FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

While some Skechers models are machine washable, we recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth to protect the specialized Heel Pillow and foam technology.

Can I use these for running?

These are designed for walking and casual activities. They do not offer the stability and support required for long-distance running or high-impact athletic training.

Do I need to break them in?

Most users find the GO WALK Flex comfortable right out of the box due to the flexible mesh and memory foam insoles.

How does the hands-free feature work?

The heel is engineered to be rigid enough to hold its shape as you step in, while the Heel Pillow gently catches and secures your heel inside the shoe.

Are they waterproof?

No, the breathable mesh upper is designed for airflow and is not waterproof or water-resistant.

Troubleshooting

Heel slipping while walking

Ensure your heel is fully pushed down into the Heel Pillow; the specialized design is meant to lock the heel in place once the foot is settled.

Insole feels too firm

Memory foam requires body heat to soften and conform to your foot; wear the shoes for a few hours to allow the foam to activate and reach optimal comfort.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effortless hands-free entry saves time and effort
  • Lightweight construction reduces fatigue on long walks
  • Excellent ventilation thanks to mesh upper material
  • Secure fit provided by the integrated heel cushioning

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-duty sports or extreme terrain
  • Mesh material may not be water-resistant in wet weather
  • Slip-on design offers less adjustability than traditional lace-up shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because of the slip-in design, no complex setup is required. To maintain the life of your trainers, it is recommended to spot-clean the mesh upper with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid submerging them in a washing machine if possible to preserve the structural integrity of the Heel Pillow and memory foam. Ensure you choose your standard UK size for the best fit, as the memory foam will naturally contour to your foot shape after a few wears. If the shoes become damp, air-dry them away from direct heat sources to prevent the materials from warping or degrading.
