FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Skechers GO WALK 7™ - Vina are designed primarily for walking and casual comfort. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specific support or structure required for rigorous running activities.
What does 'Hyper Pillar Technology™' do?
Hyper Pillar Technology™ consists of responsive, high-rebound pillars underfoot that provide enhanced support and stability, improving alignment and reducing fatigue during long periods of walking or standing.
Can I wear these shoes without socks?
Yes, the Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole is designed for comfort and breathability, making the shoes suitable for sockless wear.
How long does the cushioning typically last?
The longevity of the cushioning depends on usage intensity and frequency. However, the ULTRA GO® cushioning is known for its durability for walking and casual wear. Proper care and avoiding excessive stress can help extend its lifespan.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the engineered knit upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or lightly damp conditions.
What is the main difference between GO WALK 7 and previous GO WALK models?
The GO WALK 7 series generally features updated cushioning systems like enhanced ULTRA GO® and potentially improved Hyper Pillar Technology™ for greater comfort and support, along with updated upper designs for better fit and breathability.
Is the 'Vina' model specifically for a narrow or wide foot?
The engineered knit upper offers a degree of adaptability. While not explicitly designed for a specific width, the flexible nature of the material often accommodates average-width feet well. For very wide or narrow feet, trying them on or checking specific sizing advice is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
The engineered knit upper is designed to stretch and conform to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in.
Reduced cushioning after prolonged use
While durable, cushioning can compress over time. Ensure the insoles are clean and free from debris. For significant degradation, consider replacing the insoles.
Difficulty removing shoes
Ensure your feet are completely dry when putting on or taking off the shoes. The sock-like fit can sometimes create a slight vacuum.
Stains on the knit upper
Follow the machine washable instructions. For fresh stains, try spot cleaning with a mild detergent and a soft brush before they set.
