Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
While the materials are durable, it is recommended to spot clean them to preserve the adhesive and foam integrity, rather than using a machine.
Can I use these for running?
No, the GO WALK series is engineered specifically for walking and daily wear, lacking the lateral stability required for running.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the engineered knit upper is designed for breathability and will allow water to penetrate if exposed to heavy rain.
Do I need to tie the laces?
No, this model features fixed stretch laces, allowing for a convenient slip-on experience.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The stretch knit upper offers flexibility that can accommodate various foot shapes, but it is standard width.
Troubleshooting
Knit upper shows minor snags
Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces; use small embroidery scissors to carefully trim any loose threads.
Footbed feels less responsive over time
Ensure the insole is clean and free of debris; if heavily compressed, replace with a dedicated athletic insole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed for immediate use out of the box with no break-in period required due to the flexible knit upper. To maintain the structural integrity and aesthetic of the shoes:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap to spot clean the engineered knit. Avoid fully submerging the shoes in water unless specified as machine washable.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation or fading.
- Compatibility: Best paired with casual or athletic socks. If you prefer a very snug fit, ensure your UK size (2.5 in this model) aligns with your usual athletic footwear sizing.
