FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and walking comfort. While they offer good support, they are not engineered for high-impact running activities. For running, consider specialized running shoes.
Can I replace the Arch Fit® insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the Arch Fit® insole is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics or insoles if needed. Please note that this may affect the overall fit and feel of the shoe.
How do I clean the metallic heel clip?
The metallic heel clip can be cleaned gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or materials that could scratch the finish.
What does 'BOBS® from Skechers® is committed to saving the lives of pets in need' mean?
This means that Skechers donates a portion of its proceeds from BOBS® product sales to animal welfare organizations, helping to support shelter animals and their adoption.
How do the fixed stretch laces work?
The laces are designed to look like traditional laces but are fixed in place and elasticated, allowing the shoe to slip on and off easily while maintaining a secure fit.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the engineered knit upper is breathable but not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions; prolonged exposure to wetness may result in the shoes becoming saturated.
What is the weight of the trainers?
The trainers are designed to be lightweight for everyday comfort. Specific weight details can vary slightly by size but are generally suitable for extended wear without feeling heavy.
Troubleshooting
Insole feels too firm or offers incorrect support.
Ensure the Arch Fit® insole is correctly positioned. If it still feels unsuitable, consider trying without the insole or inserting your own compatible orthotic.
Shoes feel slightly loose due to stretch laces.
While the laces are fixed, you can try inserting a heel grip or a thicker sock to improve the snugness of the fit.
Dirt or scuff marks on the knit upper.
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing which can damage the knit material.
Discomfort after initial wear.
Allow a short break-in period of a few wears. If discomfort persists, double-check the fit and consider if the Arch Fit® support is suitable for your foot type.
