FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
These trainers feature a UK C+ (Gabor F) width fit, which is generally considered a standard to wider fit. However, individual foot shapes vary, and the removable insole allows for some adjustment.
Can I wear these trainers for sports activities?
The Gabor West trainers are designed for casual wear and comfort, not for high-impact sports. They offer good everyday traction but lack the specialized support of performance athletic footwear.
How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and lift the nap. For stains, it is best to use a dedicated suede cleaner, following the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
What is the heel height?
The heel height is 2.5cm.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics or alternative insoles for personalized comfort and support.
What materials are the trainers made of?
The uppers are made from a combination of leather and suede. The lining is leather, and the sole is thermoplastic rubber.
Troubleshooting
Stiff materials causing initial discomfort
Wear the trainers around the house for short periods to allow them to break in. Ensure socks are worn during this period.
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For tougher marks, consider a suede cleaner following product instructions.
Laces are difficult to keep tied
Ensure laces are of good quality. Double-knotting can provide a more secure tie.
