FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
These trainers are designed for comfort and moderate activity like walking and light jogging. For marathon running, specialized high-performance running shoes are generally recommended.
How do I know if the size is correct?
Refer to Skechers' official sizing chart. The trainers feature adjustable laces to help fine-tune the fit once you have selected your size.
Can I wear these without socks?
Yes, the comfortable interior lining and Heel Pillow® are designed to be worn comfortably with or without socks.
What does 'vegan running style' mean?
It indicates that the shoe is designed with features beneficial for running, and that no animal-derived materials were used in its construction.
How long does the machine washable feature last?
Machine washing can help maintain cleanliness, but repeated harsh washing cycles may eventually affect the material integrity and cushioning. Follow care instructions for longevity.
What is the purpose of M-Strike® technology?
M-Strike® technology is designed to enhance the smooth transition of your foot strike from heel to toe, promoting a more efficient stride.
Are there other colors available?
Yes, the Skechers Glide-Step Vortex series is available in various colors, including White and Charcoal, depending on size and availability.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure your heel is properly positioned at the back of the shoe and that the tongue is not obstructing the entry. Try loosening the laces slightly.
Shoe feels too loose or too tight
Adjust the laces to find your preferred fit. The Hands Free design allows for easy adjustments.
Unusual noise during walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Walk in them for a short period; the noise may dissipate. Ensure no debris is caught in the sole.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The midsole cushioning may naturally compact with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if comfort significantly decreases.
