Why We Love This Deal
Canvas slip-on shoes have been the go-to for decades, but a certain pseudo-moc-toe take on the style has become a staple lately, with brands like Hey Dude leading the charge. Skechers, like many others, has its own take on this trendy style, and you can now get one of them for under $40.
The $55 Skechers Melson Volgo Slip-on Shoes are now just $38 at Walmart. The black and tan shoes are both fully in stock and on sale for this price, but the navy and brown slip-ons have already sold out. This shoe has been a huge hit among Walmart shoppers, who have given it over 1,400 5-star ratings for its comfortable memory foam insert, refined casual looks, and easy-on-easy-off design.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Upper: Woven canvas
- Insole: Air-cooled Memory Foam with Goga Mat arch support
- Outsole: Flexible rubber
- Closure: Slip-on with dual elastic panels
- Best For: Beach, everyday wear, warm weather
The Melson Volgos are made with a woven canvas upper, stretch lacing with dual elastic panels for easy on and off, and a moc-toe profile giving it that boat shoe look. The Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole and Goga Mat arch support are the real highlights, though, giving the shoes all-day comfort that you really don’t see in most canvas slip-ons at this price.
Similar boat shoe-inspired silhouettes, like Reef’s Deckhand 3s, or even Hey Dude's Wally, retail for anywhere from $40 to $75, and usually don’t have memory foam cushioning. That means you’re getting a pair of canvas shoes for less than the usual asking price, with support that lets you wear them all day.
What Shoppers Are Saying
One reviewer, who’s on their third pair of these Skechers, wrote, “They are very comfortable, and I can just about wear them anywhere.” A second shopper wrote, “I have feet that are hard to fit (wider on one foot). These shoes fit like a glove.”
That memory foam support means you can comfortably wear these all day: “I wear them to work and I'm on my feet 8 hours a day.” Another reviewer said, “This is my fourth pair. I can't even wear sports shoes anymore. They just aren't as comfortable as my Sketchers.”
You can get the Skechers Melson Volgo Slip-on Shoes for $38 at Walmart, and considering that two of the four colorways are already out of stock, it’s safe to say these are going fast, and now’s the time to grab a pair.
