Skechers Champions Off-Court Style

There’s a synergy between star athletes and their sneakers, an electricity that surges both on the court or field and off. Their shoes’ design reflects their identity, and in many cases even becomes a part of their legacy. In no sport is this more the case than professional basketball, which has long had its players celebrated nearly as much for personal style as for their skills. Today, their sartorial choices are carefully examined, consumed, and replicated by fashion lovers worldwide. And it starts from the ground up.

The magnetism, the allure, that sneakers can evoke is something Skechers knows all about. The footwear giant has a reputation for fun, expressive designs and has always tapped trend-forward talents to showcase its collection. And the concept of championing partnerships lies at the core of Uno Chaos—a new Skechers fashion sneaker modeled by professional basketball’s rising stars Rickea Jackson and Terance Mann.

Indeed, the Uno Chaos is a unisex shoe, one intended to be worn off-court. Made of a combination of leather, suede, and mesh, the Y2K-inspired design is a mashup of two Skechers classics: It features the upper of the D’Lites and wrap around Skech-Air airbag midsole of the Uno. The resulting chunky silhouette is equal parts funky, futuristic, and fashion-forward.

With its insole made from Skechers’ proprietary Air-Cooled Memory Foam, the Uno Chaos is super-comfortable, too. What’s more, the collection comes in eye-catching shades of lavender, sage, black, and white, offering the opportunity to mix and match the style with all the season’s hottest trends.

But if you need help pinpointing how to incorporate the Uno Chaos into your wardrobe, let Jackson and Mann be your guides. Here, these two style-setters exhibit cool and fresh ways to wear the sneaker—and become the MVP of your own circle.

Rickea Jackson

At the dawn of the 21st century, baggy trousers and midriff-baring shirts were all the rage, favored by the hottest pop and R&B divas of the day. And now this bold and flirty way of dressing has come back into the fashion fold. Case in point: Rickea Jackson’s super-cute and super-cool ensemble, consisting of glossy taupe cargo pants and a gray long-sleeve crop top. The small forward completes the look, of course, with a pair of Uno Chaos sneakers in white—the perfect shoe to wear on tunnel walks, strolls around the neighborhood, or just chilling with friends.

Terance Mann

Dressing to impress doesn’t have to mean dressing to the nines—in fact oftentimes, it’s the simplest things that make the most impact. Just take a look at the range of point guard Terance Mann’s refined and relaxed outfits: a black boxy shirt and drawstring joggers; a track jacket and black tourers; roomy chinos, white tee, and intarsia sweater-vest. The connecting thread is that they are all categorically comfortable, ideal for days at home or quiet nights at a local watering hole alike—and that they all match perfectly with the Uno Chaos sneaker in black. That’s what we call versatility.
