FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?
The Skechers Arch Fit Arcade - Cozy Fit Cuddle Steps are designed primarily for casual comfort and daily wear. While they offer good support, they may not provide the specialized features or stability required for intense athletic activities like running or court sports.
How do I activate the Hands-Free Slip-ins® feature?
Simply step into the shoe. The design, including the Heel Pillow™, allows your heel to slide in smoothly without you needing to bend down or use your hands.
Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, especially the suede and the internal cushioning systems. Spot clean and hand wash as per the care instructions.
What is the APMA Seal of Acceptance?
The APMA Seal of Acceptance is awarded to products that have been reviewed by a committee of podiatric physicians and found to be beneficial for foot health and appropriate for use by consumers.
How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?
Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a suede eraser is often effective. It's best to avoid getting the suede wet and to use a suede protector spray to help repel stains and water.
What size should I get if I'm between sizes?
Since the fit is designed to be snug and comfortable, if you are between sizes, it's often recommended to try the larger size, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks. However, the removable insole allows for some fit adjustment.
Are the laces functional?
The laces on this model are decorative stretch laces. They provide a secure look but do not allow for traditional tightening or loosening.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
The stretch laces are decorative. For minor adjustments, ensure your foot is positioned correctly. If the fit is consistently off, consider if the size is appropriate or if a different insole might alter the fit sufficiently.
Heel slipping out.
Ensure the Heel Pillow™ is properly engaging your heel. Try a different sock thickness, or confirm that the shoe size is correct, as a size too large can cause slippage.
Suede material looks dirty or stained.
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a suede eraser might help. For tougher stains or water spots, consult a professional suede cleaner or use a suede protector spray to prevent future issues.
Arch support feels too pronounced or insufficient.
The Arch Fit® insole is removable. If the support is too much, try wearing the shoes for short periods to get accustomed to them. If it's insufficient or too high, consider replacing it with a different insole that better suits your foot needs.

Care:
- Upper (Suede & Cozy Fit): For the suede portions, use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid getting the suede wet. For the quilted Cozy Fit upper, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow to air dry completely.
- Insole: The removable Arch Fit® insole can be gently hand-washed with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before reinserting.
