FAQs
What makes these trainers 'Hands Free'?
The Skechers Slip-ins® design features a specially constructed heel that allows you to slide your foot in without needing to bend down or use your hands.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
They are suitable for light jogging and everyday activities. For high-intensity or long-distance running, specialized running shoes might offer more targeted support.
How do I wash the trainers?
You can machine wash them on a gentle cycle with cold water. Always air dry them afterward and avoid high heat.
What does 'vegan' mean in the product description?
It means the trainers are made entirely without any animal-derived materials or by-products.
How does the M-Strike® technology work?
M-Strike® technology is designed to help promote a more fluid and efficient stride by optimizing the angle of the foot strike, aiding in forward momentum.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, the laces are replaceable. You can use standard shoelaces or opt for alternative lacing systems if desired.
What is the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® midsole is engineered to provide a smooth, gliding sensation with each step, contributing to overall comfort and reducing fatigue.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure laces are loosened and the Heel Pillow® is not obstructed. Gently pull the heel tab to widen the opening.
Laces come undone frequently
Double-knot the laces or consider replacing them with elastic no-tie laces for ultimate convenience.
Reduced cushioning over time
While the ULTRA LIGHT midsole is durable, prolonged heavy use may gradually reduce its responsiveness. Consider rotating with another pair of shoes.
Material feels stiff initially
The engineered mesh and vegan materials may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to mold to your feet.
