Product Information
Full details
The Skechers Glide-Step® Pro - Waverra trainers are designed for adult males seeking comfortable, stylish, and versatile athletic footwear. The key benefit is the advanced Glide-Step® midsole technology combined with an Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole for superior cushioning and support. A potential caveat for some users might be the tied-off stretch laces, which offer a secure fit but may not be as adjustable as traditional laces. These trainers feature an engineered jacquard mesh upper, a geometric pattern, and are suitable for casual wear and light athletic activities. They are also machine washable for easy maintenance.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
No, the Skechers Glide-Step® Pro - Waverra trainers are designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. For marathon running, specialized shoes with advanced support and cushioning are recommended.
Can I adjust the laces?
The laces are tied-off stretch laces designed for a slip-on fit. They are not intended for significant adjustment beyond the initial stretch-fit provided by the upper.
What is the main benefit of the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® midsole is engineered with a geometric design to provide smooth transitions from heel to toe and enhanced cushioning with every step.
How do I know if I have the right size?
It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the Skechers sizing chart available online. The trainers should feel snug but not tight, with room for your toes.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability, not waterproofing. They are not suitable for wet conditions.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, you can wear these trainers with or without socks. The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole provides comfort either way, though wearing socks can further enhance comfort and hygiene.
What does 'vegan design' mean for these trainers?
A vegan design means that no animal-derived materials or by-products were used in the construction of these trainers.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose
While the laces are tied-off, the stretch-fit upper offers some give. If still uncomfortable, consider alternative lacing techniques if applicable, or ensure you have the correct size. Refer to sizing charts for accurate measurements.
Reduced cushioning over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can lose some of its resilience with heavy use. For prolonged comfort, consider replacing the insole with a new Skechers insole or a compatible aftermarket option.
Material appears dirty after washing
Ensure you are using cold water on a gentle cycle and have removed any significant surface dirt prior to washing. For stubborn stains, a mild detergent can be used. Always air dry.
