FAQs

Are the lights on these trainers waterproof?

The light-up components are not waterproof. Avoid submerging the shoes in water. Clean them with a damp cloth only.

Can I turn the lights off?

Yes, these trainers feature an on/off button, usually located on the strap, to disable the lights when desired.

How long do the lights last?

The lights contain non-replaceable batteries designed to last the expected lifespan of the shoe under normal use. They are not intended for long-term battery life beyond typical wear.

What is Glide-Step technology?

Glide-Step technology refers to the design of the midsole, which is engineered to provide enhanced cushioning and a smoother transition during walking and running, offering comfort and support.

How should I clean these trainers?

Clean the shoes with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or soaking. Allow them to air dry naturally.

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These trainers are designed for casual wear, school, and light play. They may not provide the specialized support required for intense athletic activities.

What is the closure system?

The closure system combines elastic laces with an adjustable hook-and-loop strap, making them easy for children to fasten and unfasten securely.

Troubleshooting

Lights are not working

Ensure the on/off button is switched to the 'on' position. Check if the shoes have been subjected to excessive moisture. The batteries may have depleted; contact customer service if the shoes are within warranty.

Strap closure is not secure

Ensure the hook-and-loop strap is clean and free of debris. Press firmly to secure. If the strap loses its adhesion, it may be indicative of wear and tear.

Shoes appear dirty

Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush. Allow to air dry completely.

Child experiences discomfort

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Check that the closure is adjusted appropriately for a snug but not tight fit. Consider if the specific shoe design is suitable for the child's foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no initial setup beyond fitting them to your child's feet. The lights are activated by movement. The on/off button for the lights is typically located on the side strap or tongue; ensure it is in the 'on' position for lights to function and 'off' to conserve battery.

Compatibility: The Skechers Glide-Step Lights Trainers are designed for general children's footwear. They are compatible with typical children's clothing and are suitable for casual wear, school, and light recreational activities.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: For the fabric and synthetic parts, use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Lights: Do not submerge the shoes in water as this can damage the light mechanism. Clean around the light-up areas with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
  3. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not use a dryer.
  4. Battery Replacement: The lights contain non-replaceable batteries. The lights are designed to last the lifespan of the shoe under normal use. Consult the product packaging or Skechers customer service for specific details if light functionality ceases.
