FAQs
Are these shoes actually hands-free?
Yes, the Go Walk Now series features specialized heel structures that allow you to slide your foot in without using your hands to hold the back of the shoe.
Can I use these for running?
These are primarily designed for walking and casual activities. They lack the specific stability and impact support needed for long-distance or high-intensity running.
Are they truly vegan?
Yes, all materials used in the construction of this model are synthetic and contain no animal-derived components.
How should I wash them?
Use a gentle, cold-water cycle in your washing machine. We recommend using a mesh laundry bag to protect the shoes.
Can I replace the insoles?
The Air Cooled Goga Mat insole is designed to be integrated with the shoe for best performance. Removing them may alter the intended feel and support.
Troubleshooting
Heel slipping when walking
Ensure the heel tab is pulled up fully during entry. If the shoe remains loose, it may suggest the size is slightly too large for your foot profile.
Insoles feel damp after cleaning
Air dry completely for at least 24 hours in a well-ventilated area. Do not use a tumble dryer as the heat can warp the memory-foam-like material.
Odour buildup
Since the shoes are machine washable, a gentle wash with mild detergent is usually sufficient. Alternatively, use a shoe-specific deodorizing spray between washes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no "break-in" period; simply slide your foot into the heel opening, and the bungee system will provide an immediate, snug fit. For care and maintenance, the shoes are machine washable. It is recommended to place the shoes in a garment bag or pillowcase and wash them on a gentle, cold-water cycle. Always allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to preserve the integrity of the cushioning and the stretch of the upper materials. Ensure your feet match the UK size 8 specification to maximize the benefits of the intended ergonomic design.
