FAQs
Are these suitable for running or high-impact exercise?
No, the Skechers Glide-Step Gratify - Pace trainers are designed for casual wear and light walking. They lack the specialized support and cushioning required for intense athletic activities.
How do I clean the white/silver colorway?
Use a soft cloth with mild soap and water to gently clean the mesh and synthetic materials. For the insoles, hand wash and air dry. Avoid bleach or harsh detergents.
Can I adjust the laces?
These trainers feature a fixed stretch-laced front for a slip-on design. While they are not designed for traditional lacing, the stretch laces offer some flexibility.
What makes the 'Glide-Step' technology special?
Glide-Step® technology refers to the midsole design, which aims to provide lightweight, responsive cushioning to make walking feel smoother and more comfortable.
Is the 'Heel Pillow®' removable?
The Heel Pillow® is an integrated part of the shoe's structure designed for a secure fit and is not intended to be removed.
What is the main benefit of Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins®?
The primary benefit is the ability to put on and take off the shoes without bending down or using your hands, offering significant convenience.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Skechers. For this model, ensure there is enough room in the toe box and that the heel is snug but not uncomfortable.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot in
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is fully extended. Slightly loosen the stretch laces if possible, or use a shoe horn for initial entry until the shoe conforms to your foot.
Slightly tight fit
Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow the materials to stretch and mold to your foot shape. The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole will also compress slightly over time.
Odor buildup
Remove the insoles and air them out separately. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or place baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure shoes are fully dry before wearing.
Reduced cushioning over time
While designed for durability, cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the insoles with new Skechers insoles or compatible aftermarket options for renewed comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Suitable for adult women seeking casual footwear. They pair well with jeans, leggings, and casual dresses.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the engineered mesh upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Insole: The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can typically be removed. Hand wash with mild soap and water, then air dry completely away from direct heat.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally. Do not place them in a dryer or near a heat source, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and condition.
