FAQs
Are these shoes actually machine washable?
Yes, they are machine washable. It is recommended to use a cold, gentle cycle and let them air dry.
Are these suitable for running?
No, these are casual trainers designed for walking and everyday wear, not for running or high-impact athletic activities.
Do I need to tie any laces?
No, these are designed as a hands-free slip-on trainer, so there are no laces to tie.
What does 'Vegan' mean for these shoes?
It means the materials used in the construction of the shoes, including the fabrics and glues, do not contain any animal-derived products.
Do they provide good arch support?
The memory foam insole provides good cushioning and moderate support, but they are not orthopaedic shoes.
Are they true to size?
Generally, Skechers Ultra Flex series run true to size, but the sock-like fit may feel more snug than a traditional shoe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel loose after extended wear
The textile material can relax over time; use an extra thin insole if needed to restore a snug fit.
Odor buildup in the interior
Since they are machine washable, a gentle cycle with a small amount of fabric freshener will remove odors effectively.
Difficulty slipping on without hands
Ensure the heel tab is pulled fully upright when stepping in to allow the heel counter to collapse and spring back correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed for immediate use out of the box with no break-in period required. To maintain your shoes, simply place them in a cold, gentle cycle in the washing machine using a mild detergent; air drying is recommended to preserve the integrity of the memory foam. Because they feature a regular width and flexible upper, they are generally compatible with most foot shapes, though those with very wide feet may prefer to try them on for an accurate fit assessment. Keep the shoes away from extreme heat sources, such as radiators, which could warp the synthetic sole.
