FAQs
How do I put on the Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins®?
Simply place your foot into the shoe and the Heel Pillow® will hold your foot in place. The shoe is designed to be slipped on effortlessly without needing to bend or use your hands.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Glide-Step Altus trainers are designed for walking, casual wear, and light training. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered as high-performance running shoes.
Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?
Yes, these trainers are machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent, then air dry.
What does 'vegan construction' mean?
Vegan construction means the shoes are made without any animal-derived materials or by-products.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the sizing chart and try them on. The stretch-laced design offers a flexible fit, but if you are between sizes, it's often recommended to size up for comfort.
What is the benefit of the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® midsole features a geometric cushioned design that provides enhanced shock absorption and a smoother transition from heel to toe with each step.
How durable is the mesh upper?
The mesh upper is designed to be breathable and lightweight. For enhanced durability, follow the care instructions and avoid abrasive cleaning. The synthetic hotmelt overlays add some structure and protection.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
While the stretch laces offer a flexible fit, if the shoe feels significantly too tight or loose, it may be a sizing issue. Consider trying a different size or width. The stretch laces do not offer traditional adjustability.
Difficulty slipping foot in initially
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is fully extended and try stepping straight down into the shoe. For the first few wears, the shoe may feel a bit snug until it conforms to your foot shape. Avoid forcing your foot.
Cushioning feels flat after some use
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can be refreshed by air drying. If persistent, consider replacing the insole with a new Skechers insole or a compatible aftermarket one.
Mesh upper shows signs of wear
For minor scuffs, use a damp cloth. For more significant wear, follow the machine wash instructions carefully. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods that could damage the mesh.
