FAQs

Are these sneakers machine washable?

While some Skechers models are machine washable, it is recommended to spot clean the Shimmer Away model to protect the metallic heel trim and synthetic upper.

How high is the wedge heel?

The UNO series typically features a subtle wedge rise of approximately 1.5 to 2 inches, providing a lift without compromising stability.

Do I need to tie the laces?

No, this model uses a stretch lace system designed for a slip-on feel, so the laces are decorative and functional for fit adjustment, not for tying.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

Some variants are produced in Wide sizing. Please verify your specific pair's label if extra width is required.

Can I replace the insole with custom orthotics?

The Air-Cooled Memory Foam insole is designed for the specific contour of this shoe; replacing it may alter the intended fit and comfort level.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is crafted from synthetic durabuck, which is a high-quality faux leather finish.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight over the instep

Adjust the tension of the stretch laces by manually guiding the cord through the eyelets to create a more relaxed fit.

Visible dirt on the faux leather upper

Use a microfiber cloth dampened with mild soap and water, gently wiping the surface before drying with a clean towel.

Loss of cushioning feel after long use

Remove the insole if possible to allow it to air out for 24 hours, or ensure the shoe is not exposed to excess moisture that may compress the foam.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced height from the wedge design
  • Excellent cushioning from memory foam technology
  • Easy slip-on convenience with stretch laces
  • Versatile aesthetic suitable for casual and semi-casual settings

Cons

  • Not intended for high-intensity sports or trail running
  • Faux leather material requires specific cleaning methods
  • Wedge heel may take time to adjust to for those used to flat soles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers feature a convenient stretch lace system, meaning no complex setup is required—simply slide them on. They are compatible with standard casual outfits, including jeans, leggings, and casual skirts. To care for your shoes, wipe the faux leather durabuck upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the sneakers in water or using harsh industrial solvents, as these can damage the synthetic material and the integrity of the memory foam insole. If the interior becomes damp, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the foam's shape.
