Full details
For adult women seeking comfortable and supportive everyday trainers, the Skechers BOBS Sport Arch Fit Elev8 in Sage Green offers a key benefit of enhanced arch support for prolonged wear.

FAQs
Are these shoes good for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear, walking, and light activities. They offer good support and cushioning for these purposes but may not provide the specialized features or stability required for intense running.
Can I replace the Arch Fit® insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the Arch Fit® insole is designed to be removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics or insoles if needed. Ensure your orthotics are compatible in terms of size and thickness.
How do I clean the metallic heel clip?
The metallic heel clip can be wiped gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the finish.
What does 'BOBS from Skechers' commitment mean?
It means that a portion of the proceeds from the sale of BOBS from Skechers products helps fund the care of dogs and cats, supporting animal shelters and rescue organizations.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The engineered knit upper is breathable and not waterproof. These trainers are suitable for dry conditions and light moisture but are not designed for heavy rain or wet environments.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the Skechers size chart for accurate measurements. For this specific model, UK size 5.5 is listed. If you are between sizes or prefer a looser fit, you might consider sizing up.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
The engineered knit and fixed stretch laces offer a snug fit. If they feel too tight initially, wear them for short periods to allow them to mold to your foot. If persistent discomfort, consider if this is the correct size or if a different Skechers model with adjustable laces might be more suitable.
Reduced arch support over time
The Arch Fit® insole is removable. Try taking it out, cleaning it, and reinserting it. If the support diminishes significantly, consider replacing the insole with a new Skechers Arch Fit® compatible insole.
Discoloration of the knit upper
Avoid exposing the trainers to harsh chemicals or prolonged direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur if moisture is trapped. Ensure the shoes and insoles are completely dry. Check for any loose parts or debris in the sole.
