FAQs

Are these Skechers GLACIAL ULTRA - WOODLANDS boots waterproof?

No, the suede upper is not inherently waterproof. To protect them from moisture and extend their life, we highly recommend applying a suitable suede protector spray before wear and reapplying periodically, especially if you plan to wear them in damp conditions.

How do I clean the suede material?

For basic cleaning, gently brush off loose dirt with a suede brush. For more stubborn stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or eraser, always testing it on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet.

What is 'Relaxed Fit'?

Skechers' Relaxed Fit design provides a roomier, more comfortable fit compared to standard athletic shoes, especially in the toe box and forefoot area. This allows for greater freedom of movement and accommodates various foot shapes.

Can I wear these boots in snow?

While the warm lining provides insulation for cold temperatures, the suede upper is not designed for heavy snow or slush and is not waterproof. If worn in snow, they should be pre-treated with a waterproofing spray, and you should be mindful of potential damage from moisture and salt.

What kind of socks should I wear with these boots?

For optimal warmth and comfort, we recommend wearing thermal socks made from wool, merino wool, or synthetic blends. These materials provide good insulation and moisture-wicking properties, complementing the boot's warm lining.

What is the heel height of these boots?

These boots feature a low heel, typically between 2.5 and 4.9 centimeters (approximately 1 to 1.9 inches), providing comfortable elevation and stability for everyday wear.

Are these boots true to size?

Skechers generally run true to size, but the 'Relaxed Fit' means they offer extra room. If you are typically between sizes, consider ordering your usual size or referring to Skechers' specific size guide for the most accurate fit.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lace-up closure to achieve your desired comfort and fit. Ensure laces are evenly tightened from the bottom up.

Suede appears dirty or scuffed.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or cleaner is recommended. Always test on an inconspicuous area first and follow product instructions.

Feet still feel cold despite warm lining.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Thicker, thermal socks made of wool or synthetic blends can significantly enhance warmth. Also, check that the laces are not too tight, which can restrict circulation.

Laces keep coming undone.

Try using a double knot when tying your laces. Alternatively, consider replacing the laces with a different material that may hold a knot better.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This could be due to moisture trapped inside the sole or friction between parts of the boot. Try dusting a small amount of talcum powder inside the boot or under the insole. If the issue persists, inspect the sole for any loose parts.

Care

  • Suede Upper Care: The suede material requires specific attention. To clean, gently brush off loose dirt with a suede brush. For stubborn stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or eraser, always testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh rubbing.
  • Water Protection: The suede is not inherently waterproof. To protect your boots from rain and moisture, apply a high-quality suede protector spray before wearing them for the first time and reapply periodically as directed by the product.
  • Lining Care: For the warm lining, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow to air dry thoroughly away from direct heat.
  • Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place. Consider using boot shapers to help maintain their form.
