FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The GO WALK 8 Nova Trainers are primarily designed for walking and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning and support, they may not provide the specialized features or durability required for intense running activities.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, you can wear these trainers with or without socks. The Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole is designed for comfort against the skin, but wearing thin socks is also an option depending on your preference and the weather.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Refer to the Skechers sizing chart for accurate measurements. The Stretch Fit® upper offers some flexibility, but a proper initial fit is crucial for comfort and support.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The knit upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, they are not intended for use in heavy rain or wet conditions.
What is the main advantage of the GO WALK 8 series?
The GO WALK 8 series is known for its advanced cushioning, lightweight construction, and focus on comfort for extended walking. The Nova model specifically incorporates the Hands Free Slip-ins® technology for added convenience.
Are there other color options available?
Yes, the Skechers GO WALK 8 Nova Trainers are available in a variety of colorways. Please check the Skechers website or retailer for the most current selection.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
The Stretch Fit® upper is designed to adapt. If initially snug, wear them for short periods to allow them to mold to your foot. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is correct or if a different Skechers model might offer a more suitable fit.
Reduced cushioning or support over time
The insoles and cushioning are designed for durability. However, with extensive use, some natural compression may occur. Ensure the shoes are cleaned according to care instructions, as dirt can sometimes affect performance. If significant degradation occurs, it may be time to consider replacement.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the heel collar is fully open and you are sliding your foot in smoothly. The Heel Pillow® and Hands Free Slip-ins® design should facilitate easy entry. If there's resistance, check that no debris is inside the shoe and that the shoe is the correct size.
