FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for comfort and walking, with cushioning for everyday use and light athletic activities. While they offer good support, they are not specifically engineered as high-performance running shoes for intense training.
How do I ensure the best fit with the slip-on design?
The Heel Pillow® helps secure your foot. Ensure you select the correct size. You can adjust the laces for a snug fit that prevents heel slippage without being too tight.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand-washing the upper and insoles with mild soap and water, followed by air drying, is the best method to preserve their structure and materials.
What is the main benefit of the Glide-Step® technology?
Glide-Step® technology is designed to create a smoother transition from heel to toe with each step, reducing impact and effort, which contributes to a more efficient and comfortable walking experience.
How durable is the Goodyear® Performance Outsole?
The Goodyear® Performance Outsole is engineered for enhanced durability, providing reliable traction and wear resistance for extended use on various surfaces.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made from an engineered mesh material, which provides breathability and a flexible, lightweight fit.
Can the insole be replaced?
Yes, the Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole is typically removable and can be replaced with other compatible insoles if desired.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the laces to achieve a comfortable, secure fit. If the tightness persists, ensure you have the correct size, as the slip-in design requires a snug fit without being constrictive.
Reduced cushioning feel over time.
The cushioning is designed for longevity. If the feel diminishes, ensure the insoles are clean and properly seated. For significant loss of cushioning, consider replacement if the shoes are heavily used.
Traction feels compromised.
Clean the Goodyear® Performance Outsole to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting grip. Ensure the outsole is not excessively worn.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes occur with new shoes or due to moisture. Ensure the insole is dry and properly placed. If the squeak persists, it might be from the midsole components rubbing, which can sometimes resolve with continued use.
