The Skechers BOBS Sport™ B Flex Hi - Flying HI trainers are designed for women seeking a blend of athletic style, everyday comfort, and a charitable contribution.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
These trainers are designed for fashion and light, casual activity. They offer comfort for daily wear but may not provide the specialized support and cushioning required for high-impact, long-distance running like marathons.
How do I know if I've purchased the right size?
The trainers should feel snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box. Your heel should not slip excessively. It's recommended to try them on with the type of socks you typically wear. Refer to Skechers' sizing chart for guidance.
What does the BOBS® purchase contribution entail?
For every pair of BOBS® shoes purchased, Skechers makes a donation to help save and better the lives of dogs and cats. This contribution supports various animal welfare organizations.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing or drying is not recommended. This can damage the engineered knit upper, the Memory Foam™ insole, and alter the shoe's shape. Hand wash and air dry only.
How long does the Memory Foam™ insole typically last?
The durability of the Memory Foam™ insole depends on usage frequency and care. With proper care and regular wear for daily activities, it should maintain its cushioning properties for a considerable time. For intense use, it may show wear sooner.
What is the main difference between BOBS Sport and other Skechers lines?
The BOBS Sport line typically emphasizes a blend of athletic-inspired style with enhanced comfort features for everyday wear, often incorporating trend-driven designs suitable for a more casual or sporty aesthetic compared to more traditional walking or performance running shoes.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the laces. For a tighter fit, pull laces more firmly at each eyelet. For a looser fit, ease the tension on the laces. Ensure the knot is secure but not overly tight.
Discomfort from the Memory Foam™ insole
Ensure you have the correct size. If the insole feels initially firm, it may take a few wears to break in and conform to your foot's shape. If persistent discomfort occurs, consider trying a different insole or consulting a professional.
Difficulty cleaning the engineered knit upper
Use a soft brush with a mild soap and water mixture. Gently scrub the affected area, then wipe thoroughly with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive soaking.
Slight odor after wear
Ensure feet are dry before wearing. Use breathable socks. Remove insoles and air them out separately. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake out before wearing.
