FAQs

No, the Skechers Slip-ins: Glide-Step Gratify - Everyday Bliss trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.
How do the Hands Free Slip-ins® work?
The shoes are designed with a specific heel construction that holds its shape, allowing you to easily slide your foot in without bending or touching the shoe with your hands.
Can I adjust the laces?
The stretch laces are decorative and tied off. They are not designed to be adjusted for fit.
Are these shoes vegan?
Yes, the product description states they are a 'casual vegan slip-on'.
What is the purpose of the Heel Pillow®?
The Heel Pillow® is a design feature that provides a secure, cushioned, and comfortable fit around the heel, preventing slippage and enhancing overall comfort.
How do I clean my Skechers Slip-ins?
It is recommended to wipe the upper with a damp cloth and spot clean the insole with mild soap and water. Always air dry away from heat.
What is the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® midsole features a geometric design that is engineered to provide enhanced comfort and shock absorption with every step you take.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose after slipping them on.
The Heel Pillow® design is intended to provide a secure fit. If the shoes feel consistently too loose, consider trying a half-size smaller, as the design aims for a snug feel without needing laces.
Discomfort on the heel.
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is positioned correctly around your heel. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, there might be an issue with the fit for your specific foot shape.
Reduced cushioning over time.
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may lose some of its original cushioning after extended use. Consider replacing the insole with a new compatible Skechers insole for renewed comfort.
Difficulty slipping foot in.
Ensure your heel is positioned correctly at the back of the shoe and that you are sliding your foot in smoothly. The Heel Pillow® may require a slight adjustment the first few times you wear them.
