FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed with Max Cushioning and Glide-Step® for walking and casual wear. While they offer good comfort and support, they may not provide the specialized features required for high-impact running compared to dedicated running shoes.
How do the Hands Free Slip-ins® work?
The design incorporates a specially shaped heel that allows you to easily slide your foot into the shoe without needing to bend down or use your hands. The Heel Pillow® helps to hold your foot securely once inside.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is generally not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and materials. Hand washing with a damp cloth is the preferred method for cleaning.
What is the benefit of the Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole?
This insole provides high-rebound cushioning for enhanced comfort and features breathability to help keep your feet cool and dry during wear.
How durable is the Goodyear® Performance Outsole?
The Goodyear® Performance Outsole is engineered for enhanced traction, stability, and durability, offering reliable performance on various surfaces.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from a 3D print monomesh, which is lightweight and breathable, allowing for good airflow to keep feet comfortable.
What UK shoe size is this specific guide for?
This guide specifically details the Skechers Slip-ins: Max Cushioning Glide-Step - Sapphire trainers in a Grey/Blue colourway, Men's UK size 11.5.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping shoes on/off
Ensure the heel counter is fully extended and try to slide your foot in smoothly. The Heel Pillow® may require a brief adjustment period to mold to your foot.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
While designed for durability, the cushioning may naturally compress with extensive use. Regularly cleaning the insoles and ensuring proper fit can help maintain performance.
Slipping sensation despite adjustable laces
Ensure the laces are tightened appropriately for a secure fit. If the issue persists, the shoe's width might not be ideal for your foot shape, even with the slip-in feature.
Traction issues on wet surfaces
While the Goodyear® outsole offers enhanced traction, extreme wet conditions can still pose a risk. Exercise caution on very slick surfaces.
