FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The Skechers Glide-Step® Pro - Waverra trainers are designed for comfort and light athletic activities. For marathon running, specialized shoes with advanced support and cushioning tailored for endurance may be more appropriate.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap for specific areas is the preferred method to preserve the materials and structure.
What does 'vegan design' mean for these shoes?
A vegan design means that no animal products or by-products were used in the manufacturing of these trainers. This includes the upper materials, adhesives, and any other components.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Try them on with the type of socks you normally wear. There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with no heel slippage.
What is the primary benefit of the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® midsole is engineered with a geometric design to provide smooth transitions from heel to toe and enhance shock absorption, contributing to a more comfortable and efficient stride.
How often should I clean my trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed, depending on usage and environmental conditions. For general maintenance, wiping them down after dusty wear or a light rinse for spots is sufficient. Deep cleaning should be done less frequently.
Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?
While the mesh upper offers breathability, it is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or moderately damp conditions. For heavy rain or wet environments, waterproof footwear would be more suitable.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or pressure points
Ensure you have the correct size. If discomfort persists, try wearing them with socks or consider if the cushioning level is sufficient for your activity.
Shoe odor
Remove the insoles and air them out separately. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Regularly clean the insoles as per care instructions.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may lose some of its initial loft. Consider replacing the insoles if significant reduction in comfort is noticed after extended use.
Laces feel loose
While designed for a slip-on feel, ensure the tied-off stretch laces are snug enough for your comfort. If they continuously loosen, inspect the knotting.
