Full details

Its key benefit is the Hands Free Slip-ins® technology, allowing for effortless on and off. A potential caveat is that the 'one size fits all' approach to slip-on designs may not suit every foot shape. This laceless moc toe style features a leather upper, a supportive Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole, and Goga Mat Arch™ cushioning, all within a Relaxed Fit® for enhanced comfort.

FAQs

What makes these shoes 'Hands Free Slip-ins®'?

They feature an exclusive Heel Pillow™ and a molded heel panel that allow you to slide your foot in without needing to bend down or use your hands, making them very convenient.

Are these shoes suitable for walking long distances?

Yes, the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole and Goga Mat Arch™ cushioning provide good comfort and support for extended periods of casual walking.

Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather upper and the cushioning insoles. Spot clean as per the care instructions.

What is the 'Relaxed Fit®' design?

Relaxed Fit® means the shoes offer a more spacious fit in the forefoot and toe area compared to standard fits, enhancing overall comfort.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but these shoes are not designed to be waterproof. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.

What type of material is the upper made from?

The upper is made from genuine leather, providing durability and a classic aesthetic.

How should I care for the leather material?

Wipe with a damp cloth for general cleaning. Use a specialized leather cleaner for tougher marks and consider a leather protector spray to maintain its condition and repel moisture.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose initially

The Relaxed Fit® design offers more room. If still uncomfortable, try wearing them with slightly thicker socks. The materials will also break in with wear.

Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe

Ensure the Heel Pillow™ is aligned correctly. Sometimes a slight wiggle or wearing thinner socks can help. The shoe is designed for ease, so if significant force is required, check if you have the correct size.

Odor development

Allow shoes to air out between wears. Use odor-absorbing insoles or baking soda inside the shoes when not in use. Regular cleaning of the insole can also help.

Leather scuffing

Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scuffs, use a black shoe polish or leather conditioner suitable for leather shoes.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Leather Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a leather cleaner specifically designed for black leather can be used. Always test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
  2. Cleaning the Insole: The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can typically be spot-cleaned with a mild soap and water solution. Allow it to air dry completely. Do not machine wash.
  3. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as these can damage the leather and affect the cushioning.
  4. Maintenance: Regularly check the sole for wear and tear. Consider using a leather protectant spray to help repel water and stains.
