FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
While the materials are durable, it is recommended to hand wash them to preserve the integrity of the memory foam and adhesive.
Are these suitable for long-distance running?
No, these are designed for casual wear, walking, and light gym activities, rather than high-impact long-distance running.
Do they run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, though the memory foam may feel snug initially as it molds to your foot.
Is the material vegan?
Yes, the New Thrive model is constructed with 100% vegan-friendly materials.
Can I use these for outdoor hiking?
They are best suited for paved or indoor surfaces and do not provide the necessary foot protection or tread for rugged hiking trails.
How do I maintain the mesh fabric?
Keep them dry and clean off debris after use to prevent dirt from becoming embedded in the mesh pores.
Troubleshooting
Insole feels less cushioned over time
Remove the insole and allow it to air out for 24 hours, or consider replacing it with a new high-quality insert.
Mesh upper is showing surface dirt
Use a soft-bristled brush or damp cloth with a mild soap solution to gently scrub the affected area, then air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Skechers Flex Appeal 5.0 trainers maintain their shape and comfort, use a shoe horn when putting them on to protect the heel counter. For cleaning, most Skechers mesh trainers can be spot cleaned using a mild detergent and a soft cloth; avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes. If the trainers become wet, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the memory foam from warping. We recommend keeping them away from high-heat drying cycles in machines, as this can degrade the bonding agents and materials.
