FAQs
How do the Slip-ins® actually work?
The unique design includes a structured heel with a cushioned 'Heel Pillow®' that allows your foot to easily slide in without needing to use your hands. The heel shape supports the foot as it enters the shoe.
Can the laces be adjusted for a tighter fit?
No, the laces on this model are decorative and tied off. The fit is primarily determined by the slip-on design and the elasticated elements within the shoe. The 'Cozy Fit' aims for a comfortable, snug feel without laces.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These sneakers are best suited for casual wear, walking, and everyday activities. For high-impact sports or specialized athletic training, shoes designed with specific performance features might be more appropriate.
How often should I machine wash them?
Machine wash as needed when the shoes become dirty. Frequent washing is generally not necessary and can potentially reduce the lifespan of the materials over time. Ensure they are thoroughly air-dried.
What is Contour Foam™?
Contour Foam™ is a cushioning technology used in the midsole of the shoe. It provides lightweight support and shock absorption to enhance comfort during wear.
What is the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
This is a breathable insole designed to provide step-in comfort. It adapts to the shape of the foot and helps keep it cool and comfortable throughout the day.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight initially
Allow a short break-in period. Wear them around the house for a bit. The cushioning will mold to the foot over time.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the heel Pillow® area is clear. Gently slide the foot in, using the Heel Pillow® as a guide. Avoid forcing the foot.
Insole feels flat after some use
The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is designed to conform. If it feels compressed, ensure the shoes are clean and dry, as moisture can affect the foam's loft. Machine washing may help refresh the insole.
