FAQs

What makes the Arch Fit insole special?

The Arch Fit insole is developed with podiatrist guidance and features a contoured design with shock-absorbing foam cushioning that provides superior comfort and support for your foot's arch.

How do I clean my Skechers Arch Fit trainers?

For the uppers, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. The insoles can often be removed and spot-cleaned. Always air dry the shoes away from heat.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are best suited for walking, casual wear, and light training. For high-impact running, a shoe specifically designed for running with more advanced cushioning and support features would be recommended.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand-cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.

What is the benefit of the Slip-Ins technology?

The Slip-Ins technology allows you to put on and take off the shoes effortlessly without bending down or using your hands, making them incredibly convenient.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a comfortable fit around the width of your foot and adequate room in the toe box. Your heel should feel secure without slipping excessively, though some initial adjustment may occur.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe

Ensure your socks are not too thick. Try slipping the shoe on from a seated position, using the heel counter for stability. If the shoe feels too snug, consider a different size or model.

Arch support feels too pronounced

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow your feet to adjust. If the discomfort persists, the Arch Fit may not be suitable for your foot type. Consider trying a different Skechers model with less pronounced arch support.

Shoes feel slippery on wet surfaces

While the outsole offers traction, extremely wet or polished surfaces can still be slippery. Exercise caution in such conditions. Ensure the outsole is clean of any debris that might reduce grip.

Discoloration of mesh or Duraleather

Avoid exposing the shoes to prolonged direct sunlight or harsh cleaning agents. Clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
