FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light activity, not for high-intensity running or specialized sports.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is generally recommended to hand clean these shoes to maintain the integrity of the materials, unless the specific product tag indicates machine-washable capabilities.
Do these shoes provide arch support?
They feature standard cushioned support, but they are not specialized orthopedic shoes. You can add your own inserts if additional support is needed.
How do I choose the right size?
These trainers use standard UK sizing. We recommend ordering your usual footwear size, keeping in mind the standard width fitting.
Is the heel height noticeable?
Yes, the 5cm heel provides a subtle increase in height, which many users find gives a more aesthetic look while remaining stable.
Are they slip-on or lace-up?
They feature a hybrid design that incorporates both lace and slip-on functionality for ease of use and a secure fit.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight across the midfoot
Adjust the lace tension to loosen the upper section; if the fit remains uncomfortable, the standard width design may not be ideal for your foot shape.
Heel slippage while walking
Tighten the laces more securely at the top eyelets or utilize a runner's loop knot to increase heel lockdown.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best initial experience, ensure you are wearing the appropriate thickness of socks to test your fit, as the standard width is designed for moderate volume. To maintain the appearance and functionality of your Skechers Bobs Skillz, follow these care steps:
- Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or debris from the upper fabric.
- Stain Removal: For surface spots, dab with a cloth soaked in a mild soap and cold water solution; avoid harsh detergents.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes in a cool, shaded area. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as these can warp the materials.
- Storage: Keep them in a well-ventilated space to ensure the interior remains fresh and odor-free.
