FAQs

What makes the Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins® unique?

They feature an exclusive Heel Pillow™ that holds your foot securely in place, allowing you to easily slip the shoe on without bending down or using your hands.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities?

These shoes are designed for casual wear and activities like boating or walking. They are not intended for high-impact sports or running, as they lack the specific support and structure required for such activities.

How do I clean the charcoal-infused insole?

The insole can often be removed. Hand wash gently with mild soap and cool water, then allow it to air dry completely away from direct heat. The charcoal infusion helps with odor control.

Can I adjust the laces on these shoes?

No, the shoes feature fixed stretch laces that provide a secure fit without the need for tying or adjustment.

What is the benefit of the Relaxed Fit® design?

The Relaxed Fit® design provides a roomier fit in the toe and forefoot areas, enhancing overall comfort for extended wear.

How does the anti-slip outsole perform?

The Goodyear® rubber outsole is engineered to provide reliable traction on both wet and dry surfaces, enhancing stability and safety.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made from a combination of engineered mesh and faux leather overlays, offering a balance of breathability and durability.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose or too tight.

The Relaxed Fit® design offers a roomier fit. If the shoes feel too loose, ensure your heel is fully seated into the Heel Pillow™. If they feel too tight, ensure no debris is obstructing the foot entry. These shoes do not have adjustable laces.

Difficulty slipping foot in.

Ensure the Heel Pillow™ is allowing space for your heel. Try slightly angling your foot as you slide it in. The 'Hands Free' aspect is designed for ease, but initial use might require a slight adjustment.

Insole feels uncomfortable or flat.

The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® and Memory Arch cushioning are designed for comfort. If additional support is needed, consider purchasing a separate, supportive insole that fits within the Relaxed Fit® design.

Reduced traction on wet surfaces.

While designed with an anti-slip outsole, ensure the sole is clean of mud, oil, or debris, as these can reduce grip. The Goodyear® rubber provides reliable traction but is not infallible on extremely slick surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no setup. Simply wear them as you would any other slip-on shoe. The 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' feature allows you to slide your foot in without manual adjustment.

Compatibility: Designed for adult men, these shoes are suitable for general casual wear. They are compatible with Skechers' range of insoles if additional customization is desired, though they come with advanced cushioning.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris from the engineered mesh and faux leather. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Insole: The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can often be removed. Hand wash gently with mild soap and cool water, then allow it to air dry completely away from direct heat.
  3. Outsole Care: Wipe the Goodyear® rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any dirt that might compromise traction.
  4. Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, as this can damage the materials.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
