FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
While many Skechers are, we recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent to preserve the structure of the Arch Fit insole.
Can I replace the insoles with my own orthotics?
Yes, the Arch Fit insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if preferred.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The slip-on design offers flexibility, but the Arch Fit system is best suited for those looking for standard width support.
How often should I replace the insoles?
We recommend inspecting your insoles every 6-12 months, or sooner if you notice a significant decrease in arch support or cushioning.
Are these good for high-impact running?
No, these are designed for walking and casual daily use, not for high-impact athletic activities.
Troubleshooting
Insole feels too firm or intrusive
Wear the shoes for short periods over the first week to allow the material to mold to your specific arch shape.
Slip-on fit feels slightly loose
Ensure you are using the correct UK sizing and consider using a thin liner or no-show sock to improve grip.
Exterior fabric staining
Use a specialized fabric cleaner and a soft-bristle brush, dabbing gently rather than scrubbing the material aggressively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Skechers Arch Fit trainers, avoid machine washing unless the specific tag permits it; instead, use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to spot-clean the exterior. If the insoles become compressed or worn, they can be removed and replaced. For the best fit, ensure you are wearing socks of the appropriate thickness when trying them on, as the arch support is most effective when the foot is correctly aligned within the footbed. Keep the shoes away from extreme heat sources, such as radiators, which may warp the cushioning materials.
