FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for children with wide feet?
The Bounder Pro trainers feature a flexible mesh upper and stretch laces, which can accommodate a moderate range of foot widths. However, for very wide feet, the fit may be snug.
How do I ensure the best fit for my child?
Measure your child's foot from heel to toe and compare it with the Skechers sizing chart. Ensure there is a small amount of growing room but that the shoe is not excessively large.
Can these trainers be worn for formal occasions?
These trainers are designed for comfort and active wear, making them best suited for casual, athletic, or school settings rather than formal events.
What is the advantage of Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins®?
The Hands Free Slip-ins® technology allows children to put on and take off their shoes without using their hands, promoting independence and ease of use.
How long do the stretch laces last?
The stretch laces are designed for durability. However, like all elastic materials, they may gradually lose some elasticity with prolonged use and washing.
Can I remove the insole for cleaning or orthotics?
The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is typically removable, allowing for separate cleaning or replacement with custom orthotics if needed.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The trainers are made with breathable mesh and synthetic materials, which are not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions and light moisture but not for heavy rain or puddles.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the heel is fully pushed down. Loosen the stretch laces slightly if needed. The Heel Pillow® may require a brief break-in period.
Shoes feel too loose
Tighten the stretch laces. Ensure the correct size has been purchased. The design prioritizes ease of entry, so a snug fit is achieved through the lace system.
Insole feels flat after washing
Ensure the shoes are air-dried completely. The Memory Foam® insole will return to its shape as it dries.
Discoloration after washing
Use only cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid washing with dark-colored items. If significant discoloration occurs, consider spot cleaning for future maintenance.
