FAQs
Are these shoes good for running?
The Glide-Step Altus - Fast Lane is designed for comfort and casual wear. While suitable for light jogging, they may not provide the specialized support and cushioning required for serious or long-distance running.
How do the 'tied-off' laces work?
The stretch laces are decorative and are permanently tied off. They contribute to the shoe's secure fit without requiring manual adjustment.
Can I put these shoes in the dryer?
No, you should not put these shoes in a machine dryer. Always air dry them to prevent damage to the materials and cushioning.
What makes these shoes 'Hands Free Slip-ins®'?
They feature a unique design with a padded heel counter (Heel Pillow®) and a specific shape that allows you to slide your foot in easily without bending down or using your hands.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The engineered mesh upper offers some flexibility. However, if you have significantly wide feet, the standard fit might feel snug. Checking customer reviews or trying them on in person is recommended.
How often should I wash them?
Wash them as needed when they appear dirty or develop an odor. Regular cleaning will help maintain their appearance and freshness.
What does 'vegan' mean for these shoes?
It means that no animal-derived materials were used in the construction of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose
While the laces are not adjustable, ensure the Heel Pillow® is properly cradling your heel. If the shoe consistently feels too loose, consider trying a half-size down if available, or using thicker socks.
Slight odor after wear
Due to the breathable materials and memory foam, odors can sometimes develop. Machine wash the shoes according to the care instructions. You can also place them in a well-ventilated area with baking soda overnight.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure your heel is sliding into the Heel Pillow® area. Sometimes a slight angle or a gentle pull on the heel tab can assist. The shoe is designed to be snug initially but should offer ease of entry once broken in.
