FAQs

How do the 'Hands Free Slip-ins' work?

The Skechers Bounder shoes feature an exclusive Heel Pillow™ and a TOUCHLESS FIT® design that allows your child to slide their foot into the shoe without needing to use their hands, thanks to the structured heel and flexible upper.

Are these shoes suitable for running and sports?

These shoes are designed for active play and everyday wear, offering comfort and flexibility. While they provide good traction and cushioning, for specialized high-impact sports, dedicated athletic footwear might offer more tailored support.

Can my child wear these without socks?

While the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole helps with comfort and breathability, wearing socks is generally recommended to help absorb moisture, reduce friction, and keep the shoes fresh.

How do I clean these Skechers Bounder shoes?

It is recommended to hand wash these shoes. Use a soft cloth with mild soap and water to clean the mesh and synthetic upper. Air dry them away from direct heat. Do not machine wash.

What is the Heel Pillow™?

The Heel Pillow™ is an exclusive Skechers design feature built into the heel of the shoe that provides extra cushioning and helps hold the foot securely in place for a comfortable, hands-free slip-in experience.

Are the laces adjustable?

The Skechers Bounder features stretch laces that provide a secure and comfortable fit. These laces are not designed for traditional manual adjustment or tying.

What age group are these shoes intended for?

These shoes are specifically designed for kids, providing features that cater to their active lifestyle and desire for independence in putting on their shoes.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The mesh and synthetic upper provides breathability. While they can handle light splashes, these shoes are not designed to be waterproof. For wet conditions, protective footwear is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Shoes are difficult to slip on hands-free.

Ensure the shoe is the correct size. If it's too small, the Heel Pillow™ may not engage properly. Guide the foot straight into the shoe; a slight wiggle can help. For initial wears, a small assist with a finger may be needed until the material molds slightly.

Shoe feels too loose or tight.

The fit of slip-ins is crucial. If too loose, the heel may slip out. If too tight, it will be hard to put on. Verify the child's current foot size against the shoe size. Consider trying a half size up or down if available.

Foot odor develops.

Ensure the shoes are aired out after each wear. If possible, remove insoles to dry thoroughly. Using moisture-wicking socks and/or foot powder can also help prevent odor buildup.

Lack of traction or shoes feel slippery.

Check the outsole for dirt, mud, or small stones that might be impacting grip. Clean the outsole thoroughly. If the tread is significantly worn, it may be time to consider new footwear for optimal safety.

Care

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Skechers Bounder shoes, follow these care instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic upper with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Cleaning the Outsole: Use a brush (like an old toothbrush) to remove dirt and debris from the flexible traction outsole.
  3. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
  4. Odor Control: If odors develop, remove insoles (if removable) to air out, or use shoe deodorizers.
  5. Avoid Machine Washing: It is generally not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the materials and construction.
