FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The Skechers On-the-GO Glacial Ultra - Woodlands boots feature a suede upper, which is not naturally waterproof. They are designed for cold, dry conditions. For protection against moisture, it's recommended to treat them with a water and stain repellent spray made for suede.
How should I clean the sherpa lining?
For light cleaning of the sherpa lining, you can use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution and gently blot the area. Allow it to air dry completely. For deeper cleaning, specialized footwear cleaners for linings may be available, but always spot-test first.
What is the 'Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™' insole?
The Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole provides high-rebound cushioning and responsive feedback. It's designed to offer comfort and support, while the 'Air-Cooled' aspect suggests breathability to help manage foot temperature.
Can I wear these boots in warmer weather?
These boots are specifically designed as 'cold-weather' footwear, featuring a sherpa lining for warmth. While you *can* wear them in warmer weather, they may feel excessively warm and less comfortable due to their insulating properties.
How true to size are these boots?
Skechers generally aims for a true-to-size fit. This specific model is a UK 6.5 for adults. If you typically wear a half size, these should fit well. Consider your usual Skechers sizing or measure your foot and compare to a size chart if unsure, especially if planning to wear thick socks.
What is ULTRA GO® cushioning?
ULTRA GO® cushioning is a lightweight, responsive cushioning technology used by Skechers. It's designed to provide comfort, impact absorption, and energy return, making your steps feel lighter and more comfortable.
Troubleshooting
My feet still feel cold.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate thermal socks. The boots provide significant warmth, but very low temperatures may require additional insulation from your socks. Also, check that the fit isn't too tight, which can restrict circulation.
The suede looks dirty or scuffed.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently clean off surface dirt and restore the nap. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water, as this can damage the suede.
My boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
Like most footwear, these boots may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations at first to allow the materials to conform to your feet. Ensure you have the correct size; a size too small can cause discomfort.
The boots are getting wet in light rain/snow.
While designed for cold weather, the suede upper is not inherently waterproof. It is highly recommended to apply a quality water and stain repellent spray specifically for suede before wearing in potentially damp conditions. Reapply periodically.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
There is no complex setup required for these boots. Simply slide your feet in and adjust for comfort. Ensure you select the correct size (UK 6.5 for this model) to allow for comfortable movement and potential sock layers.
Compatibility
These boots are ideal for casual, cold-weather outfits. They pair well with jeans, leggings, and warm sweaters or jackets. Their black suede finish offers versatility, complementing a wide range of wardrobe choices for cooler seasons. They are designed for general everyday wear and light outdoor activities in dry, cold conditions.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your suede boots:
- Protection: Before first wear, and periodically thereafter, treat the suede with a quality water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede. This helps protect against moisture and dirt.
- Cleaning:
- For dry dirt or scuffs, use a suede brush to gently brush in one direction to remove debris and restore the nap.
- For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be used to lightly rub away marks.
- Avoid using water directly on suede as it can stain. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat, then brush gently.
- Drying: If your boots become wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using boot trees to help maintain their shape when not in use.
