Product Information

Full details

The Skechers Arch Fit® Arcade - Arcata trainers are designed for adult women seeking supportive and comfortable footwear for everyday casual wear. Their key benefit lies in the podiatrist-certified Arch Fit® insole that provides superior arch support, promoting better foot alignment and comfort. A potential caveat is that the decorative laces are not functional for adjustment, meaning the fit is primarily determined by the shoe's construction and the insole. These shoes feature a canvas upper, a removable Arch Fit® insole, a lightweight cushioned midsole, and are machine washable and vegan.

FAQs

Are the laces on the Skechers Arch Fit® Arcade - Arcata adjustable?

No, the laces on this model are decorative and are not functional for adjusting the fit. The fit is primarily determined by the shoe's design and the Arch Fit® insole.

Can I remove the Arch Fit® insole?

Yes, the Arch Fit® insole is designed to be removable. This allows for easier cleaning and the option to use your own custom orthotics if needed, although you will lose the specific Arch Fit® support.

How do I wash these trainers?

You can machine wash them on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent. It is recommended to remove the insoles before washing and to air dry the shoes completely afterwards. Do not use a machine dryer.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These trainers are designed for walking and casual wear, prioritizing comfort and arch support. They do not offer the specific cushioning and stability features required for running or high-impact athletic activities.

What does 'Vegan' mean for these shoes?

It means that the materials used in the construction of these shoes are free from animal products or by-products.

What is the main benefit of the Arch Fit® system?

The Arch Fit® system provides podiatrist-certified arch support, which is designed to help stabilize your foot and improve foot alignment, leading to reduced fatigue and enhanced comfort during extended wear.

What is the typical use case for these shoes?

These shoes are ideal for daily casual wear, including walking, running errands, light travel, and for individuals who spend a lot of time on their feet and require extra support.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose or too tight.

As the laces are decorative, the fit is determined by the shoe's internal structure and the Arch Fit® insole. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. For a slightly snugger feel, you can try tucking the laces under themselves. If the fit is significantly off, consider a different size or model.

Arch support feels too pronounced or uncomfortable.

The Arch Fit® insole is designed for specific support. If it feels uncomfortable, try wearing the shoes for short periods initially to allow your feet to adapt. If discomfort persists, you can try removing the Arch Fit® insole and replacing it with a thinner, neutral insole (though this will reduce the intended arch support benefit).

Canvas upper shows signs of wear quickly.

Canvas is a durable material but can be susceptible to abrasion. Avoid excessive scuffing against rough surfaces. For minor scuffs, a gentle cleaning may help. For more significant wear, consider the limitations of the material for demanding activities.

Shoes have an odor after wear.

Remove the insoles and air the shoes out thoroughly. For persistent odors, the shoes are machine washable. Ensure they are completely dry before wearing again. Using antiperspirant foot spray can also help manage odor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. No assembly or complex setup is required. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and support.

Compatibility:

  • Foot Type: Ideal for individuals needing arch support, particularly those with medium to high arches. Podiatrist certification of the Arch Fit® insole suggests suitability for a wide range of adult foot types seeking enhanced comfort.
  • Activities: Best suited for walking, standing, and general casual wear. Not recommended for high-impact sports like running or intense training.
  • Weather: The canvas upper is breathable but offers limited protection against heavy rain or prolonged wet conditions.

Care:

  • Machine Washable: To clean, remove the Arch Fit® insole. Place the shoes in a washing bag or pillowcase and wash on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Air dry only; do not place in a dryer.
  • Insole Care: The removable Arch Fit® insole can be hand-washed with mild soap and water. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting into the shoe.
  • Drying: Always air dry shoes away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent material damage.
