Full details
These Skechers Glide-Step trainers are designed for adult women seeking effortless, flexible comfort for casual wear. Their key benefit is the hands-free slip-in design, allowing for easy on and off. A potential caveat is their suitability primarily for light activities rather than intense athletic performance. The trainers feature a vegan construction, a Heel Pillow for support, an air-quilted fabric and duraleather upper, tied-off stretch laces, a Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole, and a flexible Glide-Step geometric midsole.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Skechers Glide-Step trainers are designed for casual wear and light walking. They may not provide the necessary support and cushioning for high-impact activities like running.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the UK sizing guide. These trainers are designed for a comfortable fit, and the unique slip-in design accommodates a standard fit.
Can the laces be adjusted?
The laces on these trainers are decorative and tied off. They are not designed to be adjusted for a tighter or looser fit.
What makes the 'Glide-Step' technology unique?
Glide-Step technology features a geometrically designed midsole that provides superior flexibility and a smoother transition during walking, enhancing overall comfort.
How often should I machine wash these trainers?
Machine wash only when necessary, such as when they become soiled or develop odors. Follow the care instructions for best results and to prolong the life of the trainers.
Are these trainers truly vegan?
Yes, the description states they are made with vegan materials, meaning no animal products were used in their construction.
What is the purpose of the 'Heel Pillow'?
The Heel Pillow is an integral part of the Skechers Hands-Free Slip-ins® design. It helps to securely hold your foot in place while allowing for easy slip-on entry without needing to bend down.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight.
While the stretch laces are not adjustable, ensure you have selected the correct size. The Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole may mold to your foot over time for a better fit.
Difficulty slipping the shoe on.
Ensure your heel is properly aligned with the Heel Pillow. For a slightly easier slip-on, ensure socks are smooth and not too thick.
Odors developing after wear.
Allow shoes to air out completely between wears. Machine washing as per care instructions can help eliminate odors.
Stains on the fabric or duraleather.
For minor stains, use a damp cloth. For more significant stains, machine wash following the care instructions. Test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
