FAQs

What does the D+ width fitting mean?

The D+ width indicates that these boots are wider than the standard shoe fitting, providing extra room in the forefoot for added comfort.

Are these boots waterproof?

While the rubber sole provides grip, the suede upper is not fully waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective spray to make them water-resistant.

How high is the heel on the Balban boot?

The heel height is approximately 3cm, providing a subtle, comfortable lift.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, you can remove the existing insoles to replace them with your own orthotics or additional cushioning if desired.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a specialized suede brush for dry cleaning. Avoid liquid cleaners unless they are specifically formulated for suede.

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

Yes, the Gabor Balban series is specifically designed with a D+ wide fitting for those needing more generous space.

Troubleshooting

Suede is showing water spots or dirt

Allow the boots to dry naturally away from heat, then use a dry suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove the marks.

Side zipper feels stuck or difficult to move

Clean the teeth of the zipper with a soft brush and apply a tiny amount of dry lubricant or beeswax to the zipper track.

Boots feel slightly too loose

Since these are D+ wide fitting, you can insert a thin cushioned insole to reduce internal volume and add extra arch support.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Generous D+ width ensures all-day comfort
  • Easy entry thanks to the zip and lace combination
  • Versatile design suitable for smart and casual outfits
  • Stable heel height for extended wear
  • High-quality suede finish

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to moisture and dirt
  • Requires regular upkeep to maintain the finish
  • Not intended for heavy-duty outdoor hiking

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Balban boots stay in peak condition, consider the following maintenance tips:

  1. Initial Protection: Treat the suede with a professional-grade waterproofing spray before your first wear to protect against light rain and spills.
  2. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and revitalize the nap of the material. Avoid using water directly on the suede.
  3. Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colour from fading.
  4. Zip Maintenance: Keep the side zips clear of debris to ensure smooth operation over time. If a zip feels stiff, a small amount of clear candle wax can help it glide more easily.
