Full details
The Gola Torpedo Trainers are designed for adult women who appreciate a blend of heritage 80s aesthetics and contemporary casual style. These sneakers offer a standout look with high-quality suede materials and the iconic Gola branding, making them an excellent choice for daily wear; however, because they feature suede construction, they are best suited for dry conditions rather than heavy-duty outdoor or wet-weather use.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, suede material should never be machine washed as it will cause the fabric to shrink and lose its shape.
Do Gola Torpedo trainers fit true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK shoe sizes. If you prefer a wider fit, some users suggest sizing up half a size.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Water and mud can cause permanent staining and damage to the delicate suede surface.
What is the best way to store them?
Store in a breathable shoe bag or a cool, dry closet to prevent moisture buildup and colour fading from UV exposure.
Are these suitable for long-distance running?
No, these are lifestyle fashion trainers inspired by vintage sneakers and lack the shock absorption and support needed for running.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or flat
Use a soft suede brush to gently lift the nap of the material and restore its texture.
Stains appearing on the surface
Use a specialized suede eraser for targeted spot cleaning; avoid using water or household soaps.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gola Torpedo trainers stay in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:
- Breaking In: New suede shoes may feel slightly snug initially. Allow for a short wear-in period to let the material adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. Avoid getting the shoes soaked.
- Protection: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first wear to guard against spills.
- Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the blue colour over time.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to standard UK sizing; ensure you have checked your size against our provided sizing guide for the best fit.
