Product Information

Full details

The Skechers Academy HI - Elevated Essence trainers in green are designed for adult women seeking a blend of court-inspired style and all-day comfort. Their key benefit lies in the combination of a genuine pigskin suede upper with a cushioned insole, offering both a premium look and supportive feel. A potential caveat is that as trainers, they are best suited for casual wear and light activities, rather than high-impact sports. This model features a lace-up design, a platform gum midsole, and Skechers' signature Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole.

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

These trainers are designed primarily for style and casual comfort. While they offer good cushioning for walking and everyday activities, they are not intended for high-impact sports or rigorous athletic training.

How do I clean the pigskin suede upper?

To clean the suede, use a soft suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always test cleaning products on a small, hidden area first and allow the shoes to air dry completely.

What makes the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole special?

The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole provides enhanced cushioning and breathability. It is designed to contour to your foot for personalized comfort and helps to wick away moisture, keeping your feet cooler.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the suede, and compromise the shoe's structure and cushioning.

What is the warranty on Skechers trainers?

Skechers typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the official Skechers website or your purchase receipt for specific warranty details and duration.

What other colors are available for the Academy HI - Elevated Essence series?

The Academy HI - Elevated Essence series is available in various color combinations, including Red/Blue and Navy Blue/Pink, among others.

How do I ensure the right fit?

It is recommended to try on the shoes, ideally later in the day when feet may be slightly swollen. Ensure there is a comfortable amount of space in the toe box and that the heel does not slip. Consult Skechers' sizing guide for accurate measurements.

Troubleshooting

Suede material looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.

Insole feels less cushioned over time

Ensure the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is clean and dry. Slight wear is normal, but if significant discomfort arises, consider inserting an after-market insole designed for similar cushioning.

Shoes feel tight after wearing

Loosen the laces to provide more room. If the shoes consistently feel too tight, they may be the wrong size. Consider trying a half-size larger or a different width if available.

Gum midsole shows scuff marks

Gently clean the gum midsole with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. A magic eraser can sometimes be effective for scuffs, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Care:

  1. Suede Care: Use a soft brush to gently remove dry dirt from the suede upper. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Avoid soaking the suede.
  2. Midsole and Outsole: Wipe the gum midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. Mild soap can be used for tougher dirt, but rinse thoroughly and dry.
  3. Insole: The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure it is completely dry before wearing.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to maintain their shape and material integrity.
