Full details
For women seeking a blend of everyday comfort and chic style, the Skechers Relaxed Fit®: Parallel Lite Bootie offers an ideal solution for casual wear.

FAQs
Are these boots truly waterproof?
The boots feature a 3M® Scotchgard® treatment, which provides water and stain resistance. However, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water or exposed to heavy rain for extended periods.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the product's sizing chart and your usual UK women's shoe size. The Relaxed Fit® design means they offer a bit more room, so consider this if you are between sizes.
Can I wear these in cold weather?
Yes, they are suitable for cooler weather due to their closed-toe design and leather material. However, they are not insulated for extreme cold.
What is the heel height of the wedge?
The product details do not specify the exact heel height, but it is designed as a fashion wedge for comfortable elevation.
How should I clean the interior of the boot?
The interior can generally be spot cleaned with a slightly damp cloth. Ensure the boots are completely dry before wearing them again.
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
The 'Relaxed Fit' design provides a roomier fit, which often suits individuals with wider feet, particularly in the toe box and forefoot area.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is primarily made of treated suede, with some variants also mentioning vegan materials.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too roomy
Consider wearing thicker socks or using an additional insole. The Relaxed Fit design inherently offers more space.
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a specialized suede brush or eraser for dry stains. For wet stains, blot gently with a clean cloth and allow to air dry, then brush.
Difficulty zipping up
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. If the zipper is stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) can help lubricate it.
Insole feels less cushioned over time
The Memory Foam® may compress slightly with use. Try airting out the insoles or consider replacing them with compatible cushioned insoles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These boots require no setup. They are ready to wear straight out of the box.
Compatibility: Suitable for adult women. The sizing follows standard UK women's footwear measurements.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning Suede: For general cleaning, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth can be used. Avoid soaking the suede.
- Water Resistance: While treated with 3M® Scotchgard®, it is recommended to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or deep puddles. Reapply a suede protector spray periodically to maintain water resistance.
- Insole Care: The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can be spot cleaned with a mild soap and water solution. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or damage to the material. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
