FAQs
What is the main advantage of the Hands Free Slip-ins® feature?
The Hands Free Slip-ins® feature allows you to put on and take off the shoes without bending down or using your hands, offering significant convenience.
How does the Glide-Step® design improve the walking experience?
The Glide-Step® geometric design is engineered to provide a smooth transition from heel to toe, offering responsive support and a comfortable stride with every step.
Are these trainers suitable for running or high-impact sports?
These trainers are designed for maximum cushioning and comfort for walking, casual wear, and light exercise. While they offer good shock absorption, they are not specifically engineered for the demands of high-impact sports or competitive running.
How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?
Refer to the sizing chart and measure your foot. The UK size 8 mentioned is specific to this variant. Ensure a comfortable fit with a little room in the toe box, and the heel should feel secure without slipping.
What is the purpose of the Goodyear® Performance Outsole?
The Goodyear® Performance Outsole is designed to provide enhanced traction and durability, ensuring a stable and confident grip on a variety of surfaces.
Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?
The anti-slip outsole offers good traction, but the engineered knit upper is not waterproof. They are suitable for light rain, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to wet feet.
What makes the Skechers Max Cushioning® different?
The Max Cushioning® platform is Skechers' technology designed to maximize shock absorption and energy return, providing an elevated level of comfort and support throughout the day.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially.
The engineered knit upper and cushioning are designed to mold to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and achieve a more comfortable fit.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness.
Ensure the insoles are clean and dry. The cushioning technology may also require a break-in period. If the issue persists, check for any debris trapped in the Glide-Step® geometric design.
Slipping on certain surfaces.
While the Goodyear® Performance Outsole offers high traction, extremely wet or slick surfaces can still pose a challenge. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris, which can sometimes impede grip.
Difficulty slipping foot in.
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is in its proper position. Gently pull the heel tab to widen the opening. The shoe is designed for a snug, secure fit once on.
