Product Information
Full details
These Skechers Glide-Step Flow trainers are designed for active boys who need comfortable and secure footwear for everyday play. The key benefit is the adaptive closure system that ensures a snug fit, allowing for unrestricted movement. A potential consideration is that the fixed stretch laces may not be suitable for children who require a fully adjustable lacing system. These trainers feature a lightweight mesh and synthetic upper, fixed stretch laces, an adjustable hook-and-loop strap, a cushioned comfort insole, and a geometric Glide-Step® midsole for enhanced comfort and support.

FAQs
Are these trainers machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the suede material. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
How do I know if I've selected the correct size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe when the child is standing. The hook-and-loop strap should allow for a snug but not tight fit.
What is the Glide-Step® midsole for?
The Glide-Step® midsole features a geometric design that provides a smooth, responsive ride and enhanced cushioning, contributing to overall comfort during movement.
Can the stretch laces be replaced?
The stretch laces are fixed as part of the design. While they offer convenience, they are not designed to be replaced with traditional laces.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is primarily constructed from lightweight mesh and synthetic materials, with suede accents.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for active play and general sports activities. For highly specialized or intense sports, specific athletic footwear may be more appropriate.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the hook-and-loop strap for a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure the correct size has been selected.
Difficulty cleaning the suede material
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, test a mild cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid excessive water.
Shoes losing shape after wear
Ensure the shoes are properly stored when not in use. Use shoe trees if available, or stuff with paper to help maintain their form.
