FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Skechers Skech-Air® Summits Trainers are best suited for walking, casual wear, and light gym activities. They are not designed for high-impact running due to limited ankle support and specialized cushioning.
How do I clean the engineered mesh upper?
For the mesh upper, use a damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. For more stubborn marks, a soft brush with a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean damp cloth. Ensure to air dry completely.
What does 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' mean?
It means you can slide your foot into the shoe without needing to bend down or use your hands to pull them on. The design, including the Heel Pillow®, facilitates this easy entry.
Are these shoes waterproof?
These trainers are not waterproof. The engineered mesh upper is breathable, which means it is not designed to keep water out.
What is the Skech-Air® midsole?
The Skech-Air® midsole is a cushioning technology that features a visible air-infused unit. It provides enhanced shock absorption and support for comfort during wear.
Can I replace the insole?

Are these trainers available in other colors?
While this guide focuses on the Black/White colorway, Skechers often offers various color options for their popular series. Please check the product listings for available colors.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too loose or too tight
While the laces are fixed, the Heel Pillow® is designed to secure the foot. If it feels consistently loose, consider if the size is correct. If it feels too tight, the fixed laces and upper may not accommodate wider feet as well as adjustable laces.
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe
Ensure your heel is fully back in the shoe. The Heel Pillow® is designed to aid entry. If resistance is met, try a shoehorn for initial wears until the shoe molds slightly to your foot. Avoid forcing your foot in.
Insole feels flat after some use
The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole provides cushioning that may compress over time. For continued comfort, consider replacing the insoles with a new pair of Skechers insoles or compatible aftermarket insoles.
Exterior shows scuffs or dirt
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. For mesh areas, a soft brush can help remove debris. Always allow to air dry.
