FAQs
How do the Hands-Free Slip-ins® work?
The design incorporates a specially shaped heel and an expandable collar, allowing a child to step into the shoe without needing to bend down or use their hands.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The adaptive closure and flexible mesh upper offer some flexibility. However, they are designed for standard children's shoe widths. If your child has significantly wide feet, traditional lace-up shoes might offer a more customizable fit.
Can I remove the insole for washing?
The insole is typically removable for air drying, but for machine washing, it is best to follow the general care instructions and wash the entire shoe on a gentle cycle.
What is the main benefit of the Bounder Pro series?
The Bounder Pro series focuses on combining athletic performance features with easy slip-on convenience for active kids.
How do I ensure I'm buying the correct size?
It's recommended to measure your child's feet and compare them to the Skechers size chart. Children's shoe sizes can vary between brands.
Are these shoes appropriate for sports requiring ankle support?
These are trainers designed for general wear and play. For sports requiring specific ankle support, consult with a sports professional for recommendations.
Troubleshooting
Shoes are difficult to slip on initially
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is fully accessible and try inserting the foot with a slight twisting motion. The shoe will become easier to slip on with continued use.
Insole feels too firm
The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may take a short break-in period to conform to the foot. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to soften.
Color transfer on socks
While rare, some darker colors may experience minor transfer on light-colored socks. This typically reduces after the first few wears or washes. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before wearing.
