Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The Skechers Glide-Step Pro - Waverra trainers are designed for comfort and light activity. For marathon running, specialized shoes with advanced support and cushioning tailored to long-distance running are recommended.
Can I adjust the tightness of the laces?
The laces are tied off for a secure slip-on fit. They are not designed for traditional adjustment. If a tighter or looser fit is desired, it may not be achievable with this specific lace design.
How do I clean the geometric midsole?
The geometric midsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure all soap residue is wiped away and allow the shoes to air dry completely.
Are these trainers waterproof?
These trainers feature a breathable mesh upper and are not designed to be waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions.
What does 'vegan design' mean for these trainers?
A vegan design indicates that no animal-derived materials were used in the construction of these trainers.
What is the main benefit of the Glide-Step midsole?
The Glide-Step midsole is engineered with a geometric pattern to promote a smoother stride, enhance shock absorption, and provide a more comfortable walking experience.
Can I wear these with orthotics?
The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is typically removable, which may allow space for custom orthotics. However, fit can vary, so trying them with your orthotics is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Torn or frayed stitching
For minor fraying, carefully trim loose threads with scissors. If stitching is significantly torn, repair may not be feasible and replacement might be necessary.
Unpleasant odor
Remove insoles and air them out separately. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake out thoroughly. Regular cleaning and airing can prevent recurrence.
Reduced cushioning over time
The cushioning is designed for durability, but may lessen with extensive use. Consider rotating with another pair of shoes to extend the life of the cushioning.
