FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed primarily for walking and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specific support or stability required for running or high-impact athletic activities.
Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and materials. Hand wash gently and air dry as per the care instructions.
What does 'vegan construction' mean?
Vegan construction means that no animal products or by-products were used in the making of the shoe. This includes materials like leather, suede, or animal-derived glues.
How does the Heel Pillow™ work?
The Heel Pillow™ is a structural element within the heel collar of the shoe that maintains its shape, creating an opening that allows you to easily slip your foot in without needing to touch the shoe.
Are the laces adjustable?
No, the Skechers GO WALK Flex - Carla Sneaker features fixed stretch laces that are part of the slip-on design. They provide a snug fit but cannot be adjusted.
What is the benefit of Flex Pillars™?
Flex Pillars™ are integrated into the midsole to provide enhanced stability and support, particularly beneficial during the walking motion, helping to create a smoother stride.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Try them on with the type of socks you typically wear for walking. Ensure there is comfortable room in the toe box and that your heel feels secure within the Heel Pillow™ without slipping.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
The fixed stretch laces offer a secure fit but are not adjustable. If the fit is not ideal, consider if the sizing is correct or if this particular shoe model is suited to your foot shape. Ensure your heel is fully seated in the Heel Pillow™.
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe.
Ensure the Heel Pillow™ is properly shaped and that you are sliding your foot straight in. Sometimes, a slight twist of the foot can help. Make sure socks are not too thick.
Cushioning feels insufficient.
The ULTRA GO® midsole and Memory Foam insole provide moderate cushioning. For additional support, consider purchasing separate insoles designed for firmer cushioning, ensuring they fit within the shoe without compromising the slip-on function.
Mesh upper appears dirty or stained.
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid oversaturation. For stubborn stains, a soft brush can be used carefully.
