FAQs
How do the Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins® work?
The Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins® feature a unique design with a built-in Heel Pillow® that cradles the foot. This allows your child to easily slide their foot into the shoe without needing to use their hands, bending over, or re-tying laces.
Are these trainers suitable for machine washing?
No, machine washing is not recommended for Skechers Bounder trainers. It can damage the materials, cushioning, and overall structure of the shoe. Please follow the care instructions for gentle spot cleaning.
What kind of activities are these trainers best for?
These trainers are ideal for everyday wear, including school, playground activities, casual outings, and light recreational play. Their comfort and durability make them versatile for a child's active routine.
What is the Heel Pillow®?
The Heel Pillow® is a comfortable, supportive feature integrated into the heel of the shoe. It helps to securely hold your child's foot in place, preventing slippage and adding to the overall hands-free experience and comfort.
Do I need to tie the laces on these trainers?
No, the Skechers Bounder - Simple Cute trainers feature stretch laces and an adaptive closure system that provides a secure fit without the need for tying. They are designed for easy, slip-on wear.
Is the sizing true to UK children's sizes?
Skechers generally aims for consistent sizing. It is recommended to choose your child's usual UK children's shoe size. If unsure, measure your child's foot and refer to a Skechers size chart (if available) for the best fit.
Can these trainers be worn without socks?
While the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole offers comfort, wearing socks is generally recommended to help manage moisture, reduce friction, and keep the shoes cleaner and fresher for longer, especially for active children.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel loose or slip off the heel.
Ensure the correct size has been purchased. The Heel Pillow® is designed to hold the foot securely, but an incorrect size may impact this. Check if socks are too thin or thick, affecting the fit.
Foot feels sweaty or hot after prolonged wear.
The trainers feature an Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole and a breathable mesh upper. Ensure your child is wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks. Allow the shoes to air out between uses.
Trainer appears dirty quickly, especially the mesh parts.
Due to active use, dirt accumulation is common. Gently spot clean the affected areas with a damp cloth and mild soap. Regular light cleaning can prevent stubborn stains. Avoid abrasive brushes on the mesh.
