FAQs
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is generally recommended to hand clean these shoes to protect the Memory Foam and the specialized slip-in heel construction.
Are these waterproof?
The Hillcrest - Hampton uses mesh and metallic overlays for breathability, so they are not waterproof and are better suited for dry trail conditions.
Do I need to tie the laces every time?
No, once you set the laces to your desired tension, the Hands Free technology allows you to slide in and out of the shoes without untying them.
Is the sole stiff like a mountain boot?
No, the sole is flexible and cushioned, designed for comfort and agility on light-to-moderate trails.
Are these true to size?
Skechers generally follow standard sizing, but if you intend to wear thick hiking socks, consider if you prefer a roomier fit.
Troubleshooting
Heel feels loose when walking
Adjust the tension of the laces slightly to ensure the foot is properly seated in the Heel Pillow cup.
Insole feels less supportive over time
Remove the insole, let it air out for 24 hours, or replace it with a third-party insert if you require additional arch support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these shoes utilize a Hands Free Slip-ins design, no complex breaking-in process is required. To maintain the life of your footwear:
- Fit: Use the adjustable laces initially to find your preferred snugness, then you can rely on the slip-in construction for daily wear.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud or debris from the outsole.
- Maintenance: Avoid submerging the shoes in water; instead, spot clean the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap.
- Storage: Allow shoes to air dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources to preserve the structural integrity of the memory foam.
