Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes fully waterproof?
No, they are water-repellent, meaning they resist light moisture but are not designed for full submersion.
Can I use these for long-distance hiking?
Yes, they are designed for light-to-moderate trail use and provide excellent cushioning for long walks.
How do I maintain the memory foam insole?
Avoid soaking the insoles; allow the shoes to air out after every use to prevent moisture buildup.
Does the outsole leave marks on indoor flooring?
The high-quality rubber is durable, but as with any outdoor-focused trail shoe, we recommend wiping the soles before wearing them indoors.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The lace-up design allows for adjustment, though the fit is standard for an athletic silhouette.
How do I identify if the size is correct?
You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during activity.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels too tight after walking
Memory foam expands; try loosening the laces at the midfoot and walking for a few days to allow the material to compress and mold to your foot.
Loss of traction on wet rock
Clean the Goodyear rubber outsole with water to remove accumulated dirt, as packed-in mud can reduce the shoe's grip performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Skechers perform well, begin by tightening the laces to match your foot's arch profile. Since these are constructed with memory foam, the insole will conform to your foot shape after a few wears. For care, avoid using a washing machine, which can damage the water-repellent coating and the integrity of the cushioning. Instead, wipe the upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. If the outsoles pick up mud or debris, use a soft-bristled brush to clean the treads, ensuring the traction remains effective for your next hike. Always air-dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material cracking.
