Product Information

Full details

These Skechers UNO Glide-Step trainers are designed for adult males seeking all-day comfort and a convenient slip-on style. The key benefit is the Hands Free Slip-ins® design combined with advanced cushioning. A potential caveat is that the 'tied-off' stretch laces offer a secure fit but are not adjustable. Key features include the Heel Pillow® for a snug fit, an engineered mesh upper, Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole, and the Glide-Step® midsole with a visible Skech-Air® airbag for superior shock absorption and responsiveness.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

No, these trainers are designed for casual comfort and everyday wear. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with advanced support and performance features are recommended.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and materials. Hand wash or spot clean using a damp cloth and mild soap.

What is the main benefit of Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins®?

The primary benefit is the ability to put on and take off the shoes without using your hands, combined with a supportive heel design (Heel Pillow®) that ensures a secure fit.

How do I clean the visible Skech-Air® airbag?

The visible airbag is part of the midsole. Clean it gently with a damp cloth, similar to the rest of the midsole. Avoid using abrasive materials that could scratch the clear window.

Are the laces functional or decorative?

The laces are 'tied-off' stretch laces, meaning they are decorative and provide a snug, slip-on fit. They are not intended to be adjusted or tied.

What is the purpose of the Glide-Step® midsole?

The Glide-Step® midsole features a unique geometric design that enhances shock absorption, promotes a smoother stride, and contributes to the overall lightweight feel of the shoe.

What material is the upper made from?

The upper is made from an engineered mesh material, which is designed to be breathable and flexible for comfort.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose despite being slip-on

The 'tied-off' stretch laces are designed for a secure fit but are not adjustable. Ensure you have ordered the correct size. The Heel Pillow® technology should provide a snug feel around the ankle.

Reduced cushioning over time

Cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. To help maintain comfort, ensure the insoles are kept clean and dry. If significant degradation occurs, consider replacing the insoles with a compatible aftermarket option if available.

Difficulty sliding foot in

Ensure your heel is properly aligned with the Heel Pillow®. Try inserting your foot with a smooth motion. Wearing thin socks might make entry easier initially. The slip-on feature becomes more intuitive with use.

Mesh upper snagged or torn

For minor snags, a careful trim with small scissors might help. Avoid pulling at the snag. For significant tears, repair may not be feasible, and replacement might be necessary. Always be mindful of rough surfaces when wearing.

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the engineered mesh upper with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, use mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
