Full details

The Skechers GO WALK Arch Fit 2.0 - Balin trainers are designed for women seeking superior comfort and support for everyday wear and light activities. Their key benefit is the enhanced arch support and lightweight cushioning, ideal for those who spend long hours on their feet. A potential consideration is that the fit may be snug for those with wider feet. These vegan, machine-washable sneakers feature an engineered mesh upper, a removable Arch Fit® insole, ULTRA GO® cushioning, and Comfort Pillar Technology®.

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Skechers GO WALK Arch Fit 2.0 - Balin trainers are designed primarily for walking and everyday comfort. While they offer good support for light activities, they are not optimized for high-impact running and may lack the specific features of dedicated running shoes.

Can I remove the Arch Fit® insole?

Yes, the Arch Fit® insole is designed to be removable. This allows for cleaning or replacement with custom orthotics if needed.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the engineered mesh upper is breathable and not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions, but not for heavy rain or wet environments.

What makes the Comfort Pillar Technology® beneficial?

The Comfort Pillar Technology® consists of supportive pillars in the midsole and outsole that provide enhanced shock absorption and stability, contributing to overall comfort during walking.

How long does the machine washable feature last?

The machine washable feature is a durable aspect of the materials used. To ensure longevity, always follow the recommended cold wash and air dry instructions.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, Skechers offers the GO WALK Arch Fit 2.0 line in various colorways. Please check the product catalog or Skechers website for available options.

Is the sizing standard UK sizing?

Yes, the product information indicates standard UK adult foot sizing. It is recommended to consult a size chart or try them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight

Loosen the laces and ensure they are evenly distributed. If still too tight, consider if they are the correct size for your foot width. The engineered mesh does offer some stretch.

Arch support feels too pronounced

The Arch Fit® insole is removable. You can try wearing the trainers without it or replacing it with a thinner insole if preferred. However, the support is a key feature for many users.

Discoloration after washing

Ensure you are using cold water and a gentle cycle. Avoid washing with heavily colored items. Always air dry away from direct sunlight or heat.

Reduced cushioning over time

The ULTRA GO® cushioning is designed for durability. If significant reduction occurs within the warranty period, contact customer support. For general wear, ensure the shoes are not used for activities exceeding their intended purpose.
