Full details
The Skechers GO RUN Now trainers are designed for adult women seeking comfortable and convenient footwear for running and training. Their key benefit is the 'No Tie Fit' system, offering a secure feel without the hassle of traditional laces, coupled with responsive cushioning for an energized stride. A potential caveat is that while machine washable, proper care is still advised to maintain material integrity. These trainers feature an athletic mesh upper, stretch laces, ULTRA LIGHT cushioning, and a breathable Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole, all in a vegan construction.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The athletic mesh upper and stretch laces offer some flexibility. However, for significantly wide feet, the fit might be snug. It is recommended to try them on if possible or check reviews regarding fit for wider foot shapes.
How durable is the 'No Tie Fit' system?
The stretch laces are designed for durability and regular use. They are integrated into the shoe's design for a secure fit that lasts.
Can I use these for high-intensity interval training (HIIT)?
These trainers are suitable for general training, which can include some HIIT workouts. However, for very high-impact plyometrics or movements requiring extreme lateral support, a shoe specifically designed for HIIT might be more appropriate.
What is the difference between 'GO RUN Now' and other Skechers GO RUN models?
The 'GO RUN Now' series often emphasizes convenience features like the 'No Tie Fit' and easy care, while maintaining core running performance aspects. Other GO RUN models might focus more on specific running technologies or minimalist designs.
How do I know if I ordered the correct size?
Refer to the Skechers sizing chart for accurate measurements. Most users find Skechers trainers true to size, but individual foot shape can influence fit. The stretch laces offer a forgiving fit.
Are these waterproof?
No, the mesh upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions or light moisture but not for heavy rain or puddles.
What does 'vegan' mean in the product description?
It means that no animal-derived materials or by-products were used in the manufacturing of these trainers.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight initially
Adjust the position of the stretch laces by gently pulling or repositioning them within the eyelets to find your optimal comfort level. The laces are designed to stretch and conform over time.
Discoloration after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and washing with cold water only. Avoid washing with dark or colored items. Always air dry.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
Regularly clean the insoles as per care instructions. For significant wear, consider replacing the insoles with compatible Skechers insoles or aftermarket options.
Slight odor development
Ensure the shoes are thoroughly dried after washing or wear. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or place baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Regular washing can also help.
