FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for comfort during walking and casual wear. They feature cushioning and shock absorption but may not provide the specific support and stability required for serious running.
How do the Hands-Free Slip-ins® work?
The unique heel construction is designed to hold its shape, allowing you to easily slide your foot in without bending down or needing to touch the shoe with your hands.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and structural integrity of the shoe. Hand wash and air dry according to the care instructions.
What is the difference between Glide-Step® and Skech-Air®?
Glide-Step® refers to the geometric design of the midsole for a smoother stride, while Skech-Air® is the visible airbag technology within the midsole for enhanced shock absorption.
How do I clean the coral color without it fading?
Use a damp cloth with a very mild soap solution for spot cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water. Always rinse gently with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
What kind of socks should I wear with these trainers?
You can wear them with or without socks. If wearing socks, thin to medium-weight athletic or casual socks are recommended to maintain comfort within the shoe's fit.
Is the insole removable for orthotics?
Yes, the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is typically removable, allowing space for custom or specialized orthotics if needed.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
While these are slip-ins, ensure you have the correct UK size. The stretch laces offer some adjustability, but the primary fit comes from the heel and overall shoe shape. If significantly off, consider a different size.
Discomfort after extended wear
Ensure the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is properly seated. For persistent discomfort, especially if you require specific arch support, consider using custom or over-the-counter insoles designed for your foot type.
Mesh upper appears dirty
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. For more thorough cleaning, follow the care instructions for the upper material. Avoid soaking the entire shoe.
Skech-Air® airbag seems deflated or offers less cushioning
The airbag is designed for shock absorption and longevity. If you suspect a loss of cushioning, ensure you are not exceeding the recommended use cases. For significant issues, contact customer support.
