How does Arch Fit differ from regular GO WALK shoes?

Arch Fit adds a podiatrist-certified contoured footbed developed from foot-scan data, where standard GO WALK models use a flatter foam insole. The Simplicity 2.0 also adds Hands Free Slip-ins and a Heel Pillow.

Can I take the insole out?

Yes. The Arch Fit insole is removable, so you can swap in your own orthotic or wash the shoe more easily.

Are these good for plantar fasciitis or flat feet?

The contoured arch support and APMA acceptance make them a reasonable pick for mild arch issues, but anyone with a diagnosed condition should check with a podiatrist, since the arch is firm and not custom-molded.

Can I machine wash them?

Skechers lists the shoe as machine washable. Use cold water on a gentle cycle and air dry; do not put them in the dryer.

What is the heel height?

The heel is 1 3/4 inches, which gives a slight lift under the ULTRA GO midsole.

Do they run true to size?

The slip-in collar is snug by design to hold the heel. Try your usual size first and size up if you wear thick socks or have a wide foot.

About the Skechers GO WALK Simplicity 2.0 Mens Walking Shoes

These men's walking shoes from the Skechers GO WALK Arch Fit line use Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins for an easy fit. The Heel Pillow holds the foot securely in place. The design has the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) Seal of Acceptance.

The upper is a two-tone athletic engineered mesh with synthetic overlays and a lace-up front. Inside is a removable Arch Fit insole with a contoured footbed and podiatrist-certified arch support. It was developed with 20 years of data and 120,000 unweighted foot scans. The insole helps mold to the foot to reduce shock and increase weight dispersion.
