Product Information
Full details
The Gabor Dolly Trainers are designed for adult women seeking stylish and comfortable everyday footwear. Their key benefit is the combination of a fashionable low-sole design with practical features like a removable insole suitable for orthopedic inserts and a Best Fitting design for a wider forefoot. A potential consideration is that while they offer lace-up closure, they also include a side zip, which might be a preference factor for some users.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the Gabor Dolly Trainers feature a 'Best Fitting' design, which means they are constructed with a wider forefoot area to provide greater comfort for wider feet.
Can I use my own orthopedic insoles with these shoes?
Absolutely. The trainers come with a removable insole, making them perfectly suitable for replacing with your own custom or standard orthopedic insoles.
How do I clean the suede material?
For general cleaning, use a suede brush to remove dust and restore the texture. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended, following the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
What is the heel height of the Gabor Dolly Trainers?
The heel height is approximately 4.5 cm.
How do I put on the trainers quickly?
You can adjust the laces once for a perfect fit and then use the side zipper for fast and easy on-and-off each time you wear them.
What is the material of the upper and lining?
The upper is made of suede leather, and the lining is made of leather for a comfortable feel.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
The product information provided specifically describes the blue and white variant. Please check with the retailer for availability of other colors in the Dolly series.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight in the forefoot
Loosen the laces significantly and utilize the side zipper for easier adjustment. If discomfort persists, consider if the 'Best Fitting' design is still not sufficient for your foot shape.
Suede material looks dull or has marks
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For tougher marks, use a dedicated suede cleaner according to the product's instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently try to move it. Rubbing the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil (from a standard pencil) can act as a dry lubricant.
Insole does not fit correctly after replacement
Ensure you are using the correct size replacement insole. Verify that the original Gabor insole has been fully removed and that the new insole is placed flat within the shoe.
