FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The Skechers Summits trainers are designed for lightweight comfort and cushioning for everyday wear and light athletic activities. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with more advanced support and cushioning tailored for high-impact, long-distance running are recommended.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning system. Hand washing the upper and insoles separately with mild soap and water is the preferred method for cleaning.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
A proper fit means there should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the shoe should feel comfortable around the width of your foot without pinching.
What is the benefit of the copper-infused insole?
The copper infusion in the insole is designed to help manage heat and odor, contributing to a fresher and more comfortable foot environment during wear.
How long does the cushioning typically last?
The lifespan of the cushioning depends on usage frequency and intensity. For regular daily wear, the ULTRA GO® cushioning should provide comfort for many months. For more strenuous activities, the cushioning may degrade faster. Look for signs of reduced responsiveness or impact absorption as indicators it might be time for a replacement.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the Skechers Summits trainers are not waterproof. They feature a breathable mesh upper designed for ventilation, which means they will not provide protection against water or heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Foot odor after prolonged use
Ensure the insoles are removed and aired out regularly. Use moisture-wicking socks and clean the insoles with mild soap and water, allowing them to dry completely before reinserting.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness
The cushioning may have compressed over time with extensive use. Consider replacing the insoles if they are worn out, or if significant cushioning loss persists, it may be time to consider a new pair.
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure the laces are properly adjusted. If the shoe still feels tight, the width might not be suitable. These trainers are designed for a standard fit; consider alternative models if a wider fit is needed.
Traction seems poor on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good traction, but performance on extremely wet or slick surfaces can be reduced. Clean the outsole regularly to remove any debris that might be hindering grip. For very wet conditions, extra caution is advised.

Cons
- May not provide sufficient ankle support for very strenuous activities.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Skechers Summits trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general athletic activities and casual wear. They are compatible with most athletic socks. Avoid wearing them with thick, non-breathable socks, as this may negate the cooling benefits of the shoe.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently clean the mesh upper with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
- Insole Care: The Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole can often be removed for separate cleaning. Hand wash with mild soap and water, then air dry completely before reinserting.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can damage the materials. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
