FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not intended for high-impact sports or athletic performance due to their platform sole and construction.

How do I clean the suede material?

Gently brush off dry dirt with a suede brush. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Avoid water exposure on suede parts.

What makes the insole comfortable?

The trainers feature Skechers' Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole, which provides breathable cushioning and molds to the shape of your foot for personalized comfort.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these trainers in wet weather, especially as the suede upper can be damaged by excessive moisture.

What is the benefit of the platform sole?

The platform gum midsole provides a fashionable, elevated look and adds to the shoe's cushioning and shock absorption for comfortable wear.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer and consider your usual UK shoe size. The lace-up design allows for some adjustability.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a dedicated suede brush to lift dirt. For stains, consult a suede cleaning guide and use appropriate products sparingly. Allow to air dry.

Laces feel worn or damaged.

Replace laces with standard shoe laces of similar length and material. Many retailers offer replacement laces.

Insole feels less cushioned over time.

While the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® is durable, excessive wear can reduce its effectiveness. Consider inserting compatible aftermarket insoles if significant cushioning loss occurs.

Shoes feel stiff initially.

Wear the trainers around the house for short periods to allow them to break in. The natural materials and memory foam will adapt to your foot shape over time.
