FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or high-impact sports?

How do I clean the sparkly laces?
The sparkly stretch laces can be gently wiped clean with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which could damage the sparkly finish.
What is the purpose of the Heel Pillow®?
The Heel Pillow® is a feature designed to provide a secure and comfortable fit by cushioning and supporting the heel area, preventing slippage and enhancing overall comfort.
Can I remove the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
Yes, the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is typically removable for cleaning or to insert custom orthotics if needed. Ensure it is completely dry before placing it back into the shoe.
How durable is the duraleather upper?
The duraleather upper is designed for durability in casual wear. Regular cleaning with a damp cloth will help maintain its appearance and longevity. Avoid exposure to extreme conditions or excessive moisture.
What does 'Hands-Free Slip-ins®' mean?
Hands-Free Slip-ins® means you can put on and take off the shoes without needing to bend down or use your hands, thanks to the specialized heel design.

Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure your socks are not too thick. For initial wears, gently flex the shoe. The Heel Pillow® may feel snug at first but will adapt with wear.
Insole feels flat or less cushioned
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may require a break-in period. If the issue persists after several wears, ensure the insole is correctly positioned and try removing and reinserting it.
Appearance of scuffs or marks on upper
Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap solution. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Shoes feel too loose or too tight
The stretch laces provide a flexible fit. For tightness, ensure the foot is positioned correctly within the shoe. For looseness, ensure the Heel Pillow® is properly cradling the heel. These trainers are designed for a slip-on fit and do not have traditional lace adjustment.
