Full details
The Skechers Max Cushioning Glide-Step Trainers are designed for adult women seeking ultimate comfort and responsive performance in their footwear. Their key benefit is the enhanced shock absorption and energy return provided by the Max Cushioning platform combined with a Glide-Step design for smooth transitions. A potential caveat is their athletic focus, which might make them less ideal for formal occasions. Key features include a hands-free slip-in design, a breathable engineered mesh upper, a Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ comfort insole, ULTRA GO® cushioning, and an anti-slip Goodyear® Rubber Outsole.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the Max Cushioning platform offers great shock absorption, these trainers are primarily designed for walking, casual wear, and light fitness. For intense running, consider Skechers running-specific models which may offer more specialized support and features.
How do I clean the engineered mesh upper?
Gently wipe the mesh with a soft cloth dampened with water and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes and allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insoles are typically removable, allowing for easier cleaning or replacement.
What does 'Hands-Free Slip-ins®' mean?
This feature allows you to easily slide your foot into the shoe without needing to bend down or use your hands. The design incorporates a special heel structure that aids in this process.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof. The engineered mesh upper provides breathability, making them suitable for dry or mildly damp conditions, but not heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wetness.
What is the benefit of the Goodyear® Rubber Outsole?
The Goodyear® Rubber Outsole provides enhanced durability and superior traction, offering a more secure grip on various surfaces and increasing the lifespan of the shoe.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Skechers and measure your foot length. This model is available in UK sizes, and the product details specify a UK 6 for this particular variant.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is pulled back slightly and the shoe is fully opened. For a snugger fit, ensure laces are tied appropriately. If the shoe is new, it may require a few wears to break in.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
The ULTRA GO® cushioning is designed for longevity, but performance may slightly decrease with extensive use. Consider cleaning the insoles to refresh their feel. If the issue persists after significant wear, it might be time to consider a replacement.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the Goodyear® Rubber Outsole offers high traction, extreme wet conditions can still pose a slip hazard. Exercise caution on very slick surfaces.
Foot odor
Remove and air out the Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insoles regularly. Use a shoe deodorizer or baking soda inside the shoes overnight. Ensure shoes are completely dry before wearing.
