FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running or high-impact sports?
The Skechers GO WALK Flex - Carla sneakers are designed primarily for walking and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specific support or stability required for high-impact activities like running or cross-training.
How do the Hands-Free Slip-ins® work?
The shoes feature a specialized heel design that allows you to step in without needing to bend or use your hands. The Heel Pillow™ helps hold your foot securely in place once you've slipped them on.
Can I remove the insoles?
The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insoles are generally integrated for optimal comfort and support within the shoe's design. While some users may be able to carefully remove them, it is not recommended as it may affect the shoe's fit and cushioning.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from an athletic mesh and hotmelt material, providing breathability and a lightweight feel.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof. They are designed with breathable mesh, making them suitable for dry conditions and light moisture, but not for heavy rain or wet environments.
What does 'Flex Pillars™' refer to?
Flex Pillars™ are integrated into the lightweight ULTRA GO® midsole. They provide enhanced support and stability for a more responsive and comfortable walking experience.
Is this model available in other colors and sizes?
Yes, Skechers GO WALK Flex models are typically available in a range of colors and sizes. Please check the product listings for specific availability.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose/tight due to fixed laces
While the laces are fixed, the Heel Pillow™ and overall fit are designed to be secure. If a minor adjustment is needed, ensure your foot is fully inserted. For significant fit issues, consider alternative lacing methods or a different Skechers model with adjustable laces.
Slight odor after wear
Due to the breathable materials and cushioned insoles, odors can sometimes develop. Machine wash the shoes according to the care instructions. You can also use odor-absorbing inserts or baking soda inside the shoes when not in use.
Reduced cushioning over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® and ULTRA GO® midsole are designed for durability, but cushioning may naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if comfort is significantly diminished after prolonged wear.
