Full details
These Skechers Slip-ins: Bounder Pro trainers in blue, size 11.5 UK, are designed for active kids seeking effortless comfort.

FAQs
How do Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins® work?
The design includes a unique heel structure and collar that allows you to slide your foot in without touching the shoe with your hands, thanks to the 'Heel Pillow®' which holds its shape.
Are these suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for everyday wear, walking, and casual play. For high-impact sports, specialized athletic footwear is recommended for optimal support and performance.
Can the insoles be replaced?
The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insoles are often removable and can be cleaned. If they become worn, you can typically replace them with compatible insoles of a similar thickness.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Measure your child's foot length and compare it to Skechers' sizing chart. Ensure there is a little room for growth, but not so much that the shoe is too loose or causes tripping.
What is the 'Heel Pillow®'?
The Heel Pillow® is a feature that provides extra cushioning and support around the heel, helping to secure the foot comfortably within the shoe and contributing to the slip-in design.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing and air drying will preserve the materials and shape of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Ensure the correct size has been selected. The stretch laces provide a snug fit; for minor adjustments, try inserting a thin insole or ensure the Heel Pillow® is comfortably engaging the heel.
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe.
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is fully extended and not compressed. Gently pull the back of the shoe slightly outwards as you slide your foot in.
Insole feels uncomfortable or flat.
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may take a short break-in period. If discomfort persists, consider if a different shoe model might be a better fit for the foot shape.
Shoes are dirty and need cleaning.
Follow the recommended care instructions: use a damp cloth for the upper and hand wash removable insoles. Allow to air dry completely.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the mesh and synthetic upper. For tougher spots, a mild soap can be used sparingly.
