers I have ever owned. They are so light, you can't feel them on your feet and they fit my wide feet brilliantly and are still comfortable after wearing them for any length of time walking, also after a long session in the gym and daily on the treadmill. You won't go wrong with these trainers and really good value for money," reports Gloucestershire Live.

Another reviewer, who found them beneficial for their work as a nurse, testified: "Very good and comfortable for walking the ward all day. The cushioning lasts 6 months to a year working four to five long shifts or full nights a week. Helps with sciatica and knee pain from constant walking on ward."

Some customers have even switched from more premium brands like Nike, stating: "These trainers are so comfortable, I took them on holiday to Croatia and I am so thankful I did. I have tried other popular brand of trainers, including Nike, but sketchers are much better in terms of comfort."

A retired nurse also praised the shoes, saying: "They fitted like a glove-size 5," and added: "I began walking around the garage wearing them- and managed an hour walking-with no sore or rubbed points. I'm a retired nurse- and I was dubious about the claim 'nurse approved'. Well this ex nurse definitely approves them."

Shoppers are drawn to a particular pair of shoes for their machine washable feature, but it's crucial to know they may not be completely water-resistant. One shopper remarked: "Very comfortable but feet get soaked at the first drop of rain. You can feel the breeze through the mesh. Soft like slippers but keep an eye on the weather forecast."

Amazon regulars have mentioned that the sizes of these shoes might not always match expectations, as some found them smaller than anticipated, leading them to return the shoes. Nonetheless, this issue wasn't widespread.

For those in need of robust weather-ready footwear, the Columbia Konos TRS OutDry Hiking Shoe has been singled out as a great choice due to its comfort, support, excellent grip, and waterproof characteristics, with a current sale price of £77 here. In search of the utmost in comfort?

FitFlop's Mesh Running Sports Trainers come highly recommended, though they are priced higher at £150. Those interested in trying the Skechers trainers' comfort can find them available on Amazon here.
