FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They offer good cushioning and support for walking but are not intended for high-impact running or athletic training.
How do I clean the cotton canvas upper?
Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cool water to spot clean the canvas. Allow the shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat.
Can I replace the Arch Fit® insole?
Yes, the Arch Fit® insole is removable and can be replaced with your own custom orthotics or insoles if desired.
Are these trainers vegan?
Yes, the Skechers Arch Fit® Arcade trainers are made with vegan materials.
What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?
It means the American Podiatric Medical Association has awarded the Seal to these shoes for having features that promote good foot health.
How do the stretch laces work?
The stretch laces provide a secure and comfortable fit without the need for traditional tying. They offer a snug feel that adapts to your foot.
What is the main benefit of the Arch Fit® system?
The Arch Fit® system provides podiatrist-certified, enhanced arch support designed to reduce pressure and provide stability throughout the day.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure the stretch laces are not overly tightened. Gently loosen them if needed. If the overall fit is too small, consider if a larger size is required.
Insole feels uncomfortable
The Arch Fit® insole is designed to mold to your foot over time. If discomfort persists, try wearing them for shorter periods initially. You can also remove the insole and wear without it or replace it with a custom orthotic.
Canvas upper is dirty
Spot clean the canvas with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher spots, use a soft brush. Always air dry.
Shoes squeak
Squeaking can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe base, or if moisture is trapped. Ensure the insole is properly seated. If the squeaking persists, try a small amount of talcum powder under the insole.
