FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These shoes are designed primarily for walking and casual wear. While they offer comfort and cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support and stability required for high-impact running activities.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Spot clean the mesh upper using a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Gently rub the affected area and then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry completely.
What does 'vegan design' mean?
A vegan design means that no animal products or by-products were used in the manufacturing of the shoe. This includes materials for the upper, sole, adhesives, and any other components.
Can I replace the laces?
The laces on this model are fixed stretch laces and are not designed to be replaced with traditional shoelaces. They are integrated into the design for a slip-on fit.
Are these waterproof?
No, the heathered mesh upper is breathable and designed for ventilation, not waterproofing. These shoes are not suitable for wet conditions or rain.
What is the benefit of the Flex Pillars™ outsole?
The Flex Pillars™ are designed to provide stability and flexibility across various surfaces, promoting a smoother transition during your stride and offering reliable traction.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Due to the fixed stretch laces, adjustability is limited. For a tighter feel, ensure laces are evenly tensioned. For a looser feel, try gently stretching the lace area. If fit remains an issue, consider other Skechers models with traditional laces.
Reduced cushioning after prolonged use.
The insoles are designed for long-term comfort, but like all cushioning, they can compress over time. Consider replacing the Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole with a compatible aftermarket insole for a refreshed feel.
Slipping on wet surfaces.
While the Flex Pillars™ outsole offers multi-surface traction, wet surfaces can reduce grip for any footwear. Exercise caution on wet floors or pavements.
