FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and walking. They feature lightweight cushioning but are not engineered for the specific support and durability required for running.
Can I remove the Arch Fit® insole?
Yes, the Arch Fit® insole is removable. This allows for easy cleaning of the shoe and the option to replace it with your own custom orthotics or a different insole if desired.
How do I wash these trainers?
You can machine wash them using a gentle cycle with cold water. After washing, allow them to air dry completely and do not put them in a tumble dryer.
Are these shoes entirely vegan?
Yes, the Skechers Arch Fit® Arcade - Meet Ya There Sneaker features a vegan design, meaning no animal-derived materials are used in its construction.
What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?
The APMA Seal of Acceptance is awarded to products that have been vetted by podiatric professionals and are found to be beneficial for foot health and promote quality craftsmanship.
How is the sizing for this model?
The sizing is standard for Skechers trainers. It is recommended to refer to the Skechers sizing chart and consider trying them on if possible to ensure the best fit, especially as this model is 9 Wide.
What is the primary benefit of the Arch Fit® system?
The Arch Fit® system provides podiatrist-certified arch support, designed to help distribute weight evenly, reduce pressure on the ball of the foot, and offer enhanced comfort and stability for your feet.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
The stretch laces offer a degree of adaptability. If too tight, try gently stretching the laces. If too loose, ensure the heel is properly seated. For a more customized fit, consider replacing the stretch laces with traditional laces (sold separately).
Insole feels uncomfortable
The Arch Fit® insole is designed for support. If it feels uncomfortable, ensure it is correctly positioned. As the insole is removable, you can replace it with your preferred aftermarket insole if necessary.
Material shows wear after washing
Always follow the care instructions: use cold water and a gentle cycle. Air dry the shoes completely away from direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as heat can degrade the materials.
Slight color transfer
For the first few wears, there might be a slight transfer of color, especially if the shoes get wet. This is normal for dyed canvas. Wearing darker socks can minimize any temporary effect.
