Extended Product Information
FAQs
How do I put these shoes on?
Simply place your heel on the ground, use your hands to pull the heel tab at the back, and slide your foot into the shoe. The bungee laces provide a slip-on fit without needing to tie.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, these trainers are not recommended for machine washing or drying. Hand wash with a damp cloth and mild soap, and air dry them away from direct heat.
Can the bungee laces be adjusted?
The bungee laces are fixed and not designed for adjustment. They provide a secure slip-on fit but do not offer the customizable tightness of traditional laces.
What is the purpose of the Glide-Step midsole?
The Glide-Step midsole features a geometric cushioning design that aims to provide a smooth, responsive ride and enhance comfort with every step.
Is the memory foam insole removable?
Yes, the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is typically removable, allowing for easier cleaning and airing.
What age group are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are designed for kids and are particularly suitable for those who prefer an easy slip-on style for daily activities, play, and school.
How durable are these trainers for rough play?
While designed for comfort and ease of use, the lightweight materials are best suited for moderate activities. For very rough or demanding play, more robust footwear might be considered.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the heel tab is fully accessible and pull the shoe open slightly. Make sure the correct size is being used. Occasionally, the interior lining might need a moment to conform to the foot.
Foot feels loose or not secure
While designed for slip-on ease, the bungee laces offer some tension. For a snugger fit, ensure the foot is pushed fully to the front of the shoe. These are not designed for a vice-like grip like traditional lace-ups.
Material scuffs easily
The mesh and synthetic upper is lightweight but can be prone to scuffs. Clean gently with a damp cloth to remove marks. For deeper scuffs, consider it part of the shoe's character from active use.
Insole feels flat after use
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® molds to the foot over time. If it feels less cushioned, try removing the insole and letting it air out, or gently cleaning it as per care instructions. It may also need time to regain its shape.
