FAQs
How do the Hands-Free Slip-ins® work?
The shoes feature an anatomically contoured heel and an exclusive Heel Pillow™ that holds your foot securely in place, allowing you to slip them on without bending or using your hands.
Are these shoes suitable for running or intense sports?
These sneakers are designed for comfort and ease of wear during casual activities, walking, and light exercise. They are not engineered to provide the necessary support and stability for high-impact sports like running or rigorous training.
Can I adjust the laces?
The laces are tied off and primarily for aesthetic purposes. They are not designed for adjustment to tighten or loosen the fit, as the shoe's fit is achieved through the slip-in mechanism and the upper's design.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made of an engineered mesh, which provides breathability and flexibility for a comfortable fit.
Are these shoes available in other colors or sizes?
Yes, the Glide-Step Altus series comes in various colorways and sizes. Please check the product listings for available options.
How should I dry the shoes after washing?
Always air dry the shoes. Do not put them in a clothes dryer, as high heat can damage the materials and cushioning.
What does 'vegan' mean in this context?
It means the shoes are constructed using only synthetic and plant-based materials, with no animal-derived components used in their manufacturing.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose after slipping on
While the stretch laces are primarily decorative, ensure your heel is fully settled into the Heel Pillow™. If a tighter fit is desired, consider using aftermarket elastic or no-tie shoelaces, though this may affect the slip-in functionality.
Reduced cushioning over time
The cushioning may naturally reduce with extensive use. To help maintain it, follow the machine washing and air-drying instructions carefully. Avoid exposing the shoes to extreme heat, which can degrade the foam.
Odors developing
Wash the shoes according to the machine washable instructions. Ensure they are completely dry before wearing them again. Using odor-absorbing insoles or sprays can also help.
