FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running or intense workouts?
The Skechers BOBS Sport™ Skillz - Too Essential trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light activities like walking. They may not provide the necessary support and cushioning for high-impact sports or rigorous training.
How do I clean the Skechers Memory Foam™ insole?
The insole can be spot cleaned with a mild soap and water solution. It's best to use a damp cloth and allow the insole to air dry completely before wearing the shoes again.
Are these shoes genuinely 'hands-free'?
Yes, they feature Skechers Hands-Free Slip-Ins® technology, allowing you to put them on and take them off without needing to bend down or use your hands.
What does 'BOBS® from Skechers®' mean?
This signifies that a portion of the proceeds from the sale of these shoes goes towards helping animals in need, supporting various pet adoption and shelter programs.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash or tumble dry these trainers. Cleaning should be done by hand using a damp cloth and mild soap for specific areas. Air drying is essential.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The engineered knit upper is breathable but not waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions and may not offer protection against heavy rain or wet surfaces.
What is the Heel Pillow™ feature?
The Heel Pillow™ is an internal cushioned pad located at the back of the shoe, designed to provide extra comfort, secure the heel, and prevent slippage.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially.
The engineered knit upper will stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them with thin socks for a short period to help them conform to your foot shape. If still uncomfortable, consider the adjustable laces for a looser fit.
Difficulty slipping foot in.
Ensure the Heel Pillow™ area is clear and the back of the shoe is fully open. Try a slight twisting motion as you slide your foot in. The design is intended to be snug but accessible.
Insole feels less cushioned over time.
The Memory Foam™ may compress slightly with regular use. Ensure the insoles are clean and dry. For a noticeable difference, consider replacing the insoles with new Skechers insoles or other compatible cushioned insoles.
Surface dirt on the knit upper.
Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. For tougher spots, use a very mild soap solution and follow up with a clean damp cloth. Always allow to air dry.
