FAQs
What makes these shoes 'Slip-ins®'?
Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins® feature a unique design with a padded heel (Heel Pillow®) that allows the shoe to stay open, enabling children to step into them easily without bending or using their hands.
Can these shoes be worn for sports?
The Glide-Step - Vista Lane sneakers are suitable for light athletic activities and active play due to their cushioning and supportive design. For intense or specialized sports, a shoe designed specifically for that sport would be recommended.
How do I know if I'm ordering the correct size?
Refer to the Skechers sizing chart and measure your child's foot. This guide specifies 'Size 3 UK Child'. Compare your child's foot measurement to the chart to ensure the best fit.
Are these shoes waterproof?
These sneakers feature a mesh and synthetic upper, which is breathable but not waterproof. They are not designed for wear in wet conditions and are machine washable for cleaning after getting dirty.
What is the benefit of the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® geometric midsole is engineered to provide enhanced cushioning and promote a smoother, more natural stride, making the shoes comfortable for walking and running.
How often should I wash these shoes?
Wash the shoes as needed when they become dirty. Frequent washing is not typically required if they are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth for minor scuffs. Always follow the machine washing instructions when necessary.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight.
While these are slip-on shoes, ensure the size is correct. The stretch laces offer some flexibility. If a shoe feels consistently too loose, it might be a size issue or the elastic may have stretched over time. If too tight, consider if the foot has grown.
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe.
Ensure the Heel Pillow® area is clear and the back of the shoe is fully open. Sometimes, socks can bunch up. Try slipping the shoe on again, ensuring the heel is aligned correctly.
Insole is not comfortable or feels flat.
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is designed for comfort. If it feels flat, ensure it is properly seated. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consult the manufacturer's warranty or consider alternative insoles if the shoe allows.
Mesh upper appears dirty after washing.
Ensure the machine wash cycle is gentle and uses cold water. For stubborn stains, pre-treat gently with a mild stain remover suitable for synthetics and mesh before washing. Always air dry.
