Amazon has reduced the Skechers Women's Uno Stand On Air Sneakers from £79 to £34.99, a 56% discount on a style that more than 60,000 people have purchased on the platform.
The black trainers, available in UK sizes two to seven with a wide-fit option, have drawn praise from healthcare workers, teachers and retail staff, with many saying they can be worn all day without foot pain or discomfort.
Design and Features
The shoes feature a memory foam sole and a 'Skech-Air' air-cushioning midsole that some customers have compared to 'walking on clouds'. Perforated accents on the front panel and collar are designed to keep feet cool, while the lace-up fastening provides a sturdy, supportive fit.
With a sleek black design, white sole and matching black laces, the trainers are understated yet smart enough for work or casual days off.
Customer Reviews
An NHS worker wrote: "Working in the NHS on night shift so these shoes are my favourite!" Another reviewer commented on the sizing: "Really love the look of these shoes; they feel like walking on clouds. They do run smaller, I think, given the extra padding underfoot. I would size up if I was able to but didn't have in stock, so I went with my regular size, and it's still very comfortable when walking."
A healthcare assistant noted: "These shoes are very comfortable. As an HCA who works long hours, these feel amazing on my feet. I feel supported with the right amount of cushion to take strain off of my feet." The same reviewer added: "However, I have found that the shoes are really solid (hopefully this means they will last a good while), so much so that I find them very difficult to drive with them on."
Alternative Options
For those seeking alternatives, the New Balance Dynasoft Nitrel v6 Gore-Tex Shoes are on sale, reduced to £60 from £100, featuring GORE-TEX waterproof fabric that shields feet from wind, rain and water without compromising breathability.
FitFlop's Retro-Q Trainers, priced at £80, are also an option. One customer remarked: "Wore them straight out of the box on a city break, did 20,000 steps and they were perfect, no rubbing and no foot pain after. Have barely taken them off since and they go with everything."
Another purchaser of the Skechers Uno trainers shared: "I bought this for my wife and she loves it. She uses it for work where she is on her feet the entire day. She says it's really comfortable and she doesn't struggle with feet, ankle and knee pain." A final customer observed: "I love these Skechers Uno sneakers! They are very comfortable right out of the box and provide great support for walking or standing for long periods. The cushioning feels soft but still supportive, and the design is stylish enough to wear with casual outfits. They fit true to size and feel lightweight on my feet."
