FAQs
Are these shoes actually hands-free?
Yes, they feature a unique Heel Pillow design that allows you to step in and secure the shoe without using your hands to pull the heel up.
Can I use these for heavy construction work?
While they feature durable leather and Goodyear outsoles, they are designed as all-terrain trainers and not as steel-toe safety boots.
How do I clean the memory foam insoles?
The insoles are best cleaned by removing them from the shoe and wiping them with a damp cloth. Allow them to air dry completely before reinserting.
What does 'Relaxed Fit' mean?
Relaxed Fit is a construction style from Skechers that offers a more spacious feel in the toe box and forefoot area compared to a standard athletic fit.
Can these be washed in a machine?
Because the upper contains leather, machine washing is generally discouraged as it can damage the material. Stick to hand cleaning with a damp cloth.
Troubleshooting
Heel slipping when walking
Ensure the shoe is the correct size; the Hands Free design requires a precise fit at the heel to function properly.
Outer sole losing traction
Check the tread for embedded rocks or caked mud, and clean with a stiff brush to restore the rubber grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Skechers last, it is recommended to keep them away from excessive heat sources when drying. Because these shoes contain leather components, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud or debris. For the mesh areas, a damp cloth with mild soap can be used to spot clean. Given the 'Relaxed Fit' architecture, these shoes are compatible with most standard orthotics if you choose to remove the original Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole. Always ensure your fit is correct by checking the heel stability; the hands-free mechanism relies on the Heel Pillow gripping your foot securely.
