Product Information
Full details
The Skechers UNO - Banksia Luxe Trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of sporty style and exceptional comfort for everyday wear. Their key benefit is the hands-free slip-in design, allowing for effortless on and off. A potential consideration is that while they offer comfort, they are fashion trainers and not specialized athletic footwear. Key features include a duraleather upper, Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole, and a visible Skech-Air® airbag midsole.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
No, the Skechers UNO - Banksia Luxe Trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities like running, which require specialized support and cushioning.
How do I clean the Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
The insoles are typically removable. You can hand wash them with mild soap and water and allow them to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or using heat to dry.
Can I adjust the fit of the laces?
These trainers feature fixed stretch laces, meaning they are not designed to be adjusted. The fit is intended to be snug and secure without manual lacing.
What does 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' mean?
It refers to Skechers' patented technology that allows you to easily slip the shoes on and off without bending down or using your hands. The design includes a unique heel construction and collar for this purpose.
What is the Heel Pillow®?
The Heel Pillow® is a component within the shoe's collar designed to provide a comfortable and secure fit around the heel, enhancing the hands-free slipping experience.
How do I best maintain the duraleather upper?
Wipe the duraleather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For any minor blemishes, use a cleaner formulated for synthetic leather, applying it gently. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive materials.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe
Ensure your socks are not too thick. The Heel Pillow® design might require a slight adjustment initially; try wiggling your foot gently. If the shoes are new, they may need a short break-in period.
Insole feels flat or loses cushioning
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may need cleaning or replacement. Follow the care instructions to clean it. If the cushioning has significantly degraded, consider purchasing replacement insoles.
Smell developing in the shoes
To combat odor, regularly remove and air out the insoles. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake out in the morning. Ensure the shoes are completely dry after wear.
Visible scuffs or marks on the duraleather
Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a leather cleaner specifically designed for synthetic leather may be used sparingly, following product instructions.

Care Instructions:
