FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance hiking?

The Skechers Hillcrest Falls are best suited for walking and light trail use. For long-distance or rugged hiking, more robust hiking boots with greater ankle support and durability would be recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The shoes should feel snug but not tight. There should be a little room at the front of your toes, and your heel should not slip excessively when you walk. Try them on with the type of socks you typically wear for outdoor activities.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and cushioning. Hand clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.

What does 'water repellent' mean for these shoes?

Water repellent means the material is treated to resist water penetration for a short period, making it ideal for light rain or dew. It does not mean the shoes are waterproof, and they will not keep your feet dry in prolonged submersion or heavy downpours.

How often should I clean my Skechers Hillcrest Falls?

Clean them as needed, especially after exposure to dirt, mud, or significant moisture. Regular spot cleaning will help maintain their appearance and performance.

Do these shoes come in other colors?

Yes, the Skechers Hillcrest Falls series is available in various colors. Please check the product listings for other available options.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Since these are slip-on shoes, fit is crucial. If they feel too tight, try wearing thinner socks or ensure your feet are not swollen. If they feel too loose, consider adding an aftermarket insole for a snugger fit, or opt for a size down if available and the fit is significantly off.

Water resistance not sufficient in heavy rain.

These shoes are designed for water repellency, not full waterproofing. For heavy rain, consider specialized waterproof footwear. For light moisture, ensure the upper is clean and treated if necessary, though they are not designed for immersion.

Reduced cushioning over time.

The Air Cooled Memory Foam insole may compress with prolonged use. To extend its life, ensure proper drying and avoid excessive moisture. If cushioning significantly diminishes, consider replacing the insoles with new ones.

Traction on slippery surfaces is poor.

While the rubber outsole provides reliable grip, extremely slick surfaces like wet tile or ice can still be challenging. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris. For very slippery conditions, extra caution is advised.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning thanks to the Memory Foam insole.
  • Water-repellent feature is beneficial for light rain and dew.
  • Slip-on design provides quick and easy wearability.
  • Durable outsole offers good traction on multiple surfaces.
  • Breathable knit upper promotes airflow.

Cons

  • Slip-on design may not provide a secure fit for high-impact activities.
  • Water repellency is suitable for light conditions, not heavy rain.
  • May require breaking in for optimal comfort for some users.
  • Primarily designed for walking and light trails, not rugged hiking.
  • Limited adjustability due to the slip-on nature.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no assembly. Simply take them out of the box and wear them. Ensure you select the correct size for a comfortable fit.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the man-made and knit upper with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Insole: The Memory Foam insole can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth. Ensure it is completely dry before wearing.
