FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These are designed as walking shoes and trainers for casual wear. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specific support and features required for rigorous running.

How do I know if the UK 8.5 size is right for me?

The DLux Walker features a Relaxed Fit design, offering more room. If you typically wear a UK 8.5 and have a standard to slightly wider foot, this size should be comfortable. Consider trying them on if possible, or check Skechers' sizing chart for detailed measurements.

Can I wear these in the rain?

The shoes are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, they are best avoided in heavy rain. The engineered mesh and leather materials are not designed for prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

How often should I wash these shoes?

It depends on usage. Wash them when they appear dirty or if they develop an odor. Avoid frequent machine washing to prolong the shoe's lifespan; spot cleaning with a damp cloth is often sufficient for light dirt.

What is the primary benefit of the Air-Cooled Memory Foam?

The Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole provides enhanced cushioning and breathability, adapting to your foot's shape for personalized comfort and helping to keep your feet cooler.

What does 'Relaxed Fit' mean for these shoes?

Relaxed Fit means the shoes offer a more spacious feel in the toe box and forefoot compared to a standard fit, contributing to overall comfort, especially for longer periods of wear or for those with slightly wider feet.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially

Allow for a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. The Relaxed Fit design and Memory Foam should adapt to your foot.

Slight odor after wear

Remove insoles and air them out separately. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or baking soda overnight inside the shoes. Ensure thorough drying after washing.

Traction feels insufficient on wet surfaces

Be cautious when walking on very wet or slippery surfaces, as the 'non-slip' feature may have limitations. Consider alternative footwear for extremely slick conditions.

Mesh material shows wear

Avoid abrasive activities. If washing, ensure it's on a gentle cycle. For minor scuffs, a soft brush can help. Do not use harsh scrubbing tools.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning for all-day comfort.
  • Machine washable for easy cleaning.
  • Spacious fit accommodates wider feet.
  • Durable construction suitable for regular walking.
  • Versatile black colorway matches many outfits.

Cons

  • Non-slip feature might not be sufficient for extremely slick surfaces.
  • May require a break-in period for optimal comfort.
  • Leather upper requires occasional conditioning.
  • Engineered mesh may not be waterproof.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no special setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size (UK 8.5 in this case) for optimal fit.

Compatibility: Designed for adult women, these trainers are suitable for casual wear and light athletic activities. They are compatible with most casual outfits and are intended for use on dry to moderately wet surfaces.

Care Instructions:

  1. Machine Washable: Place the shoes in a washing machine bag or pillowcase. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Air dry completely; do not use a machine dryer.
  2. Leather Care: For the leather portions, wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. Consider using a leather conditioner periodically to maintain the material's suppleness and prevent cracking.
  3. Insole Care: The Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole can be removed for separate hand washing with mild soap and water. Ensure it is thoroughly dried before reinserting.
  4. Drying: Always air dry shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight to prevent damage to materials.
