FAQs
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, thanks to a special heel design that allows easy entry.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for walking and everyday comfort. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specific support or stability required for high-impact activities like running.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the sizing guide and measure your foot. The Stretch Fit® upper offers some give, but ensuring the correct size is crucial for comfort and the effectiveness of the Hands Free Slip-ins® feature.
Can I wear these with athletic socks?
Yes, you can wear them with various types of socks, including athletic socks. However, very thick socks might affect the fit and ease of slipping the shoes on.
What is the benefit of the Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole?
This insole provides high-level cushioning and breathability, helping to keep your feet cool and comfortable throughout the day.
Are these trainers good for people with wide feet?
The Stretch Fit® knit upper offers some flexibility, but these trainers are not specifically designed for wide feet. If you have significantly wide feet, they might feel snug.
How durable is the knit upper?
The knit upper is designed for flexibility and comfort. While reasonably durable for walking, it can be susceptible to snags from sharp objects. Treat with care to prolong its life.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
While these are slip-ons, the Stretch Fit® upper offers some flexibility. Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the fit is still not ideal, consider the absence of laces means a less customizable fit compared to traditional trainers.
Heel slips when walking.
The Heel Pillow® is designed to cradle the heel. If slipping occurs, ensure your socks are not too thick or slippery. Check that the shoes are fully on, with your heel settled into the intended position.
Knit upper shows signs of wear or snagging.
Be mindful of sharp objects or rough surfaces that could catch the knit material. If minor snags occur, try to gently pull them back into place. For cleaning, always use the machine washable instructions.
Reduced cushioning over time.
The cushioning technologies are designed for durability. If you notice reduced cushioning, ensure the shoes are not being used for high-impact activities beyond their intended walking purpose. Regular cleaning can help maintain material integrity.
