FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While these trainers offer good cushioning and support for casual wear and walking, they are not specifically designed for high-impact running. For dedicated running, Skechers offers specialized running shoe models.
How do I remove the Arch Fit® insole?
The Arch Fit® insole is designed to be removable. Gently grip the heel of the insole and pull it upwards and out of the shoe. You may need to apply slight, steady pressure.
Can I use these trainers in wet conditions?
The cotton canvas upper is not waterproof. While they can handle light splashes, they are not intended for use in heavy rain or wet environments. We recommend drying them thoroughly if they get wet.
What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?
The APMA Seal of Acceptance is awarded to products that have been evaluated by experts in podiatric care and found to be beneficial for foot health and comfortable for everyday wear.
How often should I machine wash these trainers?
Machine washing is recommended only when necessary for significant cleaning. Frequent washing can potentially wear down the materials faster. For light dirt, spot cleaning with a damp cloth is preferable.
Are there other colors available in this model?
Yes, the Skechers Arch Fit® Arcade series is available in various colors, including White, Green, Blue, and Taupe, each with its own sibling product listing.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight
Ensure the stretch laces are not overly tightened. The design allows for some flexibility; you can gently adjust the lacing area for a more relaxed fit. If the issue persists, consider if a larger size is needed or if the removable insole can be replaced with a thinner one.
Discomfort in the arch area
The Arch Fit® insole is designed for support. If you experience initial discomfort, try wearing the shoes for short periods to allow your feet to adjust. Ensure the insole is correctly seated. If discomfort continues, consult the FAQ about removable insoles.
Slight color transfer from the black canvas
This is normal with new cotton canvas items. Avoid wearing with light-colored socks until after the first few washes. Washing them separately on a cold cycle can help minimize initial color bleed.
