FAQs
Are these shoes truly hands-free?
Yes, they feature Skechers' Hands-Free Slip-ins® design with a Heel Pillow™ that allows you to slip them on without using your hands.
What is the main advantage of the Skech-Air® midsole?
The Skech-Air® visible airbag midsole provides enhanced shock absorption and cushioning, contributing to a more comfortable walking experience.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand wash the insoles separately if needed, and wipe the uppers and outsoles with a damp cloth.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made of duraleather, which offers a balance of style and durability, with perforated details for breathability.
Are the laces adjustable?
No, this model features fixed stretch laces that provide a secure fit without the need for tying. The design is intended to be a slip-on.
What type of socks are best to wear with these trainers?
For optimal comfort and ease of slipping on, standard athletic socks or thinner socks are recommended. Very thick socks may make them harder to put on initially.
What is the Heel Pillow™?
The Heel Pillow™ is a design feature within the heel collar that provides cushioning and helps secure the foot, aiding in the hands-free slip-on functionality.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty slipping foot into the shoe
Ensure your heel is fully back in the shoe and that the sock you are wearing is not too thick. You may need to slightly widen the opening with your hands on the first few wears.
Insole feels uncomfortable or shifted
Remove the insole and ensure it is properly seated. If it continues to be uncomfortable, try wearing the shoes with socks that provide more cushioning or consider a different insole insert suitable for athletic shoes.
Noticeable creasing on the duraleather upper
Some creasing is normal with wear. To minimize excessive creasing, ensure the shoes fit correctly and avoid over-tightening if you were to use alternative lacing methods (though not recommended for this model).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers are designed for immediate wear. Simply slip them on your feet; no lacing or adjustment is required due to the fixed stretch laces and Hands-Free Slip-ins® design.
Compatibility: Suitable for adult men. These trainers are designed for casual wear and are compatible with most casual outfits. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. For specific sizing, the UK size 8 is detailed here, but the UNO - Banksia Luxe series is available in various sizes and colors.
Care: To maintain the appearance and integrity of the trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the duraleather and textile upper with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap and water solution, then wipe clean with a dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Insole: The Skechers Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole can often be removed. Hand wash gently with mild soap and cool water, then allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris from the midsole and outsole. Ensure the visible airbag is not punctured or exposed to extreme pressure.
- Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
