FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are optimized for walking and casual wear, offering excellent cushioning and comfort. They are not specifically designed as running shoes and may lack the targeted support and stability required for high-impact running.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. The materials, especially the engineered mesh and cushioning, can be damaged by the washing machine cycle. Hand wash gently as per the care instructions.
How do the 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' work?
The unique heel construction is designed to create an opening that allows you to easily slide your foot in without needing to bend down or use your hands to pull the shoe on. The Heel Pillow™ helps to secure your foot once inside.
What is the difference between HYPER BURST® and other Skechers cushioning?
HYPER BURST® is a super-lightweight and highly responsive foam cushioning that provides exceptional energy return and a springy feel, distinct from more traditional EVA or foam compounds.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability, not waterproofing. These trainers are best suited for dry conditions. For wet weather, consider waterproof footwear options.
How do I determine the correct UK shoe size?
Refer to the Skechers official sizing chart, which usually provides measurements in centimeters or inches corresponding to UK, US, and EU sizes. Ensure you measure your foot accurately for the best fit.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole is removable. You can replace it with custom orthotics or other insoles, provided they fit comfortably within the shoe without affecting the slip-on design.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose
While designed for slip-on ease, ensure the Heel Pillow™ is properly engaging your heel. The tied-off stretch laces offer some adjustment; ensure they are snug but not overly tight. For a more secure fit, consider alternative lacing methods if applicable to your comfort level, though the design prioritizes slip-on function.
Discomfort in the arch area
The Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole provides cushioning. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size. Some users may prefer to add their own insoles, but ensure they are thin enough not to compromise the slip-on fit.
Mesh upper seems dirty or stained
Use a soft brush or damp cloth with a mild soap solution to gently clean the affected area. Blot with a clean, damp cloth and allow to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or heavy scrubbing.
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the Heel Pillow™ is not obstructed. Sometimes, a slight twist of the shoe as you insert your foot can help. If the shoe is new, it may require a few wears to break in the materials around the heel.
