FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These sneakers are designed for comfort during walking and casual wear, not for high-impact activities like running. The Arch Fit® system is optimized for support during steady movement.
Can I machine wash these sneakers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction. Spot clean the upper and hand wash the insoles separately, then air dry.
How do I know if the Arch Fit® insole is right for my feet?
The Arch Fit® insole is designed to provide support for most foot types. If you experience discomfort, it's advisable to consult a podiatrist or consider alternative Skechers models.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the canvas upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. They are not designed for use in heavy rain or snow.
What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?
It means the American Podiatric Medical Association has found the footwear to be beneficial for foot health and promoting proper foot function.
Can I replace the Arch Fit® insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the Arch Fit® insole is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics or preferred insoles for personalized support.
What is the Heel Pillow® feature?
The Heel Pillow® is a soft, plush cushioning system designed to cradle your heel securely, providing added comfort and preventing slippage.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Allow for a break-in period of a few wears. Wear them with thin socks at first. If still uncomfortable, consider if a different size is needed.
Insole shifts during wear
Ensure the insole is seated correctly. If the issue persists, a very small amount of double-sided tape on the bottom of the insole might help secure it, or consider using custom orthotics.
Canvas upper looks dirty
Follow the spot cleaning instructions using mild soap and water. For stubborn stains, a specialized canvas cleaner might be effective, but always test in an inconspicuous area first.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure your heel is positioned correctly within the Heel Pillow® area. You may need to slightly widen the opening with your hands the first few times. Wearing thinner socks can also help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These sneakers require no specific setup. They are ready to wear straight out of the box. If you wish to use your own orthotics, the Skechers Arch Fit® insoles can be removed by gently pulling them out from the shoe.
Compatibility:
- Foot Type: Designed to accommodate various foot shapes, with particular benefits for those needing arch support. The removable insole allows for compatibility with custom orthotics.
- Activity Level: Best suited for low to moderate impact activities like walking, casual wear, and standing for extended periods.
- Weather: Suitable for dry to mildly damp conditions. Not recommended for heavy rain or snow.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Spot clean the canvas upper with a mild soap and water solution. Use a soft brush or cloth to gently scrub away dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Insole: The removable Arch Fit® insole can be hand-washed with mild soap and cool water. Allow it to air dry completely before reinserting it into the shoe. Do not machine wash or dry.
- Drying: Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or intense sunlight, which can damage the materials. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect them from dust and damage.
