FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The Skechers Glide-Step Pro - Waverra trainers are designed for comfort during everyday activities and light training. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with advanced support and cushioning tailored for long-distance impact are recommended.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and internal cushioning. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap as per the care instructions.
What makes the Glide-Step® midsole unique?
The Glide-Step® midsole features a geometric design that facilitates a smooth transition from heel strike to toe-off. This design helps to reduce impact and provide a more natural, effortless walking or running motion.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the Skechers sizing chart provided by the retailer. These trainers are listed in UK adult foot sizes. It's best to measure your foot and compare it to the chart for the most accurate fit.
Is this product suitable for vegans?
Yes, the Skechers Glide-Step Pro - Waverra trainers feature a sporty vegan design, meaning they are constructed without animal-derived materials.
How does the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole work?
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole provides a soft, cushioned feel for comfort. The 'Air-Cooled' aspect refers to enhanced breathability within the insole, helping to keep your feet cooler and drier.
What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?
The lifespan of trainers depends on usage frequency, intensity, and care. With regular wear for casual activities and proper care, they should provide comfort and support for a considerable period. For heavy athletic use, replacement may be needed sooner.
Troubleshooting
Torn or damaged mesh upper
Inspect the area for small tears. For minor fraying, consider a fabric adhesive. For larger tears, professional repair might be needed, or it may be time to replace the shoes.
Reduced cushioning over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may compress with heavy use. Gently clean the insole as per care instructions. If significant flattening occurs, consider replacing the insole with a compatible Skechers replacement or a suitable aftermarket insert.
Odors developing inside the shoe
Ensure shoes are completely dry after wear, especially in humid conditions. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or place baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb moisture and odors. Air them out regularly.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
The geometric sole pattern is designed for traction on various surfaces. If slipping occurs, check the sole for embedded debris and clean it. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn down. For very slick surfaces, consider specialized footwear.
