FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The GO WALK 8™ - Day trainers are designed specifically for walking and casual wear. They offer cushioning and support for walking activities but do not provide the specialized features or support required for running.
Can I replace the laces if they are damaged?
These trainers feature fixed stretch laces that are integrated into the design for an easy slip-on fit. They are not designed to be replaced.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The flat knit upper is breathable and not waterproof. While they can handle light splashes, they are not designed for use in wet conditions.
How do I ensure the correct size?
Refer to Skechers' official sizing chart and measure your foot length. Considering these are trainers, a snug but comfortable fit is ideal. The fixed laces mean you won't be able to adjust them significantly.
What does 'vegan' mean for these shoes?
Vegan means that no animal-derived materials or by-products were used in the manufacturing of these shoes.
How often should I machine wash these trainers?
Machine wash only when necessary to maintain the shoe's integrity and appearance. Over-washing can reduce the lifespan of the cushioning and materials.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
The fixed stretch laces offer a standard fit. For minor adjustments, try thicker or thinner socks. If the fit is significantly off, consider if this model is suitable for your foot shape. Skechers offers various fits and lacing systems in other models.
Reduced cushioning over time.
While the cushioning is designed for durability, it can naturally compress with heavy use. Ensure you are following care instructions to maintain material integrity. For significantly degraded cushioning, it may be time to consider a replacement pair.
Difficulty cleaning the knit upper.
If machine washing is not feasible, use a soft brush or cloth with cold water and mild soap to gently scrub the affected area. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry.
