Product Information
Full details
The Skechers Street™ Hands Free Slip-ins®: UNO Glide-Step® - Air Gliders are designed for adults seeking comfortable, easy-to-wear athletic-inspired footwear for daily activities. The key benefit is the hands-free slip-in design combined with advanced cushioning for all-day comfort. A potential consideration is that the 'tied-off' stretch laces are decorative and do not offer adjustable tightening. This sneaker features a breathable engineered mesh upper, a supportive Heel Pillow®, Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole, and a Glide-Step® midsole with a visible Skech-Air® airbag for enhanced shock absorption.

FAQs
Are the laces functional?
No, the laces on the Skechers UNO Glide-Step - Air Gliders are decorative stretch laces and are not designed to be tied or adjusted.
What is the benefit of the Hands-Free Slip-ins® design?
The Hands-Free Slip-ins® design allows you to easily put on and take off the shoes without bending down or using your hands, offering maximum convenience.
How do I clean my Skechers UNO Glide-Step trainers?
It is recommended to spot clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap solution if needed. Ensure the shoes are air-dried and avoid direct heat.
Is this shoe suitable for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, offering excellent comfort for walking and standing. For running, a shoe with more specialized support and cushioning features would be more appropriate.
What does the Skech-Air® airbag do?
The visible Skech-Air® airbag integrated into the midsole provides enhanced shock absorption, contributing to a comfortable and cushioned stride.
What is the Heel Pillow®?
The Heel Pillow® is a design feature that provides a soft, supportive cushioning around the heel, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit.
Can I replace the insole?
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is generally not removable. However, if needed, it may be possible to place a very thin orthotic insert over the existing insole, but this could affect the fit.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe
Ensure your sock is smooth and not bunched up. Try slightly angling your foot as you slide it in. If the shoe feels too tight, double-check you have the correct size.
Insole feels uncomfortable or lacks support
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may require a short break-in period. If discomfort persists, consider if this particular shoe model is suited for your foot type and intended activity.
Skech-Air® airbag appears deflated or damaged
Visually inspect the airbag. If there is a clear puncture or deflation, discontinue use and contact customer support. Minor visual imperfections may not affect performance.
Shoes feel slippery on certain surfaces
The outsole is designed for general traction. If slipping occurs, particularly on wet or highly polished surfaces, exercise caution. Ensure the outsole is free of debris.
