FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

While they offer excellent cushioning, they are primarily designed for comfort during everyday wear and light athletic activities. For marathon running, a shoe with more specialized performance features and a potentially firmer feel might be more appropriate.

Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?

The mesh upper is breathable, which means it is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions. While they can handle light splashes, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the Skechers sizing chart for accurate measurements. Ensure there is a thumbnail's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing.

What makes the Goga Mat™ insole unique?

The Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole is designed to be highly breathable and features copper infusion, which is believed to offer additional comfort and odor-control properties, while providing responsive cushioning.

Is the "Alaura" a specific feature or a model name?

Alaura is part of the model name for this specific colorway and design within the Skechers Max Cushioning Elite 2.0 series, indicating a particular aesthetic and potentially slight variations in detailing.

How durable is the ULTRA GO® cushioning?

ULTRA GO® cushioning is designed for durability and responsiveness, providing long-lasting comfort. However, like all cushioning technologies, its lifespan will depend on the frequency and intensity of use.

Troubleshooting

Foot fatigue despite cushioning

Ensure the laces are properly tied to provide adequate midfoot support. Consider if the shoe's cushioning level is suitable for your specific activity and foot type; some may require a firmer shoe.

Mesh upper feels restrictive

Loosen the laces, especially around the areas that feel tight. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to adapt to your foot shape.

Slipping sensation

Check that the shoes fit correctly. If they are too large, consider using an insole or heel grip. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris that could affect traction.

Odors developing

Remove the insoles and air them out separately. Use a shoe deodorizer or baking soda overnight inside the shoes. Ensure feet are dry before wearing the trainers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for long-wear comfort.
  • Breathable materials keep feet cool.
  • Versatile design suitable for light athletic activities and daily wear.
  • Vegan-friendly construction.
  • Lightweight feel despite significant cushioning.

Cons

  • May be too soft for users preferring a very firm shoe.
  • The focus on cushioning might slightly reduce ground feel for some runners.
  • Lace-up design requires manual adjustment for fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a comfortable, secure fit before your first use.

Compatibility: Suitable for women engaging in walking, casual wear, and light athletic training. Not recommended for high-intensity sports requiring advanced stability or a firm ground feel.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the mesh upper and midsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush.
  2. Insoles: The insoles can often be removed for airing out or spot cleaning. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
  3. Drying: Air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and construction.
