Product Information
Full details
The Skechers GO RUN Now trainers are designed for adult women seeking a comfortable and convenient option for running and training. Their key benefit is the 'No Tie Fit' system, offering a secure feel without the hassle of traditional laces, combined with responsive cushioning for an energized workout. A potential consideration is their specific focus on running and training, which might make them less ideal for casual, everyday wear if distinct styles are preferred. Key features include a breathable mesh upper, stretch laces for a personalized fit, ULTRA LIGHT cushioning for shock absorption, and a Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole for enhanced comfort and ventilation.

FAQs
What makes the 'No Tie Fit' system convenient?
The 'No Tie Fit' system uses stretch laces that conform to your foot, providing a secure fit without manual tying. This allows for quick and easy on-and-off, ideal for busy schedules or quick changes during workouts.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
While the ULTRA LIGHT cushioning offers good support, these trainers are best suited for moderate running distances and training. For marathon distances, consider models specifically engineered for long-distance endurance.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
The athletic mesh upper provides breathability but is not waterproof. They are suitable for light or dry conditions. For significant rain, waterproof footwear would be more appropriate.
How do I ensure the best fit with the stretch laces?
The stretch laces adapt to your foot's shape. Ensure your foot is fully inserted. The fit should feel snug but not constricting. The design prioritizes ease of entry and a comfortable hold during activity.
What is the primary advantage of the Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole?
This insole is designed to provide high-rebound cushioning and enhanced breathability. It helps to keep your feet cool and comfortable by promoting airflow and wicking away moisture during exercise.
Can these trainers be used for cross-training activities?
Yes, the combination of cushioning, support, and flexibility makes them suitable for a variety of cross-training activities that involve running, jumping, and lateral movements.
What is the recommended shoe size conversion if I know my US size?
This guide focuses on UK sizing. Please refer to Skechers' official sizing chart for accurate conversion between US, UK, and EU sizing to find your ideal fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight despite 'No Tie Fit'
The stretch laces offer a degree of adaptability. Ensure your foot is fully inserted into the shoe. If consistent issues persist, consider if this particular fit style is optimal for your foot shape. For minor adjustments, try slightly different angles when inserting your foot.
Foot odor or excessive sweating
The Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole is designed for breathability. Ensure the shoes are allowed to air out completely between wears. Use moisture-wicking socks and consider occasional cleaning of the insoles as per care instructions.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time
Cushioning materials naturally compress with use. Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended purpose (running/training) and not for overly demanding activities that could accelerate wear. Clean the shoes regularly to maintain material integrity.
Mesh upper appears dirty or stained
Spot clean the affected area gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. For more stubborn stains, a soft brush can be used carefully. Always rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Care: To maintain the condition of your trainers:
