FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
No, the Skechers Slip-ins Relaxed Fit: Meroe - Alden are designed for casual wear, walking, and light activities. They do not provide the support or structure needed for running or intense sports.
How do I clean the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
The insole can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow it to air dry completely before wearing the shoes again. For best results, follow the general care instructions.
Can I adjust the laces on these shoes?
These shoes feature fixed stretch laces that are non-adjustable. They are designed to work with the slip-on functionality and maintain a secure fit.
What makes the 'Hands-Free Slip-ins®' technology unique?
The Hands-Free Slip-ins® technology includes Skechers' signature Heel Pillow® which cradles the foot, allowing you to step in easily without bending down or using your hands.
Is the Goodyear® rubber outsole suitable for wet surfaces?
Yes, the Goodyear® rubber outsole is engineered to provide enhanced traction and stability on both wet and dry conditions, making them suitable for use near water.
What is the benefit of the 'Relaxed Fit®' design?
The Relaxed Fit® design provides a more spacious interior, offering extra room in the toe box and forefoot for enhanced comfort during extended wear.
How should I store these shoes when not in use?
It's recommended to store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to help maintain their material integrity and prevent odor buildup.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
The Relaxed Fit® design offers a roomier fit. If they feel too loose, consider wearing thicker socks. If they feel too tight, ensure you are wearing the correct size, as the fixed laces do not allow for adjustment.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure your heel is fully back against the Heel Pillow®. Try sliding your foot in smoothly without forcing it. Wearing thinner socks might also help initially.
Traction seems reduced
Clean the Goodyear® rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt, oil, or debris that could be affecting grip.
Insole feels uncomfortable
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may take a short period to conform to your foot. If discomfort persists, check for any wrinkles or debris under the insole, or consider using a different insole (though this may affect the slip-in feature).
