FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Skechers Arch Fit Arcade trainers are designed for casual wear and walking. They are not intended for high-impact running or strenuous athletic training, as they lack the specific support and cushioning required for such activities.
How do I know if the Arch Fit® insole is right for my foot?
The Arch Fit® system is designed to provide enhanced support for the arch. Most users find it comfortable and beneficial for reducing foot fatigue. If you have very flat feet or exceptionally high arches, it's recommended to try them on to assess comfort.
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 or preferred orthotics if needed.
How often should I machine wash these trainers?
Machine washing is recommended only when necessary to clean the shoes, typically when they show visible dirt or odor. Over-washing can potentially reduce the lifespan of the materials.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the Skechers Arch Fit Arcade trainers feature a cotton canvas upper, which is breathable but not waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions.
What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?
It signifies that the American Podiatric Medical Association has reviewed the product and found it to be beneficial for foot health and promotes proper foot function.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is made from a breathable cotton canvas material.
Troubleshooting
Slightly tight fit on first wear
Wear the shoes around the house for a short period to allow them to naturally conform to your feet. The cotton canvas and Arch Fit® insole will adapt.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Gently pull the heel tab and loosen the stretch laces near the opening to create more space. The stretch laces are designed for flexibility.
Insole feels too firm or high
The Arch Fit® insole is designed for support. If it feels uncomfortable, try removing it and wearing the shoe without it or with a thinner aftermarket insole, though this will reduce the intended arch support.
