Full details
The Skechers Max Cushioning Glide-Step - Hartford trainers are designed for adult women seeking ultimate comfort and responsive performance. Their key benefit lies in the advanced cushioning system and Hands Free Slip-ins® technology, offering a smooth, supportive, and easy-to-wear experience. A potential caveat is that the specific 'Hartford' model in Navy Blue/Purple, Size 2.5 UK, might have limited availability compared to other variants. These trainers feature a breathable engineered knit upper, a cushioned insole, responsive ULTRA GO® cushioning, and a Glide-Step® geometric design for enhanced shock absorption and energy return, all grounded by an anti-slip Goodyear® Performance Outsole. They are also machine washable and vegan.

FAQs
How do the Hands Free Slip-ins® work?
The trainers feature a unique heel design that allows you to slide your foot in without touching the shoe, thanks to the Heel Pillow® and a structured heel counter.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for walking, comfort, and light training. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support or stability required for intense or long-distance running.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
Yes, the trainers are machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent, and air dry them afterwards.
What does 'Glide-Step®' refer to?
Glide-Step® refers to the geometric design of the midsole that promotes smoother transitions from heel to toe and enhances responsive support with each step.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The engineered knit upper is breathable but not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions and light moisture but may not keep your feet dry in heavy rain.
What is the benefit of the Goodyear® Performance Outsole?
The Goodyear® Performance Outsole provides enhanced traction and durability, ensuring a stable and secure grip on a variety of surfaces.
Are the materials used vegan?
Yes, these trainers are made with vegan materials, meaning no animal products or by-products were used in their construction.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or rub.
Wear with socks for the initial period to allow the materials to conform to your foot. Ensure you are using the correct size. The knit upper will stretch slightly over time.
Difficulty slipping foot in.
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is fully extended. Use a shoe horn as an aid if needed, although the design aims for hands-free use.
Reduced cushioning after extended use.
The cushioning will naturally compact over time. For extensive wear, consider replacing the shoes. Ensure the insole is clean and dry.
Outsole grip is diminished.
Clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove any embedded dirt or debris that might be affecting traction.
