FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

While the materials are durable, it is best to spot clean them with a damp cloth to preserve the memory foam and structural adhesives.

Is the Skechers Flex Appeal 5.0 suitable for wide feet?

The engineered mesh upper is quite flexible and provides a forgiving fit, though they are standard width.

Can I use these for running?

These are designed primarily for walking, fitness training, and casual use, rather than high-mileage long-distance running.

Are these trainers vegan?

Yes, the New Thrive series is made with 100% vegan materials.

Does the insole come out?

Yes, the Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole is generally removable for cleaning or replacing.

Are these true to size?

Most users find that Skechers trainers fit true to standard UK sizes.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

Double knot the laces or ensure they are pulled evenly to maintain balanced tension.

Insole feels less cushioned over time

Remove the insole periodically to let it air out, or replace with a generic orthotic if necessary.

Stains on the mesh upper

Use a soft brush and mild soapy water to spot clean, then allow to air dry completely.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and breathable design
  • Excellent shock absorption for walking
  • Comfortable memory foam cushioning
  • Flexible sole promotes natural foot motion
  • Vegan-friendly materials

Cons

  • Lace-up closure takes more time than slip-ons
  • Not intended for high-impact professional athletics
  • Mesh material may require extra care in wet conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are lace-up trainers, ensure you adjust the laces to a snug but comfortable tension to secure the heel without putting pressure on the top of your foot. Regarding care, the synthetic mesh materials are durable but should be kept away from harsh chemicals. If your shoes become dirty, gently wipe the mesh with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid putting them through heavy-duty wash cycles or the dryer, as heat can degrade the integrity of the memory foam insole and the adhesive on the outsole. Air drying in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight is the recommended method to maintain the shoe's shape and material quality.
