Product Information
Full details
The Skechers Slip-ins: Glide-Step Altus - Fast Lane Sneaker is designed for active adults seeking a comfortable, sporty, and easy-to-wear trainer. Its key benefit is the Hands-Free Slip-ins® technology, allowing for effortless on-and-off, complemented by superior cushioning for all-day wear. A potential caveat is the specific fit, as slip-on styles may not suit everyone's preference for a secured lace-up feel. This vegan trainer features an engineered mesh upper, Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole, and a Glide-Step® midsole, making it ideal for everyday activities.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While these trainers offer good cushioning for walking and light activity, they are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. For dedicated running, a shoe with more specific support and a secure lace-up fit is recommended.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
Refer to the Skechers sizing chart. The Slip-ins design offers a relaxed fit, so if you are between sizes, consider sizing down for a more snug feel, or up if you prefer more room.
Can the laces be adjusted?
The laces on this model are decorative and tied off, meaning they cannot be adjusted for a tighter or looser fit. The shoe relies on the slip-on design and internal cushioning for comfort.
What does 'vegan' mean in this context?
It means that no animal products or by-products were used in the manufacturing of these shoes.
How often should I wash my trainers?
Wash your trainers only when they appear visibly dirty or develop an odor. Over-washing can potentially degrade the materials and cushioning over time.
What is the benefit of the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® midsole is engineered to provide a smooth, rolling sensation with each step, contributing to a lighter and more comfortable walking experience.
Can I use bleach when washing?
No, you should never use bleach or harsh cleaning agents. Use only a mild detergent and cold water on a gentle cycle for machine washing.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or slip off the heel.
Ensure your heel is fully settled into the Heel Pillow®. The slip-on design offers a relaxed fit; if significant slippage occurs, consider socks or trying a different Skechers model with adjustable laces.
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe.
Ensure the Heel Pillow® area is clear and not obstructed. Try a slight twisting motion as you slide your foot in. If the shoe is new, it might require a few wears to break in.
Reduced cushioning over time.
While the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® is durable, cushioning can diminish with extensive use. Consider replacing the insoles if you notice a significant loss of comfort after prolonged wear.
Machine washing leaves residue.
Use only a small amount of mild detergent and ensure the washing machine is not overloaded. Always air dry; do not use the dryer which can damage the materials and cushioning.
