FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Skechers GO WALK Flex Safiya Trainers are designed for casual walking and everyday comfort. They feature lightweight cushioning but are not engineered for the support and stability required for high-impact running.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
The Stretch Fit® upper provides some flexibility. Ensure your heel is comfortably secured by the Heel Pillow® and there is no significant pressure on the top of your foot. Try them on with your usual everyday socks.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the cushioning, insole, and knit materials. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers feature a breathable knit upper and are not designed to be waterproof. They may offer some resistance to light moisture but are not suitable for wet conditions.
What does 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' mean?
Hands Free Slip-ins® technology allows you to put on and take off the shoes without using your hands, thanks to a structured heel and an internal cushioning system.
Is the insole removable?
The Skechers Memory Foam™ insole is typically integrated but may be removable in some versions or after some wear. Check inside the shoe; if it's not glued down, you can carefully remove it.
Are these trainers available in men's sizes?
The GO WALK Flex Safiya model is specifically designed for women. Skechers offers various other models with Hands Free Slip-ins® technology that are available in men's sizing.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too loose or too tight.
Due to the Stretch Fit® upper and fixed laces, adjustability is limited. For a looser fit, ensure the Heel Pillow® is correctly cradling your heel. For a snugger feel, ensure your foot is fully seated. Consider socks of varying thickness. If the fit is significantly off, a different size or model might be more suitable.
Difficulty using Hands Free Slip-ins®.
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is holding its shape. Step into the shoe fully and allow the natural flex of your foot to engage with the Heel Pillow®. Avoid forcing your foot; a smooth, steady step is most effective.
Skechers Memory Foam™ insole loses cushioning.
Memory foam can compress over time. Periodically clean the insoles as per care instructions. If cushioning significantly diminishes, consider replacing the insoles with compatible aftermarket insoles.
Knit upper appears to be snagging or fraying.
Be cautious of sharp objects or rough surfaces that could snag the knit material. If minor fraying occurs, carefully trim loose threads with small scissors. For significant damage, professional repair may be needed, or replacement considered.

Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the speckle knit upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
