FAQs
How do the Hands Free Slip-ins® work?
The design features a specific heel structure (Heel Pillow®) that allows you to step into the shoe without touching the back. The shoe is designed to hold its shape, making it easy to slide your foot in and out effortlessly.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for everyday comfort and light athletic activities like running and playing. They are not intended for high-impact sports that require specialized support or stability.
Can I adjust the tightness of the laces?
The laces on this model are fixed stretch laces and are not designed to be adjusted for tightness. The design relies on the overall fit of the shoe and the Heel Pillow® for a secure feel.
How long does the memory foam insole last?
The durability of the memory foam insole depends on usage. With proper care and regular wear for casual activities, it should maintain its cushioning properties for a significant period. Machine washing and air drying will help preserve its integrity.
What is the Heel Pillow®?
The Heel Pillow® is a feature integrated into the shoe's collar that provides extra cushioning and a snug fit around the heel, preventing slippage and enhancing comfort, especially with the slip-in design.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Ensure there is a little room at the toe and the heel does not slip excessively. Children's feet grow, so it's important to measure their feet periodically. The shoe should feel snug but not tight.
Are there other colors available?
Yes, the Skechers Bounder Pro series comes in various colors. Please check the Skechers product range for available options.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight
While the fixed stretch laces offer a secure fit, they are not adjustable. Ensure the correct size is selected. If the fit is slightly off, the Heel Pillow® aims to provide a snug feel.
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is positioned correctly and not folded. Try sliding the foot in smoothly rather than forcing it. The shoe may require a brief break-in period.
Material appears worn after washing
Always use a gentle cycle with cold water and air dry. Avoid harsh detergents and direct heat, which can degrade the materials over time.
Insole is not comfortable
The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is designed for comfort. If discomfort persists, ensure the correct size has been purchased. For significant issues, consult Skechers customer support.
