FAQs
How do Skechers Slip-ins work?
Skechers Slip-ins feature an internal heel structure called the Heel Pillow™ that holds the shoe shape, allowing you to easily slide your foot in without needing to bend down or use your hands.
Are these shoes good for wide feet?
The shoes feature a 'Cozy Fit™' upper and stretch laces which offer some flexibility. However, for significantly wide feet, it's recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary.
Can I wear these for running or sports?
These sneakers are designed for comfort and casual wear. They are not intended for high-impact sports or rigorous athletic activities that require specialized support and stability.
How do I clean the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insoles?
The insoles are part of the shoe and can be cleaned by machine washing the entire shoe on a gentle cycle with cold water. Ensure to air dry afterwards.
What is the difference between Contour Foam™ and regular foam?
Contour Foam™ is Skechers' specific midsole technology designed to provide enhanced cushioning and shock absorption, offering a smoother and more comfortable ride compared to standard foam.
Is the NO TIE FIT™ system adjustable?
The NO TIE FIT™ system uses elastic stretch laces that offer a flexible fit. While they are not designed for manual tightening like traditional laces, they provide a secure and adaptive fit for most users.
How long does the cushioning typically last?
The longevity of the cushioning depends on usage. For everyday wear, the Contour Foam™ and Memory Foam® insoles are designed to maintain their comfort properties for a considerable period. Regular cleaning and avoiding harsh conditions will help preserve them.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in initially
Ensure your heel is fully back and use the designated heel tab. The Heel Pillow™ may require a few wears to break in and become more flexible.
Shoes feel too loose or too tight
The shoes are designed with stretch laces for a flexible fit. If too loose, consider an insole for a snugger feel. If too tight, ensure you are not overfilling the shoe with your foot. Minor adjustments can be made by ensuring the stretch laces are not bunched.
Machine washing has caused material to stiffen
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle with cold water and air drying. Avoid high heat and tumble drying. If stiffness occurs, try softening with a leather conditioner (if applicable to the specific upper material) or by wearing them for short periods.
