FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for comfort and casual wear. While they offer good support for walking and light activities, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running and may lack the specialized cushioning and stability required for intense running.
How do I know if I have the right size?
It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with Skechers' size chart. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box and that the heel does not slip. Trying them on, if possible, is the best way to confirm the correct fit.
Can I remove the Arch Fit® insole?
Yes, the Arch Fit® insole is removable, allowing you to clean it separately or replace it with your own custom orthotics if needed.
How often should I machine wash these trainers?
It's best to wash them only when necessary to maintain the integrity of the materials and adhesives. Frequent washing, even on a gentle cycle, can lead to premature wear.
What does 'vegan-friendly' mean for these shoes?
It means that no animal-derived materials or by-products were used in the manufacturing process of these specific shoes.
What is the purpose of the thin metallic heel clip?
The thin metallic heel clip is a design element that adds a touch of style and may provide a minor degree of heel structure and stability.
Do the stretch laces need to be replaced?
The stretch laces are designed to be permanent for the slip-on convenience. They do not require replacement unless they become damaged.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
The bungee laces offer some adjustment. Try pulling the laces through the eyelets to tighten or loosen the fit. If the shoes are fundamentally the wrong size, consider exchanging them for a different size. The removable insole can also be replaced with a thinner or thicker one for minor fit adjustments.
Arch support feels insufficient or uncomfortable
The Arch Fit® insole is designed for podiatrist-certified support. If it feels uncomfortable, ensure the insole is correctly placed. You can also try wearing the shoes for a few days to allow your feet to adjust. If the discomfort persists, consider replacing the insole with a different type that suits your specific foot needs.
Difficulty slipping shoes on
Gently pull the heel tab and loosen the bungee laces to create a wider opening. Ensure your foot is entering the shoe straight. Once on, the bungee system should provide a secure fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Machine Washable: Place trainers in a washing machine, preferably in a mesh laundry bag. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent.
- Air Dry: Do NOT place in the dryer. Allow trainers to air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight. Ensure they are fully dry before wearing to prevent odor and maintain material integrity.
