FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for school?
Yes, their durable design, comfortable Air-Cooled Memory Foam, and flexible traction outsole make them well-suited for the demands of school and playground activities.
What does 'flexible traction outsole' mean?
It means the sole of the shoe is designed to bend and move with the foot naturally, while also providing excellent grip on various surfaces to prevent slipping.
Can these be machine washed?
It is generally not recommended to machine wash Skechers trainers with Air-Cooled Memory Foam, as it can damage the materials and compromise the cushioning. Spot cleaning is advised.
Are these trainers waterproof?
These Skechers Bounder trainers are not explicitly designed or marketed as waterproof. They offer standard protection against light moisture but are not intended for use in heavy rain or wet conditions.
What is 'Air-Cooled Memory Foam'?
Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam is a specialized insole that conforms to the shape of your foot for personalized comfort. It also incorporates air channels to enhance breathability, helping to keep feet cooler and drier.
What is the closure type (e.g., laces, hook-and-loop)?
Info needed: [The product description does not specify the closure type for this specific variant. Please check product images or packaging for details.]
Are these true to size?
Skechers generally run true to size. However, for children's footwear, it's always recommended to measure your child's foot and consult the Skechers size chart to ensure the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel uncomfortable or rub.
Ensure the correct size has been purchased, as children's feet grow quickly. Check socks for proper fit and material. Allow for a short break-in period for the memory foam to fully adapt to the foot.
Outsole seems to be losing grip.
Inspect the outsole for excessive dirt or debris lodged in the traction pattern. Clean thoroughly with a brush and water. If the sole appears excessively worn or smooth, it may be time for new trainers.
Odour build-up inside the shoes.
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam is designed for breathability, but regular airing out can help. If possible, remove the insoles to air dry. Consider using shoe deodorizers or sprinkling baking soda inside overnight (and shaking it out in the morning).

These trainers require minimal 'setup' beyond ensuring the correct size and fit. When trying them on, ensure there is adequate toe room and the heel doesn't slip. They are compatible with a wide range of casual and athletic wear for children. For care, follow these general guidelines:
- Cleaning: For most dirt and scuffs, gently wipe the trainers with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the materials and memory foam.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, which can cause materials to shrink or warp.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve material integrity.
- Insole Care: The Air-Cooled Memory Foam can be refreshed by removing and airing it out periodically, if possible.
