FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for walking and general comfort. While they can handle light jogging, they do not offer the specialized support or structure recommended for serious running.
How do the Hands Free Slip-ins® work?
The design incorporates a specialized heel structure that allows you to slide your foot in easily without needing to touch the shoe or bend down, thanks to the Heel Pillow® and a unique sole shape.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, you can wear these trainers with thin socks or sock liners for added comfort. However, the design is also comfortable for wearing barefoot due to the soft interior lining.
What is the benefit of Flex Pillars™?
The Flex Pillars™ are integrated into the outsole to provide enhanced stability and a smoother transition from heel to toe during your stride, contributing to overall comfort and support.
How often should I wash these trainers?
Machine wash them only when necessary to maintain their appearance and material integrity. Frequent washing can potentially shorten their lifespan. Ensure they are completely dry before wearing.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the GO WALK Flex series is available in various color combinations. Please check the product listing for available options.
What is the warranty on these shoes?
Specific warranty information may vary by retailer. It is recommended to check the product's original packaging or the retailer's website for details on the warranty period and coverage.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
The fixed laces offer a standard fit. If they feel consistently too tight or loose, they may not be the best fit for your foot shape. Consider trying a different width or model if available.
Reduced cushioning over time
The insoles are designed for comfort and support. If cushioning feels diminished, consider replacing the insoles with a new pair of Skechers insoles or compatible aftermarket ones.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure your heel is correctly positioned. The Heel Pillow® should cradle your heel. If you have very high arches, you might need to slightly widen the opening with your hands the first few times.
Machine washing not cleaning effectively
Ensure shoes are placed in a mesh bag. Use a mild detergent and a cold, gentle cycle. For heavily soiled shoes, pre-treat stains with a gentle cleaner before washing.
