FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Skechers Glide-Step trainers are designed for casual wear and light walking. They are not intended for high-impact activities like running.
Can I adjust the laces?
The laces on this model are for decorative purposes and are tied off. They cannot be adjusted to change the fit of the shoe.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a little room at the toe and your heel is comfortably seated in the Heel Pillow®. If your heel slips excessively or your toes feel cramped, the size may not be correct for your foot.
How durable is the duraleather upper?
Duraleather is designed to be durable for casual wear. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or abrasive materials that could scuff or damage the finish.
Are these shoes waterproof?
These trainers are not designed to be waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions and can be machine washed, but should not be submerged in water for extended periods.
What is the benefit of the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® midsole features a unique geometric design that enhances cushioning, provides a smooth transition from heel to toe, and offers a responsive feel with every step.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, you can wear these trainers with or without socks, depending on your preference and the weather. The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole provides comfort either way.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
While the laces are decorative, ensure you have selected the correct size. If the fit is still not ideal, consider the Heel Pillow® and the overall fit. For minor tightness, wearing them for a short period may help them conform. For persistent issues, explore other Skechers models that might offer a different fit profile.
Difficulty slipping feet in.
Ensure your heel is positioned correctly in the Heel Pillow® and push down firmly. The hands-free design is intended for ease, but some users may need a moment to adjust their foot placement. Avoid trying to force the shoe on.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces or wear them for a few more times. If the sound persists, a very small amount of talcum powder or baking soda sprinkled inside the shoe (away from the insole if removable) can help absorb moisture that may cause squeaking.
Tread wear on the sole.
Normal wear and tear can occur with regular use. If significant wear appears quickly, check for any sharp objects or abrasive surfaces you may be walking on regularly. The Glide-Step midsole is designed for flexibility, so some initial give is expected.
