FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The Skechers Glide-Step® Pro - Waverra trainers are designed for comfort during everyday activities and light exercise. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with advanced support and cushioning tailored for long-distance performance would be more appropriate.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as this can damage the materials, construction, and cushioning technology. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What does 'vegan design' mean for these shoes?

A 'vegan design' means that no animal-derived materials or by-products were used in the construction of these trainers.

How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?

Refer to the Skechers size chart available on their official website or from reputable retailers. It typically involves measuring your foot length and comparing it to the provided size guide. For these trainers, UK size 8 is specified for this particular product listing.

How durable is the engineered jacquard mesh?

The engineered jacquard mesh is designed for breathability and flexibility. While durable for normal wear and light athletic activities, it is recommended to clean it gently to avoid premature wear or damage.

What is the main benefit of the Glide-Step® midsole?

The Glide-Step® midsole is engineered with a geometric pattern to provide a smoother transition from heel to toe with each step, offering responsive cushioning and a lightweight feel.

Can I replace the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?

Yes, the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is typically removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics or alternative insoles if desired.

Troubleshooting

Foot discomfort after extended wear

Ensure you have the correct size and that the stretch laces are providing adequate, yet comfortable, tension. The insoles may require a break-in period. Consider using additional athletic insoles if specific arch support is needed.

Mesh upper appears dirty or stained

Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, a soft brush can be used with caution. Always allow the shoes to air dry completely.

Shoes feel slippery on certain surfaces

The rubber outsole is designed for general traction. For exceptionally slick surfaces, exercise caution. Ensure the outsole is free from debris that could impede grip.

Stretch laces feel too loose or too tight

While designed for ease, the tied-off stretch laces can sometimes be adjusted. Carefully untie the knot and re-tie it at a tension that provides a secure and comfortable fit for your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and smudges from the jacquard mesh. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Insole Care: The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can often be spot-cleaned with a damp cloth. Ensure the insoles are completely dry before wearing to prevent odor.
  3. Midsole and Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole and midsole with a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt.
  4. Drying: Always air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
  5. Washing Machine: It is generally not recommended to machine wash these trainers as it can damage the materials and construction.
