Product Information
Full details
The Gabor West trainers are designed for adult women seeking a blend of retro style and everyday comfort. Their key benefit lies in their versatile design, featuring removable insoles for customizable fit and support. A potential caveat for some users might be the C+ width fitting, which is a Gabor F fit, potentially narrower than standard.

FAQs
What material are the Gabor West trainers made of?
The uppers are made from a combination of Leather and Suede.
Can I wear my own insoles in these trainers?
Yes, the Gabor West trainers feature removable insoles, making them compatible with most custom orthotics or alternative insoles.
How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
For suede, use a suede brush to clean off dry dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner can be used cautiously, always testing first on a hidden spot.
What is the heel height of these trainers?
The heel height is approximately 2.5cm.
What does 'UK C+ (Gabor F) width fit' mean?
This refers to Gabor's sizing width. A C+ fitting generally corresponds to an F fitting in Gabor's system, which is often considered a standard to slightly narrow fit for women's footwear.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The C+ (Gabor F) width fitting is typically suited for standard to narrower feet. If you have wider feet, these may not provide the most comfortable fit without modification.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made of thermoplastic rubber, offering durability and traction.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel uncomfortable or uneven
Adjust the lacing pattern or tension. Ensure the tongue is centered and lies flat.
Suede appears dull or stained
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent stains, consult a specialized suede cleaning product and test on an inconspicuous area first.
Insole doesn't feel supportive enough
Remove the original insole and replace it with a custom orthotic or a more supportive insole designed for trainers.
Shoes feel slightly tight
Loosen the laces and wear for short periods. Consider removing the insole if you need a little extra space, or if using a thicker sock.
