Product Information

Full details

The Skechers Glide-Step Vortex Avalin trainers are designed for active adults seeking a balance of comfort and efficiency in their daily footwear. Featuring advanced M-Strike and Glide-Step midsole technology, these trainers promote a smooth, natural gait during movement. While they offer excellent cushioning and a convenient slip-on design, users should note that the no-tie bungee system is best suited for casual exercise and everyday wear rather than high-intensity competitive athletics.

FAQs

Can I use these for marathon running?

These trainers are designed for walking and light fitness activities, not for long-distance competitive running.

Are they true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adult trainers.

Can I replace the bungee laces with regular ones?

The eyelets are designed specifically for the bungee system; regular laces may not fit correctly or stay secure.

Are they suitable for rainy weather?

The mesh upper is breathable, which means it is not waterproof and will absorb water if walking through heavy rain.

Should I remove the insoles before washing?

Yes, removing the insoles before putting the trainers in the washing machine helps them dry faster and ensures a more thorough clean.

Troubleshooting

The shoe feels too loose after wearing for a while

The bungee lacing is fixed. If the shoe feels loose, consider adding a thin aftermarket insole to take up volume.

Odors developing inside the shoe

Since they are machine washable, run them through a gentle cold wash cycle. Always ensure they are completely air-dried before the next use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight construction
  • Easy to put on and remove via bungee laces
  • Machine washable for simple cleaning
  • Excellent transition support with M-Strike tech
  • Highly breathable mesh materials

Cons

  • Not intended for technical trail running
  • Bungee laces do not allow for custom tightness adjustments
  • Limited ankle support due to low-cut design

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trainers come with a pre-strung bungee lacing system. Simply slide your foot into the shoe. Since there are no traditional laces to tie, ensure you select the correct UK size for your foot to avoid excessive movement.

Compatibility:

These are performance lifestyle shoes best suited for neutral gaits on paved or indoor surfaces.

Care:

  • Machine Washing: To wash, remove the insoles if possible, place the shoes in a laundry bag, and use a gentle cycle with cold water. Use mild detergent.
  • Drying: Air dry the trainers in a shaded area. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as high heat can damage the foam and adhesive components.
