Athletic Works Core Jogger 2.0 vs Skechers Geno Slip-On Sneaker

The Skechers Geno is the better shoe for most people. It has a seamless mesh upper, stretch laces, an Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole and a lightweight shock-absorbing midsole, and it comes in wide widths. The Athletic Works Core Jogger 2.0 is a lace-up with a knit upper, memory foam footbed and EVA midsole and outsole with TPR pods, but it is sold in medium width only. Owners rate the Skechers higher (4.6 from 203 ratings versus 4.3 from 485), and the slip-on build suits anyone who wants to avoid tying laces.

• Choose the Athletic Works Core Jogger 2.0 if you want a lace-up walking shoe you can tighten for a locked-in fit and you have a medium-width foot.
• Choose the Skechers Geno if you want a slip-on with stretch laces, a wide-width option and a lighter, more cushioned ride.
