Full details
The Skechers GO WALK Flex Waterproof Trainers are designed for adult men who prioritize effortless convenience and all-day comfort during daily walking or light activity. Featuring the signature Hands Free Slip-ins technology, these shoes provide a seamless fit without the need to bend down, while the 100% waterproof construction ensures your feet stay dry in wet conditions. While they offer excellent cushioning and ease of use, the athletic-focused design is best suited for casual walking rather than heavy-duty athletic training.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
While many Skechers are machine washable, the waterproof technology may be affected. It is best to stick to manual surface cleaning.
Can I use these for running?
These are designed for walking and casual daily use. They lack the structural support necessary for high-impact running.
Does the Hands Free feature wear out?
The heel construction is reinforced to maintain its shape over time, provided the shoes are not forced on in a way that collapses the back.
How do I choose the right size?
These fit true to standard UK sizing. If you prefer extra space for thick socks, you may consider sizing up a half-size if available.
Is the insole removable?
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole is designed to be integrated with the shoe for optimal cushioning but may be removed if you require specialized orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping the foot in easily
Ensure the heel area is not obstructed by your sock and that the tongue is centered before stepping in.
Feel damp after walking in heavy rain
Waterproof efficacy can be compromised if the surface is heavily stained or dirty; ensure the upper mesh is clean to maintain water repellency.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no "setup" beyond pulling them on, thanks to the Hands Free Slip-ins design. To ensure longevity, keep the following in mind:
- Cleaning: Wipe the athletic mesh and synthetic upper with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals that might degrade the waterproof coating.
- Drying: If the shoes get heavily saturated, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the synthetic materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using a shoe tree can help maintain the shape of the heel area, preserving the integrity of the Hands Free technology.
- Compatibility: These are standard fit trainers. It is recommended to select your standard UK adult shoe size for the best performance of the internal Heel Pillow.
