Skechers trainers come in a wide range of styles, from lightweight women’s trainers with Memory Foam to children’s shoes with hook-and-loop fastenings and Skechers Slip-Ins for easy on-and-off. That choice is useful, but it can also make comparing styles more difficult. An appealing photo or a word like “comfort” doesn’t automatically tell you whether a shoe will suit your feet, your needs or your size.
Pay particular attention to the fastening, sole, material and sizing information. That way, you’re less likely to end up leaving your new pair in the cupboard after just a few weeks.
Black Skechers trainers go with plenty of outfits, while beige or brightly coloured styles add a sportier touch. But colour tells you nothing about fit or grip. Always check whether the shoe has a standard width, whether the sole is made from rubber, EVA, PU or plastic, and whether the insole is removable.
According to the product description, Skechers trainers with Memory Foam can offer extra cushioning and comfort. That doesn’t mean every foot will get the same level of support. A fixed insole may also be less practical if you use your own orthotic insoles. Check whether the insole is removable, and look at the stated shoe width, such as D or G.
Laces usually let you adjust the fit yourself, but they take longer to put on. Skechers Slip-Ins and styles without fastenings are quicker to slip on. For children, Skechers trainers with hook-and-loop fastenings and elastic laces may be more practical for school or sport. Just make sure the fastening holds the shoe securely around the foot.
Start with the size guide on the product page. A style described as having a “standard fit” won’t necessarily fit the same as another style from the same brand. For example, the range includes styles described in the product specifications as coming up large, such as the Skechers Graceful - Get Connected. Size 37 is listed as coming up large, with advice to choose one size smaller.
Other styles, such as the Skechers BOBS Geo-New Aesthetics and several children’s shoes, are described as true to size. The Skechers Flex Glow 90542L, on the other hand, is listed as coming up small. So don’t just go by your usual EU size: check the size advice for each product too.
For everyday wear in the Netherlands, a rubber outsole is a practical feature to look for. Check the tread, too. A flat sole may feel comfortable indoors and on easy city routes, while a treaded sole may offer more support on light walking trails. This doesn’t guarantee grip on wet or slippery surfaces: conditions, wear and the ground itself all make a difference.
For children, a flexible sole and a secure fastening are important for playing and walking. According to the product information, styles such as the Microspec Texlor have a rubber outsole and elastic laces with a hook-and-loop fastening.
Textile or mesh uppers can feel light and more breathable than fully enclosed materials. Leather styles have a different look and need different care. Always check the cleaning instructions. Several Skechers trainers must not be machine-washed and should be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Other styles are listed as machine-washable in the product description.
A fixed insole can make the shoes ready to wear straight away, but offers less flexibility. Some styles have a removable insole. This matters if you need extra room or want to use your own insoles.
Why it suits this type of user: A black, low-cut women’s trainer with laces is easy to pair with everyday outfits. Its standard fit and fixed insole make the product specifications straightforward.
The product page clearly lists a rubber sole, laces, pull tabs and a standard D width. It also describes the style as 100% vegan; this is a product specification, not a judgement on its overall environmental impact.

We’ve put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
It varies by style. Many selected styles are described as true to size, but some come up large or small. Always check the size advice on the product page and compare it with the size guide.
According to the product information, some styles are designed for everyday wear or walking on light terrain. Check the sole, tread, upper material and insole. A casual trainer isn’t automatically suitable for long walks on rough ground, so make sure its construction is right for the route you plan to walk.
Follow the care instructions for each style. Many textile Skechers trainers must not be machine-washed and can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Some styles can be machine-washed on a gentle, cold cycle. Not every material can withstand the same treatment, so don’t use the same cleaning method for every pair.
