FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The Glide-Step Altus - Fast Lane trainers are designed for comfort and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning for light jogging, they may not provide the advanced support and stability required for long-distance running or competitive racing.
How do the 'tied-off stretch laces' work?
The stretch laces are non-functional and are primarily for aesthetic purposes, giving the appearance of traditional laces. The shoe's secure fit is achieved through the slip-in design and the Heel Pillow™.
Can I put these shoes in the dryer?
No, you should not put these trainers in a dryer. Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle and always air dry them to maintain their shape and material integrity.
What makes the 'Glide-Step' midsole unique?
The Glide-Step® midsole is engineered to provide smooth, responsive cushioning and a stable feel with each step, enhancing overall walking comfort.
Are these shoes vegan?
Yes, the Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins®: Glide-Step Altus - Fast Lane is designed with a sporty vegan slip-on construction.
How do I clean the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
The insole can be washed along with the rest of the shoe in the machine on a gentle cycle with cold water. Ensure it is completely air-dried before wearing again.
What is the Heel Pillow™?
The Heel Pillow™ is a cushioning element integrated into the heel collar of the shoe. It provides extra comfort and a secure, padded feel around the ankle area.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
The stretch laces are decorative; ensure you are slipping your foot in fully. The Heel Pillow™ should provide a snug fit. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe's structure doesn't suit your foot shape.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the Heel Pillow™ area is not obstructed. Gently pull the heel tab if needed. If the shoe consistently feels difficult to get on, it might be too small or the entry is narrower than expected for your foot.
Insole feels flat or less cushioned over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may compress with significant use. Consider purchasing compatible insoles for added cushioning if needed, ensuring they fit within the shoe without compromising the slip-on function.
Mesh upper shows signs of wear or dirt
Refer to the care instructions for machine washing. For minor spots, use a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods that could damage the mesh.
