FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Skechers GO WALK Flex Safiya trainers are designed primarily for walking and casual wear. They feature lightweight cushioning but may not offer the specific support and stability required for high-impact running.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. Hand-wash the upper gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, and allow them to air dry naturally.
What does 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' mean?
Hands Free Slip-ins® technology allows you to put on and take off the shoes without needing to bend down or use your hands, thanks to a unique heel design.
Is the 'Stretch Fit®' upper adjustable?
The Stretch Fit® upper is designed to be flexible and adapt to your foot. However, the laces are fixed stretch laces, meaning they do not offer traditional lace adjustment for tightness.
What is the Heel Pillow®?
The Heel Pillow® is a comfort feature integrated into the heel collar of the shoe, designed to provide a secure and cushioned fit around the ankle.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The breathable knit upper is not waterproof. While they can handle light splashes, they are not designed for heavy rain or wet conditions.
What is the main benefit of the ULTRA GO® cushioning?
ULTRA GO® cushioning provides lightweight, responsive shock absorption, making the trainers comfortable for walking and standing for extended periods.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight.
While the laces are fixed, the Heel Pillow® and knit upper offer some adaptation. Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the issue persists, consider the fit of other Skechers models.
Difficulty slipping shoes on initially.
Ensure your heel is properly aligned with the Heel Pillow®. Sometimes, a slight wiggle can help the foot slide into place, especially when first broken in.
Insole feels flat or uncomfortable after some wear.
The Memory Foam™ insole is designed to mold to your foot over time. If comfort decreases significantly, ensure the insole is clean and dry. For persistent issues, consider using supportive insoles designed for trainers.
Knit upper shows signs of wear or pilling.
Gently brush the affected area with a soft-bristled brush. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods. Consider wearing them for less demanding activities if significant wear is observed.
