FAQs
What makes these trainers 'Hands Free Slip-ins®'?
The Hands Free Slip-ins® design features a unique heel structure and collar design that allows you to slide your foot into the shoe without using your hands, making them exceptionally convenient.
Are these trainers suitable for running or athletic training?
While they offer excellent comfort and flexibility for everyday activities, they are designed as casual trainers and may not provide the necessary support, cushioning, or durability for high-impact athletic training or running.
How do I clean the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
The insole can typically be spot-cleaned with a mild soap and water solution. Allow it to air dry completely before wearing the shoes again.
What is the purpose of the Heel Pillow®?
The Heel Pillow® is a distinctive design element that provides extra cushioning and support around the heel, helping to secure your foot comfortably in place and enhance the 'slip-in' functionality.
Can I adjust the stretch laces?
No, the stretch laces are pre-tied and decorative. They are part of the slip-on design and are not meant to be adjusted for fit.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The materials used are not designed to be waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
What does 'Glide-Step®' refer to?
Glide-Step® refers to the geometric midsole design that enhances shock absorption and promotes a smoother, more flexible stride, contributing to the overall comfort of the trainers.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight after slipping them on.
The fit is intended to be snug yet comfortable due to the Heel Pillow® and stretch laces. If it feels significantly off, ensure your foot is fully seated. If the issue persists, consider trying a different size or style.
Reduced cushioning or comfort over time.
The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may require refreshing. Ensure the shoes are clean and dry, and allow them to air out. For persistent issues, the insole might be nearing the end of its effective lifespan.
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe.
Ensure the Heel Pillow® area is clear and that you are fully inserting your heel. Sometimes, socks can affect the ease of slipping on; try with different sock thicknesses or without socks if appropriate.
Upper material showing signs of wear.
Follow the recommended care instructions for cleaning and drying. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or abrasive surfaces. Minor scuffs on duraleather can sometimes be addressed with a specialized leather cleaner or conditioner.
