FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Skechers Slip-ins RF: Respected - Elgin shoes feature a leather upper. While leather offers some natural water resistance, these shoes are not explicitly waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or puddles to protect the material. For added protection, you can apply a leather-specific water repellent spray.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, due to the leather construction and specialized components like the Heel Pillow™ and Goodyear® Rubber Outsole, these shoes are not suitable for machine washing. Please refer to the 'Product Care' section for proper cleaning instructions.

What is the Heel Pillow™?

The Heel Pillow™ is an exclusive Skechers technology built into the heel of the shoe. It's designed to securely hold your foot in place without rubbing, providing enhanced comfort and contributing to the hands-free slip-in experience.

What does Relaxed Fit® mean?

Relaxed Fit® describes a Skechers design that provides a roomier, more comfortable fit, especially in the toe box and forefoot area. This allows for natural toe splay and greater comfort, particularly for those who prefer more space or have wider feet.

How durable is the Goodyear® Rubber Outsole?

The Goodyear® Rubber Outsole is engineered for enhanced traction, stability, and durability. It's designed to withstand everyday wear and tear, offering long-lasting performance and reliable grip on various surfaces.

Are these shoes good for walking long distances?

With the Comfort Arch Insole and Relaxed Fit® design, these shoes are built for comfort during extended periods of wear and moderate walking. While they are not specialized athletic walking shoes, many users find them comfortable for daily long-distance walking due to their supportive features.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose despite correct size.

The Relaxed Fit® is designed for a roomy feel in the toe and forefoot. If you prefer a snugger fit, consider wearing thicker socks. If the heel is slipping excessively, ensure your foot is fully engaged with the Heel Pillow™.

Leather appears dry, dull, or has minor scuffs.

Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Then, apply a quality leather conditioner or polish appropriate for brown leather to restore its luster and moisture. For scuffs, a leather renovator stick may help.

Difficulty slipping into the shoe smoothly.

Ensure your foot is aligned directly with the opening and you are stepping straight down. The Heel Pillow™ and molded heel panel are designed to guide your foot effortlessly. If you're wearing very thick socks, it might impede the smooth entry.

Unpleasant odor from the shoes.

Allow the shoes to air out after each wear. For persistent odors, use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight (remove before wearing). Ensure socks are clean and breathable.

Goodyear® Outsole grip seems reduced.

Check the outsole for accumulated dirt, mud, or debris that might be reducing traction. Clean the outsole thoroughly with a brush and mild soap and water. Ensure the sole is completely dry before wearing again.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

Getting started with your Skechers Slip-ins RF: Respected - Elgin is as simple as it sounds:

  1. Locate a stable surface: Stand upright with enough space around you.
  2. Simply step in: Slide your foot into the shoe. The TOUCHLESS FIT® Skechers Slip-ins® molded heel panel and Heel Pillow™ are designed to automatically guide your foot into place and secure it comfortably.
  3. Adjust as needed: Wiggle your toes to ensure the Relaxed Fit® has provided adequate room and comfort.

No laces to tie, no bending down required.

Compatibility

These shoes are designed for:

  • Adult Males: Specifically tailored in sizing and fit for adult men.
  • Casual and Everyday Wear: Ideal for daily activities, light walking, and situations requiring convenient footwear.
  • Various Foot Types: The Relaxed Fit® accommodates a wider range of foot widths, offering a comfortable, roomy feel without feeling loose.

Product Care

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your leather shoes:

  • Leather Upper Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher spots, a dedicated leather cleaner specifically designed for footwear can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Leather Conditioning: Periodically apply a quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. Follow the product instructions for application.
  • Outsole Cleaning: The Goodyear® Rubber Outsole can be cleaned with a brush (like a soft-bristled shoe brush) and mild soap and water to remove debris and maintain traction. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.
  • Drying: If your shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
  • Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  • Avoid Machine Washing: Due to the leather material, these shoes are not suitable for machine washing.
