FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The Skechers Parallel Slip Ins are designed with a standard fit. While the knit upper offers some flexibility, they may not be ideal for individuals who typically require wide-width footwear.
How do the Hands Free Slip-ins® work?
The innovative design includes a built-in Heel Pillow® which provides structure and support at the heel, allowing you to slide your foot in effortlessly without bending down or using your hands.
Can I wear these sandals in the rain?
While the knit upper may offer some water resistance, these sandals are best suited for dry, warm weather. They are not waterproof, and prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.
What is the difference between Parallel Lite and Parallel Slip Ins series?
The Parallel Lite series focuses on lightweight comfort, often featuring a foam sole. The Parallel Slip Ins specifically highlight the Hands Free Slip-ins® technology for ease of wear, as seen in the Summer Invite model.
Are these suitable for walking long distances?
The Luxe Foam® footbed provides good cushioning for daily wear and moderate distances. For extensive trekking or activities requiring significant arch support, additional specialized footwear might be more appropriate.
What kind of socks, if any, should I wear with these?
These sandals are designed to be worn barefoot for maximum comfort and to take advantage of the Luxe Foam® footbed. If socks are preferred, thin, no-show socks made of breathable material would be the best option.
How long does the Luxe Foam® cushioning last?
The durability of the Luxe Foam® cushioning depends on usage frequency and conditions. With proper care and machine washing as recommended, the cushioning should provide comfort for a significant period of regular wear.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too loose or too tight.
While designed for a standard fit, minor adjustments can sometimes be made by ensuring the knit upper is lying flat. If significant discomfort persists, consider trying a different size or style.
Difficulty slipping foot in or out.
Ensure the Heel Pillow® area is clear and unobstructed. For first-time users, it might take a few wears to break in and become more pliable. Avoid forcing your foot; allow the design to assist.
Knit upper material snagged or pulled.
Carefully try to tuck the snagged thread back into the knit. If the snag is significant, it may be difficult to repair perfectly. Avoid wearing in environments where the knit could easily catch on rough surfaces.
Discoloration after washing.
Ensure you are washing with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid mixing with heavily colored items. Always air dry away from direct sunlight which can cause fading.
