Full details
The Skechers Ultra Flex 3.0 - Smooth Step trainers are designed for active kids who value both independence and all-day comfort. Featuring the signature Hands Free Slip-ins technology, these shoes allow children to put them on without needing to bend down or tie laces, making them an ideal choice for busy mornings or school days. While the machine-washable knit upper offers incredible convenience and breathability, parents should note that the fabric is best suited for casual and light athletic use rather than intensive outdoor sports.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, Skechers generally fit true to standard children's sizing, but the Stretch Fit knit allows for a forgiving, snug feel.
Can I put these in the dryer?
No, you should never put Skechers in the dryer. High heat can melt the adhesive and damage the foam insoles. Air drying is essential.
Are they waterproof?
No, the knit upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or light-weather conditions.
What if my child has wide feet?
The Stretch Fit engineered knit upper is designed to be flexible and accommodating, which often provides a comfortable fit for various foot widths.
Do I need to tie any laces?
No, this is a slip-on design. There are no functional laces to tie, making it a true hands-free experience.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels loose at the heel
Ensure the child is fully stepping into the heel cup; the Heel Pillow should sit snugly against the back of the foot. If it remains loose, the size may be too large.
The knit material has picked up dirt
Spot clean with a soft brush and mild soap. For deeper cleaning, follow the machine washing instructions provided in the care section.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear immediately out of the box. To ensure the longest lifespan for the shoes, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Remove debris from the soles, place shoes in a pillowcase or laundry bag, and wash on a gentle cycle using cold water.
- Drying: Always air dry the shoes. Do not place them in the clothes dryer as high heat can damage the memory foam and the integrity of the knit fabric.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation or fading over time.
