Whether she’s always on the go, is a style queen or just loves comfort to help her get on with her everyday, there’s a perfect gift for your mum this Mother’s Day.

Mother’s Day is a wonderful opportunity to show the mums in our lives some appreciation for all that they do. From the hundreds of tiny things that often go unnoticed, to being there when we need them most, there’s so much to say “thank you” for. 

And while the usual bunch of flowers is lovely, why not get her something this year that will last long after the blooms have wilted, something she’ll use again and again? There are all sorts of mums – sporty, stylish, social, strong, successful, we could go on – but most mums love things that make their lives simpler, such as Skechers Slip-ins. These hands-free styles can be put on in a flash, are built for comfort, come in a range of cool designs, and are even machine-washable – everything a busy mum appreciates. Here are some gift ideas for every kind of mum.

She’s always on the move

Whether she’s walking the kids to school in the morning, or catching up with a friend at the weekend in the park with a coffee, mums who are always on their feet want shoes that are quick and simple to put on and provide support where they need it, whilst also looking good.

Skechers Slip-ins Glide-Step Pro, €100, are designed with Skechers Heel Pillow®, an Air-Cooled Memory Foam® comfort insole and a Glide-Step® geometric cushioned midsole.

While the Skechers Slip-ins: Stamina Sport, €100, offer effortless comfort with a mesh upper part and leather and synthetic overlays.

She’s super stylish

If your mum is the one everyone goes to for outfit advice, and is always impeccably dressed, she’ll appreciate shoes that offer the style she loves, with the ease of a slip-in style and added comfort. 

Skechers Slip-ins: Contour Foam – Cozy Fit, €90, with their chic colours and quilted detail, will go with a whole range of outfits, while their premium soft quilted materials wrap your feet in luxury, providing a cosy, natural fit, and the No Tie Fit® means laces never come untied.

Or for the ultimate in plush comfort, Skechers Slip-ins: Arch Fit Arcade – Cozy Fit Cuddle Steps, €90, has been granted the American Podiatric Medical Association Seal of Acceptance, and comes in a range of stylish shades. 

The Skechers Slip-ins: Hotshot HI – Lifted Luxe, €75, are ideal for the mum who loves a court style. With its duraleather and suede overlay upper with a lace-up front, and a contrast ‘S’ quarter logo, it combines contemporary style with the comfort you expect from Skechers Slip-ins.

And with the weather heating up, the Skechers Slip-ins: GO WALK Glide-Step 2.0 Sandal – Cozy Fit Jada, €90, has a contoured Goga Mat® footbed, and geometric Glide-Step® midsole combined with a responsive ULTRA GO® cushioning, so it is both chic and comfortable.

She’s strong and sporty

Whether she’s the kind of mum that’s always chasing a new PB, is happiest when lifting at the gym, or is always looking forward to her next yoga or Pilates class, a great pair of trainers is the perfect companion. Plus, slip-in styles save time when trying to fit a workout into a busy schedule. 

Skechers Slip-ins: Glide-Step Altus – Adrenaline Rush, €115, provide smooth cushioned comfort. Totally vegan, the design features a breathable monomesh upper with adjustable laces, a Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® comfort insole, and a Glide-Step® geometric cushioned midsole.

While the Skechers Slip-ins: Glide-Step Altus, €115, is another great option that comes in a range of cool shades. Plus, they’re machine washable, making it easy to refresh them between wears. 

Or for even more advanced technology, Skechers Slip-ins: Max Cushioning Glide-Step – Sapphire, €120, features a breathable Skechers Air-Cooled Goga Mat™ insole and anti-slip Goodyear® Performance Outsole, while Skechers Glide-Step® and Max Cushioning midsole cushioning technologies work together to deliver energy return with a smooth transition.
