FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These sneakers are optimized for walking. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support and stability required for high-impact running activities.
Can the laces be adjusted?
The Skechers GO WALK Flex - Ultra features fixed stretch laces designed for a slip-on fit. They are not adjustable in the traditional sense.
What does 'vegan-friendly' mean for these shoes?
It means the shoes are constructed without any animal-derived materials or by-products.
How do I know if this is the right size for me?
Refer to the size chart for Skechers footwear and measure your foot to find the best UK size match. The design offers some flexibility, but a proper initial fit is important.
Can these be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these sneakers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning to preserve the materials and cushioning.
What is the benefit of the Flex Pillars™?
The Flex Pillars™ on the outsole are designed to enhance stability and provide a more responsive feel on various walking surfaces, adapting to uneven terrain.
How durable is the polyester upper?
The polyester mesh upper is designed for breathability and flexibility. While durable for everyday walking, it is best suited for moderate activities rather than highly demanding or abrasive use.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
The mesh and cushioning will adapt to your foot shape with wear. If they remain uncomfortable after a few wears, consider if the fixed laces are too restrictive for your foot width.
Reduced cushioning over time
The ULTRA GO® cushioning is designed for durability. If you notice reduced responsiveness, ensure the insoles are clean and dry. For significant degradation, consider replacement.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the Flex Pillars™ offer multi-surface traction, they are not designed for extreme wet conditions. Exercise caution on very slick or wet surfaces.
Odor development
Ensure the shoes are aired out regularly. Use a deodorizing spray or powder specifically for footwear. Remove and air out the insoles frequently.

Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For mesh areas, a soft brush can be used gently. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Insole Care: The Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole can be removed for airing out or spot cleaning with a damp cloth. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting.
- Outsole Maintenance: Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove debris. Ensure the Flex Pillars™ are clear of obstructions.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a dryer, as this can damage the materials.
