FAQs
What makes these trainers 'Hands-Free Slip-Ins®'?
The design incorporates a unique structure and a supportive Heel Pillow® that allows you to slide your foot into the shoe without needing to bend down or use your hands.
Are the stretch laces functional for tightening?
No, the stretch laces are primarily decorative and contribute to the slip-on design. They are tied off and not intended for adjustment to tighten the fit.
How do I clean the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
If removable, clean the insole with mild soap and water using a damp cloth. Allow it to air dry completely before placing it back in the shoe.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While the trainers offer some protection, the engineered mesh upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.
What is the benefit of the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® midsole features a geometric design that enhances cushioning and promotes smoother transitions from heel to toe, improving overall walking comfort.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
Ensure there is comfortable space for your toes, and your heel is securely held by the Heel Pillow® without slipping. Refer to Skechers' sizing chart for precise measurements if unsure.
What is the Skech-Air® airbag for?
The visible Skech-Air® airbag integrated into the midsole provides additional cushioning and shock absorption, contributing to a more comfortable and responsive ride.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially.
The engineered mesh and cushioning may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.
Difficulty slipping foot in.
Ensure the Heel Pillow® area is clear and your foot is positioned correctly. Gently slide your foot in. The Heel Pillow® is designed to hold the heel securely once on.
Cushioning feels less responsive over time.
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® and Skech-Air® airbag can lose some responsiveness with prolonged heavy use. Clean the insoles and ensure the shoe is properly aired out. For significant degradation, consider replacement.
Upper material looks dirty quickly.
Engineered mesh can be porous. Clean regularly with a damp cloth as outlined in the care instructions to maintain appearance.
