Full details
The Skechers Slip-ins: Glide-Step Altus is an ideal choice for active adults seeking a blend of effortless wearability and advanced cushioning. This trainer features the convenience of hands-free entry and a supportive, geometric-cushioned midsole, making it perfect for daily walking or casual wear. While these shoes offer exceptional comfort and a vegan-friendly design, users should note that the slip-on nature provides a specific fit that may not be as tight as traditional lace-up performance shoes for high-intensity athletics.

FAQs
Are these shoes actually machine washable?
Yes, they are machine washable. We recommend using a cold, gentle cycle and letting them air dry.
Do I need to tie the laces?
The laces are designed for an adjustable fit, but the primary purpose of the Slip-ins technology is to allow you to step in without needing to manipulate the laces each time.
Is this shoe suitable for vegans?
Yes, this model is made with 100% vegan materials, containing no animal-derived components.
Can I use my own orthotic insoles?
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole is typically designed as part of the shoe's comfort system. While some users remove them for their own, note that this may affect the intended fit and feel.
Are these trainers good for wide feet?
The Stretch Fit mesh upper is designed to accommodate various foot shapes; however, if you have very wide feet, ensure you choose the wide-width version if available.
Troubleshooting
Heel feels like it is slipping out
Ensure the Heel Pillow is properly aligned against your heel and check if the size is correct for your foot width; consider using a slightly thicker sock for a snugger fit.
Shoes feel too tight over the arch
Loosen the decorative laces slightly to allow the Stretch Fit mesh to expand, as the material is designed to adapt to your foot's unique volume.
Memory foam feels compressed after heavy use
Allow the insoles to air out for 24 hours without wearing them; this helps the foam recover its shape and density.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are slip-on trainers, setup is minimal. Ensure you verify your UK size (e.g., 5.5) before your first wear. While the shoes feature adjustable laces, they are designed as a slip-on system, so you should not need to untie them regularly.
To keep your trainers in top condition:
- Cleaning: These shoes are machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold water. It is recommended to place them in a mesh laundry bag to protect the material.
- Drying: Always air dry your Skechers. Do not place them in a tumble dryer, as heat can degrade the memory foam and the integrity of the adhesive.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the vibrancy of the material and the effectiveness of the cushioned midsole.
