FAQs
What makes these shoes 'Hands Free Slip-ins®'?
The Hands Free Slip-ins® design features a unique heel construction that allows you to slide your foot into the shoe without needing to bend down or use your hands.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The 'Relaxed Fit®' designation typically means these shoes offer a roomier fit, particularly in the forefoot, midfoot, and heel, which can be beneficial for individuals with wider feet.
How do I clean the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
You can usually remove the insole and clean it by hand with mild soap and water. Allow it to air dry completely before placing it back into the shoe.
Can I wear these shoes for running or intense exercise?
These shoes are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort. They may not provide the necessary support or features for high-impact athletic activities.
What is the purpose of the charcoal infusion in the insole?
The charcoal infusion is designed to help absorb odors, contributing to a fresher foot environment.
How durable is the Goodyear® rubber outsole?
Goodyear® rubber is known for its durability and performance, providing excellent traction and wear resistance for everyday use.
Can the fixed stretch laces be adjusted?
No, the stretch laces are fixed and decorative. The slip-on nature of the shoe and the Relaxed Fit® design are intended to provide a secure and comfortable fit without the need for lace adjustment.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
The shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them around the house for short durations to allow the materials to conform to your feet. The Relaxed Fit® design generally offers more room in the forefoot, midfoot, and heel.
Difficulty slipping foot in fully
Ensure your heel is properly aligned with the Heel Pillow®. Try pulling the collar of the shoe slightly outwards as you slip your foot in. The Hands Free Slip-ins® design should make this process intuitive with practice.
Insole feels flat or less cushioned over time
The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may need to be removed and cleaned as per care instructions. If the cushioning has significantly degraded, consider a replacement insole designed for athletic or casual shoes.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Clean the Goodyear® rubber outsole to remove any mud, oil, or debris that might be hindering its anti-slip function. Inspect the tread for excessive wear; if the tread is significantly worn down, the grip may be compromised.
