FAQs
What does 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' mean?
It means the shoes are designed with a special heel construction (Heel Pillow™) that allows you to easily slip your feet in without needing to bend down or use your hands to help put them on.
Are the stretch laces functional for tightening?
No, the stretch laces are decorative and tied off. They provide a sporty look but do not adjust the fit of the shoe. The fit is primarily determined by the slip-in design and the shoe's construction.
Can I wear these for running or high-impact sports?
These trainers are designed for comfort and style in everyday wear and light activities like walking or gym workouts. They may not provide the necessary support and cushioning for intense running or high-impact sports.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the Skechers sizing chart for accurate measurements. Given the slip-on nature, a snug but comfortable fit is ideal. If unsure between sizes, consider that the mesh upper offers some flexibility.
Are these shoes suitable for people with wide feet?
The engineered mesh upper offers some flexibility. However, if you typically require a wide-fit shoe, it is recommended to try them on first or check customer reviews regarding width accommodation.
What is the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® midsole is engineered to provide a smoother transition during your stride and enhanced shock absorption, contributing to a more comfortable walking experience.
How long does the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole last?
The durability of the insole depends on usage. With regular wear and proper care, it should maintain its cushioning for a significant period. If cushioning decreases, the insole can be removed and aired out, or potentially replaced.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the Heel Pillow™ area is clear. Gently pull the back tab if needed, but the design should allow effortless entry. If the shoe feels too tight in width, this model may not be suitable.
Insole feels flat or less cushioned over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may need to be refreshed. Remove the insole and air it out. If cushioning significantly degrades, consider a replacement insole.
Shoes retain odor after washing
Ensure shoes are completely dry before storing. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or baking soda inside the shoes when not in use. Ensure the washing machine cycle was sufficiently thorough.
Mesh upper shows wear or tearing
Avoid snagging the mesh on sharp objects. For machine washing, use a mesh bag to protect the upper. Inspect regularly for early signs of wear.
