FAQs
How do the Hands-Free Slip-Ins® work?
The design features a unique structure around the heel (Heel Pillow™) that allows you to slide your foot in without needing to touch the shoe or use your hands. The shoe is shaped to gently cradle your heel as you step in.
Can the stretch laces be adjusted?
No, the stretch laces are fixed and decorative. They provide a snug look but do not offer adjustability. The primary fit is secured by the shoe's construction and the adaptive closure system.
Are these shoes suitable for running competitions?
These shoes are designed for everyday wear, playground activities, and light athletic use. For competitive running, specialized shoes with advanced support and features might be more appropriate.
What is the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
It's a cushioned insole designed to provide enhanced comfort and breathability. The 'Air-Cooled' aspect refers to perforations that help with air circulation, keeping feet cooler.
How should I clean these trainers?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or soaking. Always air dry them away from direct heat.
What is the benefit of the Heel Pillow™?
The Heel Pillow™ is a comfort cushion integrated into the collar of the shoe. It helps to securely and comfortably hold the heel in place, contributing to the easy slip-in experience and overall comfort.
Are there other colors available?
Yes, this model, the GO RUN 400 V2™ - Tetra Speed, is available in other colors. Please check the product listings for Skechers or specific retailers for available options.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe
Ensure the heel is fully pushed down. Slightly widening the opening by gently pulling the sides apart might help. Ensure the correct size is being used.
Insole feels uncomfortable or flattened
Remove the insole and check for any debris. Ensure it's completely dry if recently cleaned. For persistent discomfort, consider if the insole meets your child's specific foot support needs.
Mesh upper shows signs of wear
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing that could damage the mesh. Ensure shoes are dried properly to prevent material degradation.
Slight odor developing
Ensure the shoes are aired out regularly, especially after activity. Remove insoles and allow both to dry completely. Using a shoe deodorizer spray can also help.
