FAQs
What does 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' mean?
It means the shoe is designed to be put on and taken off without using your hands, allowing you to simply step into them. The Heel Pillow® design helps maintain the shoe's shape for easy entry.
Are these suitable for running or high-impact sports?
These trainers are best suited for casual wear, walking, and light activities. For high-impact sports or serious running, a shoe specifically designed for that purpose would offer better support and cushioning.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the insole is removable, allowing you to replace it with your preferred orthotic or a new cushioned insole if desired.
What is the Heel Pillow®?
The Heel Pillow® is a feature designed to provide a comfortable and secure fit around the heel, preventing the shoe from slipping off and enhancing overall comfort.
How do I know if I chose the right size?
The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box. The Heel Pillow® should gently cradle your heel without causing irritation. Refer to the Skechers sizing chart for specific measurements.
How do the fixed stretch laces work?
These laces are pre-tied and elasticated, providing a secure slip-on fit without the need for manual tying. They contribute to the hands-free convenience of the shoe.
What is the benefit of the BOBS® commitment?
BOBS® from Skechers® partners with animal welfare organizations. Purchasing these trainers helps support their mission to save and help pets in need.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Due to the fixed stretch laces and Stretch Fit® upper, adjustability is limited. Ensure you have selected the correct size. For minor tightness, wearing thin socks may help. For looseness, the Heel Pillow® should provide some secure fit.
Difficulty slipping foot in.
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is in its correct position. Try a slightly different angle when inserting your foot. The Hands Free Slip-ins® feature is designed for ease, but may require a brief adjustment period.
Material appears soiled or discolored.
Follow the care instructions for cleaning the upper. Use a damp cloth and mild soap for spot cleaning. For more significant soiling, refer to the detailed care guide.
Insole feels flat or less cushioned over time.
The Memory Foam™ insole is designed to contour to your foot. If comfort reduces significantly, consider replacing the insole with a compatible aftermarket one.
