Skechers trainers are popular with women, children and parents looking for one pair of shoes for school, work, walking or a casual outfit. However, a soft insole does not automatically mean that a model suits your foot or intended use. This is especially true of black Skechers trainers, where it is worth looking beyond colour and brand name.
The most common buying mistakes usually come down to three pitfalls:
When looking at women’s Skechers trainers, do not focus only on the EU size. Also check the stated fit and shoe width. In the available product information, for example, width D is listed for a standard fit. The Skechers Arch Fit-Big Appeal 149057-BBK has a standard fit and width G, which is relevant if you need more room.
Also pay attention to the specific sizing advice:
If you are unsure, measure both feet at the end of the day and compare the measurements with the size guide for your chosen model. If you are looking for trainers in size 36, trainers in size 37, trainers in size 38 or trainers in size 40, it is best to follow the model-specific advice rather than relying solely on previous purchases.
The term Memory Foam refers to the material or construction of the insole, not to a guaranteed fit for every foot. According to the product description, the Flex Appeal 3.0 and Arch Fit-Big Appeal feature an Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole. The Graceful models have a fixed Memory Foam insole.
Also check whether the insole is removable. For the models mentioned, the insole is listed as non-removable. This may be important if you use your own insoles.
For short daily walks and commuting, casual models are often sufficient. For longer walks, it is better to look for:
Skechers walking shoes and Skechers sports shoes are not automatically the same. A model for light walking may have different features from a shoe designed for intensive training. The Skechers Hillcrest - Pure Escapade 149821-BKMT, for example, is described as suitable for walking on light terrain, with a treaded sole and a water-repellent option. The product information does not mention any specific cushioning technology.
Many black models have a textile or mesh upper. This can make them lightweight and breathable, but they require suitable care. According to the product information, the Flex Appeal 3.0 and Graceful - Get Connected can be carefully machine washed: on a cold, delicate programme, inside a laundry bag and air-dried only.
Other models must not be put in the washing machine:
Skechers vegan trainers are a separate option for anyone who wishes to avoid animal-derived materials. The Bobs Geo-New Aesthetics is listed as 100% vegan in the product information. Always check the material details for other models; a black appearance does not mean that the materials used are the same.

We have put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
It varies by model. The Microspec Texlor and Summits 149037 BKRG are listed as true to size. The Flex Appeal, Arch Fit-Big Appeal and Graceful - Get Connected come up large according to the product information. Always check the size guide and the specific advice.
Memory Foam mainly tells you about the insole. For long walks, you should also consider the sole, fit, width, heel fastening and tread. A casual model with a soft insole is not automatically a walking shoe for intensive use.
Follow the care label for the model. Some textile models can be washed on a cold, delicate programme and must be air-dried. Other models, such as the Bobs Geo-New Aesthetics and Hillcrest, should only be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap according to the product information. Do not use a tumble dryer or direct heat unless the manufacturer explicitly permits it.
