FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed primarily for walking, casual wear, and light cross-training. While they offer cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support and impact absorption required for serious or long-distance running.
How do I clean the engineered mesh upper?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently clean the mesh. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash Skechers Gowalk Flex trainers as this can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and materials. Hand washing with a damp cloth is the preferred method.
What is the benefit of the Air-Cooled Goga Mat insole?
The Air-Cooled Goga Mat insole provides high-rebound cushioning for comfort and support, while also promoting airflow to help keep your feet cool and dry during wear.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the Skechers Gowalk Flex trainers are not waterproof. The engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability, making them suitable for dry conditions. They are not ideal for use in heavy rain or wet environments.
What does 'Flex Pillars' on the outsole mean?
Flex pillars are design elements on the outsole that enhance flexibility and provide stabilization. They allow the shoe to move more naturally with your foot and offer responsive cushioning during activities.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
The stretch laces allow for some adjustment. Try re-tying the laces to achieve a more personalized fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size.
Feet feel warm or sweaty.
The air-cooled Goga mat insole promotes breathability, but prolonged high activity can still lead to warmth. Ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material. Allow shoes to air out after use.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces.
While the outsole offers multi-surface traction, it is not designed for extreme wet conditions. Use caution on very slick or wet surfaces. Clean the outsole regularly to remove debris that might affect grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. The stretch laces provide a secure fit, but can be adjusted slightly by how they are tied if needed.
Compatibility: Designed for adult use, these trainers are suitable for men. They are ideal for walking, casual wear, and light cross-training activities.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the upper and sole. For tougher stains, a mild soap can be used sparingly with the damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Insoles: The insoles can typically be removed for separate cleaning or airing out. Hand wash gently and ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
