FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Skechers Glide-Step - Stargaze is designed for casual wear and walking. While they offer good cushioning, they lack the specific support and stability features required for running.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the engineered mesh and the cushioning insoles. Hand wash gently with a damp cloth and mild soap, and air dry.
What does 'Hands-Free Slip-Ins®' mean?
It means you can put on and take off the shoes without bending down or using your hands. The design, including the Heel Pillow™, allows your foot to slide in and out effortlessly.
Are these shoes waterproof?
These shoes are not waterproof. The engineered mesh upper is breathable but will allow water to pass through. They are best suited for dry conditions.
How does the Glide-Step® midsole benefit my walk?
The geometric design of the Glide-Step® midsole provides enhanced cushioning and a smoother transition from heel strike to toe-off, reducing impact and promoting a more comfortable and efficient walking experience.
What are the insoles made of?
The insoles are made with Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam®, offering breathable comfort and a cushioned feel that conforms to your foot shape.
Are these shoes available in different widths?
This specific model, Skechers Glide-Step - Stargaze (UK Size 3, Grey), is listed with standard width. Availability of other widths may vary by retailer and specific product batch.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping shoes on initially
While designed for hands-free use, the Heel Pillow™ may require a few wears to fully conform to your heel. Ensure your socks are not too thick. Try sliding your foot in at a slightly different angle during the first few uses.
Insole feels less cushioned over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may compress slightly with regular use. Ensure the insole is clean and dry, as moisture can affect its performance. For significant loss of cushioning, consider replacing the insole with a compatible one.
Mesh upper shows signs of wear or discoloration
Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap as per care instructions. Do not machine wash or dry.
Shoes feel slippery on certain surfaces
The outsole is designed for casual wear. For slippery conditions, exercise caution. Ensure the outsole is free from mud or debris, which can reduce traction. The Glide-Step® sole provides grip on typical urban and indoor surfaces.

Care: To maintain the quality and appearance of your Skechers Glide-Step - Stargaze shoes:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the engineered mesh upper with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the Glide-Step® midsole and outsole. Ensure all dirt and debris are removed.
