Product Information
Full details
The Skechers Slip-ins: Glide-Step Altus - Turn Out trainers are designed for adult males seeking convenient, comfortable footwear for everyday wear. Their key benefit is the hands-free slip-in design combined with a geometric cushioned midsole for a smooth stride. A potential caveat is that the mesh upper might offer less water resistance than other materials. These trainers feature a vegan construction, a breathable mesh upper with hotmelt overlays, a supportive Heel Pillow, and an Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and walking. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running activities.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can be removed if you wish to replace it with a different insole or orthotic, though it is designed for optimal comfort as is.
How long does the machine washable feature last?
The machine washable feature is a design aspect of the shoe. Following care instructions (cold wash, gentle cycle, air dry) will help maintain the shoe's integrity through multiple washes.
What does 'Vegan' mean in the product description?
Vegan materials mean that the shoes are made without any animal-derived ingredients or by-products.
Is the fit true to size?
Generally, Skechers footwear fits true to size. However, it's always recommended to refer to sizing charts and consider your foot width for the best fit.
How does the Heel Pillow™ work?
The Heel Pillow™ is an internal comfort feature designed to cushion and secure the heel, providing a snug fit and preventing slippage.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially.
The stretch-laced design may require a brief break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to adapt to your foot shape.
Difficulty slipping foot in.
Ensure the Heel Pillow™ area is clear and there are no obstructions. Gently pull the heel tab while slipping your foot in. The fit may also be snug initially.
Reduced cushioning effect over time.
The cushioning may decrease with extensive use. For optimal comfort, consider replacing the insoles if significant wear is noticed after prolonged use.
Faint odor after washing.
Ensure the shoes are completely dry before storing or wearing. Using a shoe deodorizer or baking soda inside the shoes can help absorb odors during drying.
