FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
While some Skechers models are machine washable, the canvas material on the Wild Nite series is best maintained through manual spot cleaning to preserve the fabric's integrity and shape.
Do I need to tie these laces?
No, these trainers feature fixed stretch laces designed for a slip-on experience; they are purely decorative and provide the necessary tension for a secure fit.
What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?
The American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) Seal of Acceptance is awarded to products that promote good foot health and meet high standards for quality and effectiveness.
Can I replace the insoles with my own orthotics?
Yes, the Arch Fit insoles are removable, making it possible to insert custom orthotics if preferred.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The canvas material and stretch-lace design offer a forgiving fit for most foot shapes, though Skechers also offers specific wide-width versions if you have exceptionally wide feet.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the canvas upper is not waterproof. It is best suited for dry or light-weather conditions.
Troubleshooting
Heel slippage while walking
Ensure the Heel Pillow is sitting flush against your heel; if you are between sizes, ensure your foot is fully pushed into the toe box to activate the secure fit.
Canvas becoming stained
Use a specialized fabric cleaner and a soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt; avoid scrubbing too hard to prevent fiber degradation.
Insole feels less supportive over time
Remove the insole, clean it with a damp cloth, and let it air dry. If the material has completely compressed, consider replacing the insole with a certified Skechers Arch Fit replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed for immediate wear right out of the box with no break-in period typically required. To maintain the appearance and structural integrity of your Skechers:
- Cleaning: Spot clean the canvas upper using a soft cloth, mild soap, and cold water. Avoid using harsh chemical detergents.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can warp the materials.
- Insole Maintenance: The Arch Fit insole is removable. If it becomes damp from perspiration, take it out periodically to air dry independently.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew on the canvas fabric.
