FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
While many Skechers are machine washable, we recommend spot cleaning with mild soap and water to preserve the integrity of the memory foam.
Is the insole removable?
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole is typically integrated into the footbed for optimal comfort and stability.
Can I use these for running?
These trainers are designed for walking and lifestyle activity; they do not provide the stability or motion control required for long-distance running.
Does the shoe run true to size?
The Flex Appeal 5.0 typically fits true to size, but we recommend ordering your standard UK shoe size.
What material is the outsole made of?
The outsole is made of EVA, a lightweight material known for its flexible and shock-absorbing properties.
Troubleshooting
Insole feels less cushioned over time
Memory foam can compress with heavy daily use; allow the shoes to rest for 24 hours between wears to let the foam recover.
Upper mesh attracts dust or dirt
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt from the mesh weave before spot cleaning with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Skechers last, keep them away from harsh cleaning chemicals. Spot clean the engineered mesh upper using a soft cloth, mild soap, and cold water. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the memory foam or damage the EVA sole. Since these are lace-up trainers, ensure your laces are adjusted correctly to prevent heel slippage; replacing laces with high-quality alternatives can refresh the look and feel of the shoe over time.
