Product Information
Full details
The Skechers Summits series is designed for adults seeking a perfect blend of comfort and convenience in an athletic, sporty sneaker. These trainers feature a lightweight, slip-on design with a soft mesh knit upper, making them ideal for casual wear, walking, and light exercise. While they offer excellent cushioning through their signature memory foam technology, users should note that the slip-on structure with bungee laces is not adjustable, so securing the correct fit from the start is essential for optimal support.

FAQs
Can I replace the bungee laces with standard shoelaces?
The bungee laces are typically integrated into the shoe's structure. Modifying them is not recommended as it may damage the integrity of the slip-on design.
Are these shoes machine washable?
While some Skechers models are machine washable, it is safest to check the label on your specific pair. If not specified, stick to hand-cleaning to preserve the memory foam.
Are they true to size?
Most users find the Summits series fits true to size, though the mesh upper provides a forgiving, flexible fit that works well for various foot widths.
Do these provide arch support?
They offer moderate arch support through the contoured memory foam footbed, but they are not intended as medical-grade orthotics.
Can I wear these for gym workouts?
They are suitable for light workouts like walking or elliptical use, but they lack the heavy-duty lateral support needed for intense weightlifting or cross-training.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty putting on the shoe
Use a shoehorn to help guide your heel into the collar without crushing the back of the trainer.
Footbed feels less supportive over time
Memory foam can compress; try removing the insert for a few hours to allow it to recover, or replace with an aftermarket orthotic.
Outsole collecting debris
Use a soft-bristled brush to clear out the treads of the rubber outsole to maintain traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Since the Skechers Summits utilize a bungee-lace system, no setup is required; simply slip them on and ensure the tongue is positioned correctly. To maintain the life of your trainers, it is recommended to avoid machine washing with harsh detergents. Instead, spot clean the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the memory foam or damage the rubber outsole. If the footbed begins to hold moisture, remove the insert if possible and allow it to dry completely in a well-ventilated area to maintain freshness.
