Product Information

Full details

The Skechers Slip-ins: Glide-Step Trainers are designed for women seeking effortless, flexible comfort for casual wear. Their key benefit is the Hands-Free Slip-ins® technology for easy on and off. A potential caveat is that the upper material is a blend, which might not appeal to those seeking purely natural materials. These trainers feature a Heel Pillow® for a secure fit, an air-quilted fabric and duraleather upper, tied-off stretch laces, a Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole, and a super flexible Glide-Step® geometric midsole, all while being machine washable.

FAQs

Are these suitable for running or intense sports?

While comfortable and flexible, the Skechers Slip-ins: Glide-Step Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear, walking, and everyday comfort. They may not provide the necessary support or durability for high-impact athletic activities.

What does 'Hands-Free Slip-ins®' mean?

It means you can slide your foot into the shoe by simply pushing your heel down into the back opening, without needing to bend over or use your hands to pull them on.

Can I remove the insole?

The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is generally designed to be worn inside the shoe. While it might be possible to remove it, it is not recommended as it could affect the shoe's fit and comfort.

What is Duraleather?

Duraleather is a type of synthetic material that offers a leather-like appearance and feel, designed for enhanced durability and ease of care compared to traditional leather.

How long does the memory foam insole last?

The lifespan of the memory foam insole depends on usage. For optimal comfort and support, it's generally recommended to replace athletic shoes every 300-500 miles of walking or running, or when cushioning feels diminished.

Are these trainers waterproof?

These trainers are not waterproof. They are designed for general wear and are machine washable, but should not be submerged in water for extended periods.

What is the geometric midsole?

The Glide-Step® geometric midsole is designed with a unique, structured pattern that enhances flexibility and provides responsive cushioning for a smoother, more comfortable stride.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

The fit is designed to be snug yet comfortable. If too tight, wear with thin socks initially. If too loose, the Heel Pillow® should provide a secure fit; consider if a size down would be more appropriate, though returns/exchanges might be necessary.

Difficulty slipping foot in.

Ensure you are placing your heel fully into the back of the shoe, utilizing the Slip-ins® opening. Sometimes a slight wiggle helps. The Heel Pillow® might require a brief break-in period.

Machine washing resulted in damage.

Always use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before wearing; never use a machine dryer.

Slight odor after wear.

This is common with any footwear. Ensure feet are dry before wearing, allow shoes to air out between wears, and follow the machine washing instructions regularly.

Pros and Cons

  • Comfortable cushioning with Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole.
  • Lightweight and flexible for everyday activities.
  • Machine washable for simple upkeep.
  • Stylish geometric pattern and geometric midsole design.

Cons

  • Upper material is a mix of textile, synthetic, and metal, not 100% natural.

  • May not offer the same level of arch support as specialized athletic shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear straight out of the box.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult women seeking comfortable, casual footwear. They pair well with athletic wear, jeans, and casual outfits.

Care Instructions:

  1. Machine Washable: Place the trainers in a washing machine, preferably in a mesh laundry bag or pillowcase, using a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent.
  2. Air Dry: DO NOT put the trainers in a dryer. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
  3. Cleaning the Upper: For minor marks on the duraleather or synthetic portions, a slightly damp cloth can be used.
  4. Insole Care: The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can typically be spot cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Ensure it is fully dry before reinserting.
