FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for athletic training or running?
No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and offer comfort for daily activities. They are not intended for high-impact sports or intense athletic training.
How do I clean the pigskin suede upper?
Gently brush off dry dirt with a suede brush. For stains, use a suede eraser. It is best to avoid water and liquid cleaners on suede. A protective spray is recommended.
What is the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
It is a cushioned insole designed to provide enhanced comfort and breathability, conforming to your foot shape over time for a personalized fit.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet conditions, as water can damage the material and cause staining. A suede protectant spray can offer some resistance.
What other colors and sizes are available?
This specific product listing is for the Green - Size 9. Other colorways and sizes, including different Skechers Academy HI models, may be available separately.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to Skechers sizing charts for accurate measurements. The lace-up design allows for some adjustability to achieve a secure and comfortable fit.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort after initial wear
Allow a break-in period of a few wears. The memory foam insole will gradually conform to your foot shape.
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, try a suede eraser. Always test cleaning methods on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces are difficult to tie or come undone
Ensure the laces are threaded evenly through the eyelets and tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing the laces with a different material if they are too slippery.
Squeaking noise during walking
This can sometimes occur due to moisture or friction within the shoe. Ensure the insoles are dry and properly seated. A light dusting of powder inside the shoe might help if the noise persists.
