FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash Skechers Slip-ins: Bounder Pro trainers, as this can damage the materials and cushioning. Hand wash with a damp cloth and mild soap for cleaning.
What is the benefit of Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins®?
The Hands Free Slip-ins® technology allows children to easily put on and take off the shoes without needing to bend down or use their hands, promoting independence and convenience.
How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?
Ensure there is a little room at the front of the shoe (about a thumb's width) when the child is standing. The heel should feel snug and secure within the Heel Pillow® without slipping.
Can the stretch laces be adjusted?
No, the stretch laces on this model are fixed and non-adjustable. They are designed to provide a secure fit without the need for tying.
What is the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
This is a cushioned insole designed to provide comfort and breathability, helping to keep feet cool and supported throughout the day.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Bounder Pro series generally offers a standard fit. If your child has particularly wide feet, they might find a standard trainer fit restrictive. It's best to try them on if possible.
What age group are these trainers intended for?
These trainers are designed for kids, specifically catering to younger children who benefit from the ease of slip-on footwear.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too loose or too tight
While the laces are fixed, ensure the heel is properly seated in the Heel Pillow®. If the shoe consistently feels too loose, it may not be the right fit for the child's foot shape. If too tight, check if the correct size has been selected and consider if the foot width is incompatible with the standard fit.
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe
Ensure the child is sliding their heel fully into the Heel Pillow® area. Sometimes, a slight wiggle or having the child push down with their heel can help. Ensure the shoe is the correct size; an undersized shoe will be difficult to put on.
Insole is uncomfortable or needs cleaning
The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is designed for comfort. If it feels uncomfortable, it might be a fit issue. For cleaning, gently remove the insole, hand wash with mild soap and cold water, and air dry completely before reinserting.
Tread wear on the outsole
Some wear on the outsole is normal with regular use. If excessive wear is observed quickly, check if the child is using the shoes for activities beyond their intended purpose (e.g., rough surfaces, intense sports). Ensure the shoe was purchased in the correct size to avoid excessive friction during walking.
