Full details

These shoes are also machine washable.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Skechers Glide-Step - Stargaze shoes are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They provide good cushioning for walking but do not offer the specialized support and stability required for running or high-impact athletic activities.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the Skechers size guide for accurate measurements. Most users find them true to size, but individual foot shapes can vary. The Heel Pillow™ helps secure the foot, so ensure it feels comfortable around your heel.
Can I put these shoes in the dryer?
No, it is recommended to air dry the shoes after machine washing. High heat from a dryer can damage the materials and affect the shoe's structure and comfort.
What does 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' mean?
This means the shoes are designed to be put on and taken off without needing to bend down or use your hands. The structure of the heel and collar allows you to simply slide your foot in.
Are these shoes appropriate for work?
These shoes are best suited for casual work environments where comfort and ease of wear are prioritized. They may not be appropriate for formal settings or jobs requiring specific safety footwear.
What is the benefit of the geometric midsole?
The geometric Glide-Step® midsole is engineered to provide enhanced shock absorption and promote a smoother, more fluid stride, contributing to overall comfort during walking.
Are there other color options available?
Yes, the Glide-Step series, including variations of the Stargaze model, is available in multiple colors such as white/grey and black, in addition to the described brown.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Check your usual shoe size and compare it with the product's size chart. Ensure the heel pillow is correctly engaging your heel. Some initial break-in may be required for a perfect fit.
Difficulty slipping shoes on.
Ensure the back of the shoe is clear and your heel is positioned correctly to engage the Heel Pillow™. Try sliding your foot in smoothly without forcing it.
Reduced cushioning over time.
While the memory foam is durable, its cushioning properties can diminish with extensive use. For best results, follow care instructions to maintain material integrity. If significant degradation occurs, consider replacement.
Machine wash results in material damage.
Always use a gentle cycle with cold water and air dry. Avoid high heat or tumble drying, which can harm the materials and adhesives.
