I have not. I know Sketchers work for my feet and I end up with minimal blisters, so I stick with those.

Speaking of blisters, this stuff is the bomb. If you get a blister, you apply it and the blister goes buh bye. What I do is drain the blister the night before with a needle (sterile, I put alcohol on it or use something to clean it) and then the next morning, I put it on before going out. Blister doesn't come back. I used it in California when I was walking every day 20k+ steps for two trouble blister spots. Blisters never came back.

Oh, and Sketchers also sells arch support ankle boots. I found them at DSW, but they appear to only have 7.5s now. Sketchers probably has them or similar ones on their website.

Most boots aren't comfortable for me because I have a high instep. I have some ankle boots, but they're not good for walking long distances, and my most comfortable pair are suede, which has not been working for when there's been snow on the ground.

Those Sketches ones...OMG. They are almost as comfortable as my sneakers. 10/10.

I once bought a pair of no slip Sketchers for older folks. I determined that Sketchers had a secret agenda to kill all of us people of a certain age. It took me awhile to figure out what was happening. When I could walk better I used to mall walk every morning. I didn't immediately connect Sketchers to the fact that after never falling down, while just walking, in my life, I fell face first to the floor twice within a month in the mall. Later that winter I was in WDW and Universal. I fell once in the queue for Soarin in WDW and once while just walking between attractions at Universal three days later.

I noticed on my last fall that as I took a step forward my foot started scuffing the ground. However, instead of scuffing, my foot stopped dead and I fell forward to the ground all four of those times. I finally connected the dots and figured out that they did what they advertised they were absolutely non-slip shoes. I stopped wearing them, that was probably 8 years ago and I haven't fallen since then or even close to falling. I'll give them credit, but there are times when slipping a little is beneficial.

I do have a pair of Skecher slip on and I do love them! I think my favorite part is they can be thrown in the washer when needed.
