Full details
The Skechers Glide-Step Altus trainers are ideal for active adults who prioritize a blend of athletic performance and modern aesthetic. These trainers offer the significant benefit of a smooth, energy-returning stride thanks to integrated Glide-Step technology and superior cushioning, though users should note that as a performance shoe, they are best suited for walking and casual daily wear rather than high-intensity technical sports.

FAQs
Can these shoes be worn without socks?
While the interior is comfortable, wearing moisture-wicking socks is recommended to prevent sweat buildup and extend the life of the internal foam.
How often should I wash these trainers?
Only wash them when visibly soiled. Frequent machine washing can eventually break down adhesives, so spot cleaning is preferred for minor dust or marks.
Is the Glide-Step technology suitable for arch support?
The memory foam provides contouring support, but if you have specific medical requirements for arch support, you may wish to swap the factory insoles for specialized orthotics.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the polyester upper is breathable and will allow water to penetrate. They are best suited for dry conditions.
Does the colour fade after machine washing?
Using cold water and a gentle detergent will help preserve the vibrant green and pink tones. Always avoid bleach.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels slightly loose in the heel
Consider wearing a slightly thicker athletic sock to fill volume, or ensure the slip-in heel counter is positioned correctly.
Insoles feel damp after machine washing
Air dry for at least 24 hours. Placing them near a fan can help speed up the process without applying heat.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Exceptionally easy to put on and take off with the slip-in design
- High-level comfort for all-day standing or walking
- Machine washable for easy hygiene maintenance
- Lightweight construction reduces foot fatigue
Cons
- Specific sizing (UK 4) may not accommodate all foot shapes without a trial fit
- Not intended for high-impact athletic training or technical trail running
- The vibrant colourway may show dirt more easily than darker models
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Skechers Glide-Step Altus trainers remain in peak condition, follow these care and setup guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you are wearing the appropriate socks for your activity level. Since these are UK size 4, verify the fit allows for a thumb's width of space at the front.
- Cleaning: To machine wash, remove the insoles if possible, place the shoes in a laundry bag, and use a delicate cycle with cold water. Always air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the foam.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as this can degrade the colour vibrancy and materials.
