Athletic Works Men's Rudy Low-Top Sneakers, Wide Width

I bought one pair for my husband last year when he had surgery. They have a good grip when walking. Easy slip on. A couple weeks later I decided I better buy another pair before they sold out. A year later I bought 2 more pairs and had them shipped to us. He's having his back fused in a couple weeks and I need to know he or we can easily slip them on and he will have good traction as winter is fast approaching here.

If you have wide feet like me, you usually get shoes a half size larger. NOT HERE! Get your TRUE size and select "WIDE" and these will deliver a good fit. The width is spot-on. Walk with them a bit, though, and they form to your feet very nicely. The laces are just elastic cords. You can't slip them on very easily, and the smooth-ish sole has barely acceptable amounts of traction for anything but store floors and flat concrete, so, be careful with slick surfaces, mud, and certain carpets.
