Which is better for all-day walking?

The Skechers. Its Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole gives more cushioning than the LOFT's padded footbed.

Which is cooler in summer?

The LOFT Mesh Low Profile. The mesh upper lets more air through than the Skechers' synthetic duraleather.

Which has more color choices?

The LOFT, with navy, olive and soft sand. The Skechers comes in white and blush pink.

Is the LOFT worth buying if I can't try it on?

Only if you know your LOFT size. It is an online exclusive, so returns are your safety net.

Do either come in wide widths?

No. Both are listed in medium width only.

The Skechers' synthetic upper should hold up better against scuffs. Mesh tends to snag and show wear sooner.
