Product Information
Full details
The Skechers Arch Fit Garza - Umar trainers are designed for men seeking a professional yet comfortable footwear option that transitions effortlessly between office environments and evening social settings. The primary benefit of this shoe is its laceless design integrated with the patented Arch Fit system, providing superior podiatrist-certified arch support without the need to tie laces. However, users should note that as a leather-upper casual trainer, it may require a brief break-in period to achieve maximum comfort compared to knit or mesh alternatives.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
While some Skechers trainers are machine washable, leather models should generally be cleaned by hand to prevent damaging the natural material.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the Arch Fit insoles are designed to be removable if you need to use your own custom orthotics.
What is the APMA Seal of Acceptance?
The American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) grants this seal to products found to promote good foot health.
Do I need a shoehorn to put them on?
No, the shoes are designed specifically as 'Hands Free' slip-ins, meaning you do not need any tools to put them on.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Relaxed Fit design provides a roomier fit in the toe and forefoot, which is generally more accommodating for wider feet than standard-fit trainers.
Troubleshooting
Heel slipping while walking
Ensure the Heel Pillow is properly positioned and not obstructed by socks. Ensure you are wearing the correct size, as a loose fit will cause the heel to rise.
Leather feels too stiff
Wear the shoes for shorter periods initially to allow the natural leather to flex and soften to your foot's shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Skechers Arch Fit shoes, keep the following tips in mind:
- Initial Fit: Since these feature a Relaxed Fit, ensure you have enough room in the toe box without your heel sliding when walking.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or a dry cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For leather care, use a reputable leather cleaner or conditioner periodically to prevent cracking and maintain the finish.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources like radiators, as prolonged exposure to heat can damage the leather and the cushioning materials.
- Insole Maintenance: If the insoles become compressed over time, they are typically removable and replaceable with other Arch Fit compatible insoles.
