FAQs
What does 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' mean?
It means you can put on and take off the sandals without bending down or using your hands, thanks to a specially designed heel structure.
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The sandals feature a gore instep strap which offers some flexibility. However, they are designed for standard widths. If you have significantly wide feet, they might feel snug.
Can I machine wash these sandals?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and construction. Spot clean with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
What is the 'Heel Pillow®' feature?
The Heel Pillow® is an internal cushioning system designed to provide a soft, secure, and comfortable feel around the heel, enhancing the slip-in experience.
How does the BOBS® from Skechers® commitment work?
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of BOBS from Skechers® products goes towards helping animals in need, supporting shelters and rescue organizations.
Are these sandals waterproof?
These sandals are not designed to be waterproof. They are made from vegan leather and fabric components, which can be damaged by prolonged exposure to water.
What is the best use case for these sandals?
They are best suited for casual, everyday wear, offering convenience and comfort for light walking and relaxing.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure your foot is entering the sandal at a natural angle. The Heel Pillow® and gore strap are designed to flex, but a sharp or forced entry might feel resistant initially. Try wearing them for a short period to let the materials adapt to your foot shape.
Sandal feels loose or slips off during walking
Verify you have selected the correct size. The Hands Free Slip-ins® design relies on a snug fit. If the sandal still feels too loose, consider adding an insole or exploring other Skechers models with adjustable straps.
Discoloration or material damage from cleaning
Always use mild soap and a damp (not wet) cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. For stubborn stains, test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first. Ensure proper air drying and avoid direct heat sources.
Foot odor after wear
Allow sandals to air out completely between wears. Sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the footbed overnight to absorb odors. Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.
