Product Information
Full details
The Skechers Summits trainers are designed for active women seeking a blend of lightweight performance and all-day comfort. Featuring a signature memory foam insole and a breathable mesh upper, these shoes excel at providing impact protection during daily errands or casual walking. Note that the bungee lacing system is designed for a slip-on fit and does not allow for traditional tightness adjustments, which may be a consideration for those requiring a highly customized lockdown.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Most users find the Skechers Summits to fit true to size, though the knit upper provides a slightly forgiving fit.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
Yes, they are machine washable. Use cold water, a gentle cycle, and always air dry them.
Are the laces adjustable?
No, the bungee laces are fixed in place to facilitate a slip-on design.
Do these provide good arch support?
They feature a cushioned memory foam footbed, but they are designed more for comfort than for clinical arch correction.
Are they suitable for running?
These are primarily walking and casual lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for long-distance or high-intensity running.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too loose or tight
Since the laces are bungee-style, try wearing a slightly thicker or thinner sock to adjust the interior volume of the shoe.
The insoles lose their cushion over time
Memory foam eventually compresses; if additional support is needed, the existing insole can often be replaced with a third-party orthotic insert.
Signs of wear on the mesh upper
Avoid using stiff brushes during cleaning, as they can snag the knit material; use a soft cloth or sponge instead.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward as the bungee lacing arrives pre-set for a secure, comfortable fit straight out of the box. To maintain the life of your trainers, it is recommended to keep them away from excessive heat sources to prevent damage to the memory foam and adhesives. When cleaning, the shoes are machine washable; however, it is best to place them in a mesh laundry bag, use a gentle cycle with cold water, and always allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area rather than using a tumble dryer.
