FAQs
How do Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins® work?
The design includes a unique heel structure that provides a secure fit, allowing you to step into the shoe easily without needing to touch it with your hands.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for comfort and support during walking and light athletic activities. For intense or long-distance running, specialized running shoes might be more appropriate.
How do I clean the Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole?
The insole is part of the shoe and can be cleaned along with the rest of the trainer during machine washing. Ensure they are completely dry afterwards.
What does 'vegan' mean in the product description?
It means the shoes are constructed using materials that do not contain any animal products.
What is the Glide-Step® geometric design?
This refers to the pattern and shape of the outsole, engineered to provide a smooth transition during your stride and enhance stability.
How durable is the Goodyear® Performance Outsole?
The Goodyear® outsole is known for its durability and excellent traction, designed to withstand regular wear and provide reliable grip.
Can I wear these trainers without socks?
While the Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole offers comfort, wearing socks is generally recommended for hygiene and to prevent potential friction, especially if the shoe fit is not perfect.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Utilize the lace-up system to adjust the fit. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a different size or width if available.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The ULTRA GO® cushioning may naturally compress with extensive use. For optimal performance, ensure proper care and avoid excessive wear beyond intended use.
Slipping sensation despite Heel Pillow®
Ensure socks are worn and that the laces are tied appropriately for a snug fit. The Heel Pillow® is designed to work in conjunction with a secure lace-up.
Traction issues on wet surfaces
While the Goodyear® outsole offers high traction, wet surfaces can always reduce grip. Exercise caution and ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris.
