Skechers trainers are popular for commuting, running errands, walking and casual outfits. However, a soft insole or sporty appearance does not tell you everything. The right choice depends on the fit, sole, material and how you plan to use the shoes. With the checks below, you can avoid choosing a pair that feels uncomfortable after a short time or does not suit your daily routine.
Trainers with Memory Foam often feel soft when you try them on. That does not automatically mean the fit is right for your foot. Also pay attention to the width, heel support and available sizes. An insole may also be fixed in place, giving you fewer options for adjusting the inside of the shoe.
Sizing can vary between models. According to the product specifications, some models have a standard fit, while others come up large. For example, the Skechers Graceful - Get Connected 12615-BKRG is listed as a model that comes up large, with one size smaller recommended. Always check the size advice on the product page and see whether the shoe is available in width D or G.
Low trainers with a rubber or synthetic sole are suitable for everyday use, but not every version is designed for intensive sport, long walks on uneven ground or wet weather. A treaded sole, water-repellent finish or mesh upper provides an indication of how the shoe is intended to be used, but it does not turn a lifestyle model into a specialist running shoe.
For many Dutch feet, a standard fit is a practical starting point. Also check the shoe width:
For example, the Skechers BOBS Geo-New Aesthetics 117417-TAN has a standard fit, width D and lace fastening. The Skechers Summits - Leopard Spot 149037-NVHP is listed in width G and has a pull tab for easier entry.
Do not just look at the thickness of the sole. Check the material and tread as well. Rubber is used in various models and can provide grip on everyday surfaces. EVA and PU are lightweight materials often found in midsoles or soles. A waffle or tread pattern can help with grip, but actual suitability depends on the surface, wear and weather conditions.
A treaded sole is practical for wet cycle paths or shopping streets. For long walks on paved roads, flexibility and a suitable fit are at least as important as a thick sole.
Textile and mesh are lightweight materials that can feel comfortable for everyday use. Synthetic material or leather is generally easier to clean with a damp cloth. Always check the care instructions:
If you are looking for black trainers, they are often a more practical colour for everyday use. A beige or navy model may work better with a lighter casual wardrobe.

For women, Skechers BOBS, Graceful, Summits and GO WALK are common options within the collection. BOBS models often have a casual look, while Summits and GO WALK place more emphasis on a sporty shape. For men, options include Skechers Slip-Ins Summits - High Range and Slip-Ins Parson - Oswin. With men’s models, pay particular attention to the width D, fastening and sole material.
Skechers Slip-Ins are convenient if you do not want to tie laces. However, a slip-on model should fit securely around the heel. If you want maximum adjustability, laces are a better choice. For an everyday black trainer, care is also easier than with lighter colours, but black textile still needs to be cleaned according to the recommended method.
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. Many popular models have a standard fit, but some Graceful and BOBS versions come up large according to the product information. Always check the specific size advice, width and any foot length measurements in centimetres.
Some models are designed for everyday walking and feature a flexible sole, mesh upper or Memory Foam insole. That does not automatically make them suitable for every long walk. Consider the sole tread, grip, fit and the terrain you will be walking on. For intensive sport or technical terrain, a model with suitable sports specifications is the wiser choice.
Follow the instructions for each product. Machine washing is only suitable when it is expressly stated. Many textile or leather models should be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air-dry and do not use bleach or direct heat.
