What does 'Glide-Step®' refer to?

These trainers are designed for comfort and casual wear, walking, and light exercise. They may not offer the necessary support or cushioning for rigorous running activities.
What does 'vegan construction' mean for these shoes?

How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Skechers or the retailer. The UK 4.5 size is specified for this particular product variant. Ensure your foot measurements align with the indicated size for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the heel is fully pushed down. Slightly widening the opening with your hands can help. For first wears, the Heel Pillow® might feel snug; this usually softens with use.
Insole feels flat or less cushioned over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may need to be cleaned or aired out. Remove the insole and allow it to air dry. If the cushioning has significantly diminished, consider replacing the insole with a compatible one.
Mesh upper has a stain
Attempt to spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For persistent stains, consult Skechers' official care guidelines for specific stain removal techniques suitable for mesh.
Tread wear on the outsole
Normal wear and tear is expected with regular use. If excessive wear is noticed prematurely, check for any manufacturing defects. Ensure you are not using them on abrasive surfaces that could accelerate wear.
