Full details
The Skechers Glide-Step Altus is designed for active adults who prioritize convenience and long-lasting comfort in their daily footwear. Featuring innovative hands-free technology and a responsive geometric midsole, these trainers provide natural momentum for walking or light fitness activities; however, users with extremely high arches may find the slip-in fit slightly more structured than traditional lace-up models.

FAQs
Can I machine wash these shoes?
While some Skechers models are machine washable, it is recommended to spot clean these to protect the internal heel pillow structure.
Do I need to tie the laces?
No, the shoes are designed for hands-free entry. You can keep the laces set to your preferred tension and slip them on and off easily.
Are these shoes suitable for people with wide feet?
The stretch-fit mesh provides good adaptability, but if you have significantly wide feet, you may want to try them on to ensure the slip-in opening provides enough room.
What does 'Vegan' mean for this shoe?
This means that no animal-derived materials were used in the construction of the upper, lining, or sole.
How often should I replace the insoles?
If you notice the memory foam losing its bounce or support after significant mileage, you may replace them with third-party inserts, though original Skechers insoles are best for maintaining the design intent.
Are these effective for flat feet?
The memory foam provides contouring, but individuals requiring rigid arch support for medical conditions may need orthotic inserts.
Troubleshooting
Heel slipping while walking
Adjust the laces slightly tighter to ensure the heel pillow is fully engaged against the back of your foot.
Insole feels too warm
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks to allow the air-cooled technology to function effectively.
Dirt on the mesh upper
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dried debris, then wipe with a damp cloth; avoid vigorous scrubbing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers are designed for immediate wear. Simply loosen the factory-set laces slightly if you prefer a looser initial fit, or tighten them to lock your foot in place.
Compatibility: They are best suited for casual walking, light office wear, and daily errands. They are not recommended for technical trail running or heavy-duty gym lifting.
Care: To maintain the longevity of the mesh upper and the integrity of the foam insole, spot clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Do not submerge the shoes in harsh chemicals. Ensure they air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators, which could warp the memory foam.
