FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The UNO Glide-Step trainers are designed primarily for comfort and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning for walking and light activities, they may not provide the specific support and stability required for high-impact running.
How do I clean the engineered mesh upper?
Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a small amount of mild soap diluted in water and scrub lightly with a soft brush. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.
What is the Skech-Air® airbag for?
The visible Skech-Air® airbag is an advanced cushioning technology integrated into the midsole. It provides enhanced shock absorption and responsive support, contributing to the overall comfort of the shoe.
Can I remove the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole?
Yes, the Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole is typically removable, allowing for easier cleaning and the option to replace it with custom orthotics if desired.
How does the 'Hands Free Slip-ins®' feature work?
The unique design includes a padded collar and a special heel construction (Heel Pillow®) that allows you to slide your foot into the shoe without bending down or using your hands. The heel comfortably accommodates your foot.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The engineered mesh upper is breathable but not waterproof. These trainers are best suited for dry conditions. Exposure to significant moisture may lead to wet feet.
What is the Glide-Step® midsole?
The Glide-Step® midsole features a unique geometric design that works to create a smoother transition from the heel strike to the toe-off during your walking stride, promoting a more comfortable and efficient gait.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
While these are slip-ins, the stretch laces offer some adjustability. Ensure your foot is positioned correctly within the shoe. If consistently uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate or if the Heel Pillow® needs a short break-in period.
Difficulty slipping feet in
Ensure the Heel Pillow® is fully accessible and not obstructed. Try a slight twisting motion as you slide your foot in. The design is intended for ease, so persistent difficulty may indicate a sizing issue or a need for the shoe to be worn in.
Insole feels flat or less cushioned over time
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® insole may compress with regular use. Try removing the insole and letting it air out for 24 hours. If the cushioning has significantly degraded, consider replacing the insole with a compatible aftermarket insert.
Unpleasant odor developing
Remove the insoles and allow both the shoes and insoles to air out completely. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out. Regular cleaning and airing can prevent future odor buildup.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the engineered mesh upper gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Sole: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to clean the rubber outsole and midsole. Ensure to remove any dirt or debris.
