Product Information
Full details
The Skechers Glide-Step® Pro - Waverra trainers are designed for adults seeking comfortable, stylish athletic footwear with a modern aesthetic. Their key benefit lies in the combination of a lightweight, responsive Glide-Step® midsole and a breathable engineered mesh upper for all-day wear. A potential caveat is that the stretch laces may require adjustment for a personalized fit, and they are specifically designed as trainers, not for highly specialized athletic performance.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The Skechers Glide-Step® Pro - Waverra trainers are designed for comfort and style in everyday activities and light training. For marathon running, specialized high-performance running shoes with specific cushioning and support features are recommended.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Skechers or the retailer. Ensure you measure your foot length accurately, typically from the heel to the tip of the longest toe, and compare it to the UK sizing guide.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and internal cushioning systems. Hand wash and air dry as described in the care instructions.
What does 'vegan design' mean for these shoes?
A vegan design means that no animal-derived materials were used in the construction of the shoe. The Skechers Glide-Step® Pro - Waverra trainers are crafted using synthetic and plant-based materials.
How does the Glide-Step® midsole enhance my walk?
The Glide-Step® midsole features a unique geometric design that is engineered to create a smoother transition from heel strike to toe-off, providing a responsive feel and enhanced cushioning with every step.
Is the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole removable?
Often, Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insoles are designed to be removable, allowing for easier cleaning or the option to replace them with custom orthotics if needed. Check the shoe's interior to confirm if the insole can be lifted out.
What is the primary benefit of the engineered jacquard mesh upper?
The engineered jacquard mesh upper provides a highly breathable and flexible fit. It allows for excellent air circulation to keep feet cool and adapts to the contours of your foot for added comfort.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel too loose or too tight.
The stretch laces are tied off. You can adjust the fit by gently pulling or loosening the knot where the laces are secured. For a more permanent adjustment, untie the knot, re-lace to your preference, and retie securely.
Insole feels uncomfortable or shifted.
Ensure the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is properly seated. If it's removable, take it out, air it out, and reinsert it ensuring it lies flat and is centered within the shoe.
Shoes develop an odor.
To combat odor, remove the insoles and allow them to air out completely. Sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the shoes overnight, then shake it out in the morning. Ensure shoes are fully dry before wearing again, and consider rotating between pairs if possible.
Traction is insufficient on wet surfaces.
These trainers are designed for general use. For activities requiring maximum grip on wet surfaces, consider specialized footwear. Ensure the outsole is clean, as dirt can reduce traction.

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. The tied-off stretch laces can be adjusted by gently pulling or loosening them to achieve your desired fit. No assembly or configuration is required.
Compatibility: The Skechers Glide-Step® Pro - Waverra trainers are designed for adult male footwear sizes. They are compatible with standard athletic socks.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and dust from the engineered mesh upper. For more stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be applied sparingly with the cloth, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Wipe the sole with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
- Insole Care: The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can often be removed. If removable, it can be hand-washed with mild soap and cold water and air-dried completely. Ensure the insole is fully dry before reinserting to prevent odors.
- Drying: Always air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or intense sunlight, as this can damage the materials and affect their shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box to protect them from dust and damage.
