Product Information
Full details
The Skechers Summits series is designed for adult women seeking a versatile, athletic-inspired sneaker that prioritizes all-day comfort and convenience. Featuring a signature slip-on design with bungee laces and air-cooled memory foam technology, these trainers are ideal for casual walking, light exercise, or daily errands. While they offer excellent flexibility and shock absorption, the slip-on style may not provide the same level of lockdown adjustability as traditional tied-lace footwear, making them best suited for standard-width feet rather than high-intensity sports.

FAQs
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
Yes, but use a cold, gentle cycle and always allow them to air dry completely. Do not use high-heat dryers.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the mesh knit upper is designed for breathability and will allow water to pass through if exposed to rain or puddles.
Do the bungee laces need to be tied?
No, the bungee laces are fixed in place to create a slip-on shoe that stays secure without traditional tying.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The stretchable knit upper offers some accommodation for wider feet, but they are generally built on a standard width last.
Can I use these for running?
While comfortable for light jogging or walking, they lack the structural support and stability required for dedicated long-distance running.
Troubleshooting
The fit feels too loose over the instep
The bungee laces are pre-set; however, you can adjust the tension by re-threading the laces through the eyelets or using an insert to take up extra space.
Footbed feels less supportive after long-term wear
Memory foam eventually compresses; if comfort diminishes, consider replacing the internal insole with a third-party orthotic insert.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no specific setup; simply slip them on and ensure the heel is properly seated. Because they feature a slip-on design with elastic bungee laces, they are best suited for standard foot shapes. To maintain the condition of your Skechers Summits:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt from the knit upper.
- Washing: Most Skechers mesh sneakers can be machine-washed on a gentle cycle using cold water. Always air dry; never place them in a tumble dryer as heat can damage the memory foam and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the elasticity of the knit fabric and the integrity of the foam.
