FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed with Max Cushioning® for comfort and support during walking and light training activities. For dedicated running, especially long distances or high speeds, a specialized running shoe would be more appropriate.
How do I clean the engineered knit upper?
Gently wipe the knit upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Always air dry.
What is the benefit of the Glide-Step® design?
The Glide-Step® geometric design is engineered to provide a smooth transition from heel strike to toe-off, promoting a more efficient and comfortable walking or training stride.
Can I remove the Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole?
Yes, the Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole is typically removable, allowing for easier cleaning or the option to insert custom orthotics if needed.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The engineered knit upper is breathable and water-resistant to a degree, but these trainers are not fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly wet conditions.
What is the purpose of the Heel Pillow®?
The Heel Pillow® is a comfort pillow design within the heel counter that ensures a secure, snug, and comfortable fit by gently cradling the heel.
How does the Hands Free Slip-ins® feature work?
The design incorporates a specific heel structure and padding that allows you to easily slide your foot into the shoe without needing to bend down or use your hands.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping shoe on initially
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is fully expanded. You may need to slightly loosen the laces and use the heel tab to pull the shoe on until the fit becomes more familiar.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The ULTRA GO® cushioning may compress slightly with heavy use. Ensure insoles are clean and dry, and consider using the trainers for their intended purpose (walking, light training) rather than high-impact activities.
Slipping sensation in the heel
Try adjusting the laces for a tighter fit around the midfoot and ankle. The Heel Pillow® is designed to secure the heel, so a proper lace fit is crucial.
Outsole losing traction
Clean the Goodyear® Performance Outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth and brush to remove any embedded dirt or debris that may be reducing grip.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and grime from the engineered knit upper. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth.
- Cleaning the Insole: The Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole can often be removed. Hand wash with cool water and mild detergent, then air dry completely away from direct heat.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Use a brush to remove loose dirt and debris from the Goodyear® Performance Outsole. A damp cloth can be used for more stubborn dirt.
- Drying: Always air dry trainers naturally. Avoid placing them near radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Washing Machine: It is generally not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can degrade the cushioning and structural integrity.
