FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The GO WALK 8 - Pelayo trainers are primarily designed for walking and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specific support and structure required for high-impact running activities.
How do I ensure the right size?
Refer to the Skechers sizing chart for accurate measurements. These are UK men's sizes. The Stretch Fit® upper offers some flexibility, but a correct initial size is important for comfort.
Can I wear these without socks?
Yes, the Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole is designed to be comfortable against the foot, and the breathable materials make them suitable for sockless wear.
What does 'vegan' mean in this context?
It means the shoes are constructed using materials and processes that do not involve any animal products or by-products.
How long does the cushioning typically last?
The lifespan of the cushioning depends on usage frequency and intensity. With regular wear and proper care, the ULTRA GO® midsole and Goga Mat™ insole should provide comfort for a significant period, but may eventually compress with extensive use.
What is the main advantage of the Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins®?
The primary advantage is the ability to put on and take off the shoes effortlessly without needing to bend down or use your hands, making them incredibly convenient.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is fully extended. Try wearing thinner socks or no socks. Relax your foot completely when inserting.
Insole feels too firm
The Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially to allow them to conform to your foot.
Shoe feels slightly loose
While designed for a comfortable fit, if the shoe feels too loose, consider using thin insoles or an insert for a snugger feel. The Stretch Fit® upper does offer some adaptive comfort.
Color transfer from fabric
This can occasionally happen with new knit materials. If experiencing color transfer, avoid wearing with very light-colored socks until after the first wash. Machine washing as per care instructions should mitigate this.
