When you say Skechers, the first thing that comes to mind is definitely comfort — the kind that feels like plush cloud soles under your feet. And now with the Slip-ins feature specially designed for runners, we are excited to try these out… especially since Cha Eun-woo is the ambassador. If he says lebih effortless, lebih good-looking while running…we’ll go for it. 

We tried the White Multi women’s pair from the GOrun Arch Fit 2.0 collection, and here’s how it went.

The relief of a life without loose shoelaces 

If you’ve ever jogged halfway only to realise your shoelace is flapping around like it has a life of its own… you feel our pain. Bend down, tie. Continue running. Loose again. Repeat until you’re convinced shoelaces are your enemy. With these, you literally step in and go. Hands-free, no crouching like you’re about to propose to the pavement. The heel feels secure thanks to the exclusive Heel Pillow® technology that holds the foot in place — a small detail that makes a big difference when you’re constantly in and out of your shoes.

Built for the casual runner life 

We’re not marathon people — more like a morning run people (or sometimes a brisk walk to the café counts, right?). For that, these feel great: 

• The cushioning is light and gives that soft rebound 
• There’s proper arch support, so your feet don’t feel tired too fast 
• Transitions feel smooth, especially if you’re jogging at an easy pace 

If you’re just getting into running or mainly doing short distances, this fits comfortably into that lifestyle.

The part we didn’t expect: It’s machine-washable.

This is low-key one of the best features. Instead of scrubbing dirt off after a trail run, you can just throw the shoes into the wash. It keeps things simple — and CLEAN.

The Colour? 

We personally go for the White Multi because it’s not just a plain white sneaker — the blue accents on the base give it that extra “pop” without overdoing it. But if white isn’t your vibe, there are other colour options for women too - Grey and Charcoal. And for those who love twinning — whether it’s with your partner for a matching runner look, or you just want a couple shoe moment with Cha Eun-woo in your imagination — the men’s range has its own stylish shades to pair perfectly with.

If you’re looking for a comfortable pair for everyday movement, something you can slip into without dealing with the endless shoelace struggle, and footwear that gives solid support for light runs and long walking days, then this is definitely a pair worth trying on. It won’t magically turn you into a marathon athlete overnight — but it will make your everyday steps feel a whole lot more effortless.
