FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for school sports?

The Skechers Bounder Slip-ins are great for general school wear and light activities during recess. However, for specialized or high-impact sports, we recommend shoes designed specifically for those activities to provide adequate support and protection.

How do Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins work?

The Hands Free Slip-ins feature a unique Heel Pillow design that supports the back of the foot, allowing your child to simply step into the shoe without bending down or using their hands. The Adaptive Closure and stretch laces then provide a snug, comfortable fit.

Can my child adjust the fit of these shoes?

The Bounder features an Adaptive Closure with stretch laces designed to provide a customized and secure fit that adapts to the foot. While not adjustable in the traditional tie-lace sense, they offer flexibility and a snug feel.

What is Air-Cooled Memory Foam?

Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam is a cushioned insole that provides enhanced comfort and breathability. It molds to the shape of the foot for personalized cushioning and helps regulate temperature to keep feet cool.

How often should I wash these shoes?

The frequency of washing depends on how often they are worn and how dirty they get. For active children, washing them every few weeks or as needed will help keep them fresh. Always follow the machine washable care instructions.

Are these shoes durable for active kids?

Yes, the Skechers Bounder is built with a mesh and synthetic upper designed for durability and daily wear. The construction is made to withstand the rigors of active play, while the machine washable feature ensures they can be kept clean easily.

What gender are these shoes designed for?

The product information indicates these particular shoes are designed for female children. However, the Bounder series often offers unisex designs or variants for both genders. Always check the specific product listing.

Do these shoes provide good grip?

Info needed: Information about the outsole material and tread pattern would specify grip levels. Generally, Skechers provides durable rubber outsoles suitable for everyday surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too loose or too tight.

The Adaptive Closure and stretch laces are designed for a general fit. For initial wear, ensure the foot is fully seated in the shoe, utilizing the Heel Pillow. If persistent, verify the shoe size is correct for your child's foot. Consider trying on different sizes if possible.

Foot slips out while walking.

The exclusive Heel Pillow is designed to hold the foot securely. Ensure the shoe is the correct size. If it's too large, the heel pillow may not engage properly. Check if the Adaptive Closure is positioned correctly and not obstructed.

Shoes are not as comfortable after washing.

Ensure shoes are fully air-dried before wearing. Improper drying (e.g., using a dryer) can affect the foam cushioning and material integrity. Re-check the Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole is flat and properly seated inside the shoe.

Shoes retain odors.

Utilize the machine washable feature regularly as per care instructions. Ensure shoes are thoroughly air-dried after washing and after each wear to prevent moisture buildup, which can cause odors. If persistent, consider using shoe deodorizers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup (First Use)
