FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. They feature a comfortable insole and flexible upper, but they do not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for intense running or high-impact training.
How do I clean the Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins®?
Clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Spot clean the Memory Foam™ insole with a damp cloth. Always air dry away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
What is the Skechers Memory Foam™ insole?
It's a cushioning technology designed to mold to your foot's shape, providing enhanced comfort and support for daily wear.
Can I replace the laces on these trainers?
These trainers feature fixed stretch laces as part of their slip-on design. They are not intended to be replaced or tied like traditional laces.
What does 'BOBS® from Skechers® is committed to saving the lives of pets in need' mean?
This means that a portion of the proceeds from the sale of BOBS® products goes towards supporting animal welfare organizations and rescue efforts.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The trainers are not specified as waterproof. The knit and synthetic upper may offer some resistance to light moisture, but they are not designed for use in wet conditions.
What is the Heel Pillow® feature?
The Heel Pillow® is a design element within the shoe's heel construction that provides a soft and comfortable cushioning around the ankle and heel area for a secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels too tight or loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. The Stretch Fit® upper offers flexibility, but proper sizing is key. If slightly tight, wearing them for short periods may help them stretch slightly. If significantly loose, consider if a different size might be more appropriate for your foot shape.
Difficulty slipping foot in initially.
While designed for slip-in ease, some users may need to slightly angle their foot or use a finger to gently pull the heel tab. Ensure the back of the shoe is fully accessible when attempting to slip on.
Insole feels less cushioned over time.
The Skechers Memory Foam™ insole provides initial cushioning. For persistent lack of comfort, consider using them for shorter durations or exploring compatible supportive insoles if they fit within the shoe without compromising the slip-in feature.
Knit upper shows marks or stains.
Gently spot clean with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Rinse the cloth and wipe away any soap residue. Allow to air dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals.
