FAQs
Are the lights on these Skechers shoes rechargeable?
The lights in Skechers S-Lights® are typically powered by non-replaceable batteries activated by movement. They are not rechargeable.
How do I clean the lights on the sneakers?
Avoid submerging the shoes in water. Clean the area around the lights gently with a damp cloth. Excessive moisture can damage the electronic components.
What is the benefit of the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® midsole is designed to provide enhanced comfort and a smoother, more cushioned stride, making it ideal for active children.
What age group are these sneakers designed for?
These Skechers S-Lights®: Glide-Step® Lights Sneakers are designed for kids.
Can the lights be turned off?
Typically, the lights in this series are motion-activated and do not have an on/off switch. They activate when the child walks or runs.
What does 'adaptive closure' mean for this shoe?
Adaptive closure refers to the combination of fixed stretch laces and an adjustable hook-and-loop strap, designed for an easy, secure, and customizable fit for children.
What is the recommended use for these trainers?
These trainers are best suited for everyday wear, casual play, school activities, and light recreational use. They are not designed for intense athletic training or rough sports.
Troubleshooting
Lights are not turning on
Ensure the child is walking or jumping to activate the motion-sensitive lights. Check if the shoe has been exposed to excessive moisture, which can damage the electronics. If the issue persists, the light unit may need replacement.
Strap is not secure
Ensure the hook-and-loop fastener is clean and free of debris. Press firmly to secure the strap. If the hook-and-loop material is worn out, it may need replacement.
Shoe appears too tight or loose
Adjust the instep strap for a snug fit. The fixed stretch laces provide a base level of snugness; ensure the strap is adjusted correctly over them.
Unusual noise from midsole during activity
Slight noises can sometimes occur due to the internal lighting mechanism. If the noise is concerning or accompanied by a loss of cushioning, inspect the sole for damage.
