FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
While some Skechers models are machine washable, it is recommended to spot clean these trainers to preserve the integrity of the memory foam and structural mesh.
Can I use these for running?
These trainers are optimized for walking and daily casual use; they are not designed for the lateral movement or impact absorption required for running.
How do I determine if the size is right?
There should be about a half-inch of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe, and the heel should feel snug against the Heel Pillow.
Does the mesh upper provide any water resistance?
No, the engineered mesh is designed for breathability and is not water-resistant or waterproof.
Are these suitable for wider feet?
The flexible mesh upper provides some natural give, but as a slip-on model without laces, they are generally intended for standard-width foot profiles.
Troubleshooting
Heel slippage while walking
Ensure the Heel Pillow is properly aligned with your heel; if slippage persists, consider wearing thicker socks to increase the volume of the foot inside the shoe.
Insole feels too soft or loose
Check that the insole is seated flat at the base of the shoe. If it has shifted, remove it and re-insert it, pressing firmly into the corners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are slip-on trainers, there is no technical setup required. To ensure the longest lifespan for your Skechers GO WALK Flex, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not submerge in water unless specifically indicated otherwise.
- Drying: Air dry in a cool, shaded area. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can degrade the memory foam and adhesives.
- Compatibility: The sizing follows standard UK adult foot sizing. For those using custom orthotics, the internal insole may be removable, though it is designed to be the primary comfort layer.
