Product Information

Full details

The Skechers Go Walk Arch Fit 2.0 trainers are designed for adult males seeking superior comfort and support for daily wear and walking. Their key benefit lies in the podiatrist-certified Arch Fit technology, offering exceptional arch support and cushioning from extensive foot scans. A potential consideration is that while they offer a secure fit, the bungee lacing is not adjustable for a custom tightness. Key features include the Arch Fit system, a secure hands-free slip-in design, a premium engineered knit upper, and a machine-washable construction for easy maintenance. These trainers are also made with 100% vegan materials.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The Skechers Go Walk Arch Fit 2.0 trainers are primarily designed for walking and everyday comfort. They offer good cushioning and support for walking, but lack the specialized features and stability required for running or high-impact athletic activities.

How do I know if the Arch Fit technology is right for my feet?

Arch Fit technology is designed to provide enhanced support for the arch, which can benefit many individuals experiencing discomfort or fatigue. If you have very flat feet or very high arches, it's recommended to try them on or consult with a foot health professional to see if the contouring matches your needs.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles in the Skechers Go Walk Arch Fit 2.0 trainers are typically removable, allowing you to replace them with your own custom orthotics if needed. Ensure any replacement insoles are compatible in size and shape.

Are these waterproof?

No, these trainers are not waterproof. The engineered knit upper is breathable, which means it allows air circulation but will not repel water. They are suitable for dry conditions and light moisture but should not be submerged in water.

What does 'vegan friendly' mean in this context?

It means that no animal-derived materials or by-products were used in the manufacturing of these shoes. The entire shoe, from the upper to the sole and adhesives, is made from synthetic and plant-based materials.

How often should I wash these trainers?

It's recommended to wash them only when they appear visibly dirty or start to smell. Over-washing can potentially reduce the lifespan of the materials and cushioning. Always air dry them completely after washing.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose or too tight

The bungee lacing is not adjustable. Try wearing thicker or thinner socks to adjust the fit. If the fit remains uncomfortable, consider exploring other models with traditional lacing or adjustable features.

Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe

Ensure the heel collar is fully open. Gently guide your foot into the shoe, using the heel loop. Wearing thinner socks may also help initially.

Reduced cushioning after extended use

The Arch Fit insole is designed for lasting support. If cushioning seems to have decreased, ensure the shoes are clean and dry. If the issue persists, the insole may need replacement after significant wear.

Traction seems poor on wet surfaces

While the outsole offers good traction, it's important to note that no shoe is entirely slip-proof, especially on wet or slick surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no initial setup. Simply put them on and go.

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, these trainers are suitable for most foot shapes due to the flexible knit upper and supportive insole. They are compatible with various sock thicknesses, though the slip-in design may feel most secure with thinner to medium socks.

Care Instructions:

  1. Machine Washable: Place the trainers in a washing machine bag or pillowcase.
  2. Use Cold Water: Wash on a gentle cycle with cold water.
  3. Mild Detergent: Use a small amount of mild detergent.
  4. Air Dry: Remove from the washing machine and allow them to air dry completely. Do not use a dryer or direct heat, as this can damage the materials.
  5. Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water.
