FAQs
Are the Skechers Glide-Step Altus shoes machine washable?
While many Skechers styles are machine washable, it is recommended to spot clean these to maintain the integrity of the heel pillow and memory foam.
Can I use these for running?
These are designed for walking and casual activities. They do not offer the high-level stability and motion control required for long-distance or high-impact running.
Are they truly hands-free?
Yes, they are engineered specifically to be put on without using your hands, provided the fit is correct and the heel pillow is allowed to slide onto the foot.
Is the material vegan?
Yes, the product is constructed using 100% vegan materials.
Do the laces actually function?
The laces are adjustable, allowing you to fine-tune the tension of the upper to match your foot's width and volume.
Troubleshooting
Heel slipping while walking
Ensure the shoe is fully on and the heel pillow is seated correctly against your heel. You may need to slightly adjust the laces to improve overall tension.
Insole feeling too soft or bottoming out
Memory foam can compress over time. If you require more arch support, consider replacing the factory insole with a third-party orthotic insert.
Mesh upper accumulating dust or debris
Use a lint roller or a soft-bristled brush to gently remove loose particles trapped in the engineered mesh weave.
Pros and Cons

- Versatile design suitable for casual wear
Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed for a 'slip-in' experience, but they do feature adjustable laces. Users should ensure the laces are tightened to their preference during the first use to lock in the desired fit.
Care Instructions:
- Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove surface dirt and mud.
- For deeper cleaning, spot clean with mild detergent.
- Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may degrade the engineered mesh or the memory foam insole.
- Always air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the cushioned midsole.
