FAQs
How do Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins® work?
The unique heel design allows you to step into the shoe without bending or touching it. A structured heel counter and internal cushioning provide a comfortable, secure fit once on.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities like walking and playground play. They are not recommended for intense sports that require specialized footwear.
How do I ensure I buy the correct size?
Refer to the Skechers sizing chart and measure your child's foot. The UK size provided (5.5) is specific to this listing; check other listings for different sizes.
Can I use these shoes in wet conditions?
The mesh upper provides breathability but is not waterproof. While they can handle light splashes, they are not designed for prolonged exposure to water.
What is the benefit of the geometric midsole?
The Glide-Step® geometric midsole is designed to provide enhanced cushioning and a smoother transition from heel to toe with each step, promoting a more comfortable walking experience.
How often should I wash my child's trainers?
Wash as needed when they appear dirty or lose their freshness. Frequent washing is not necessary and could potentially reduce the lifespan of the cushioning if not done correctly.
Troubleshooting
Shoes are difficult to slip on.
Ensure the heel counter is fully accessible and the child's foot is properly aligned. For a snugger fit, ensure laces are gently tied.
Discomfort or rubbing around the heel.
The Heel Pillow® is designed to offer a secure fit. Ensure the correct size is being worn. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the right fit.
Reduced cushioning after washing.
Ensure shoes are air-dried completely and have not been exposed to high heat. Follow machine washing instructions carefully.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
The outsole is designed for general traction. For very slick surfaces, extra caution may be needed. Check for wear and tear on the sole.
