Full details

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While comfortable for walking and light activity, these trainers are best suited for casual wear and are not designed for high-impact running.
How do the Hands Free Slip-Ins® work?
The design incorporates a supportive heel structure that allows you to slide your foot in without touching the shoe with your hands.
Can I adjust the tightness of the laces?
No, these trainers feature fixed stretch laces for a secure slip-on fit and are not adjustable.
What is the 'Heel Pillow®' feature?
The Heel Pillow® is a soft, cushioned material around the heel collar that ensures a comfortable and secure fit, preventing slippage.
How often should I machine wash these trainers?
Machine washing can be done as needed for cleaning. However, frequent washing can potentially reduce the lifespan of the materials. Airing them out regularly and spot cleaning can extend the time between washes.
Do these trainers come in other colors or sizes?
Yes, the BOBS Sport™ B Flex series is available in various colors and sizes. Please check product listings for available options.
What does 'vegan' mean in the product description?
Vegan construction means the trainers are made without using any animal-derived materials or by-products.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
The Skechers Hands Free Slip-Ins® and fixed laces are designed for a snug, secure fit. If the fit is not ideal, consider trying a different size or model with adjustable laces. The Memory Foam™ insole may offer some initial firmness that softens with wear.
Difficulty slipping foot in.
Ensure the Heel Pillow™ is positioned correctly and try sliding your foot in smoothly. The design is meant to be a secure fit, so a slight initial resistance is normal. Avoid forcing your foot.
Machine wash results in damage or discoloration.
Always use a wash bag or pillowcase, a gentle cycle with cold water, and mild detergent. Ensure the shoes are fully air-dried away from direct heat. Check the care label for any specific instructions.
Odor development.
Allow shoes to air out completely between wears. Machine washing as per instructions can help refresh them. Consider using odor-absorbing insoles or sprays if the issue persists.
