FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?

Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull or loses its luster
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to nourish the material and restore its original shine.
Creasing at the toe box
Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing the shoes to help maintain their shape and minimize natural leather creases.
Gum sole picking up dark marks
Use a white pencil eraser or a dedicated sneaker cleaner to gently buff away scuffs on the gum rubber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gola Equipe II trainers maintain their longevity, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after wear to remove surface dust.
- Stain Removal: Use a gentle, leather-specific cleaning solution for tougher marks; avoid harsh detergents that may strip the finish.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading of the navy and vista blue accents.
- Weather Protection: Apply a leather protector spray to the white surface to help repel water and prevent deep staining from incidental moisture.
