FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They are not recommended for high-impact running due to their construction and cushioning.
How do I wash these trainers?
You can machine wash them in cold water on a gentle cycle, preferably in a laundry bag. Always air dry them completely away from heat and do not tumble dry.
What does 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' mean?
It means you can slide your foot into the trainer without needing to bend down or use your hands to pull them on. The design, including the Heel Pillow®, helps your foot slip in easily.
Are these trainers genuinely vegan?
Yes, the Skechers BOBS Sport™ B Flex - Flex Lucy trainers are made with vegan materials, meaning they do not contain any animal products.
How long does the Skechers Memory Foam™ insole last?
The durability of the Memory Foam™ insole can vary with use. For optimal comfort and support, it is generally recommended to replace athletic shoes after 300-500 miles of use or when signs of wear, like reduced cushioning, appear.
What is the benefit of the Heel Pillow®?
The Heel Pillow® provides extra cushioning and a secure fit around the heel, preventing slippage and enhancing overall comfort and stability when wearing the shoes.
Can I replace the insoles if needed?
While the insoles are integrated for comfort, for general replacement needs, you can typically find aftermarket insoles that fit standard trainer sizes. However, consider the specific design of the BOBS Sport™ B Flex to ensure a proper fit.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the heel is fully pushed back into the Heel Pillow®. Loosen the fixed stretch laces slightly by gently pulling them away from the eyelets if needed, then re-secure. Try with socks on or off depending on your preference.
Trainers smell after wear
Allow trainers to air out between wears. Ensure they are completely dry after washing. Sprinkle baking soda inside the trainers overnight to absorb odors, then shake out before wearing.
Color transfer or fading after washing
Always wash with cold water on a gentle cycle. Ensure dark colors are washed separately. If fading occurs, it may be a characteristic of the material; consider spot cleaning for minor marks instead of full machine washing.
Insole feels uncomfortable
The Skechers Memory Foam™ insole is designed to mold to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe size is appropriate or consult with a shoe fit specialist.
