Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your Gabor WISDOM Trainers are ready to wear right out of the box. Simply:
- Lace Up: Thread the laces through the eyelets.
- Adjust for Fit: Loosen the laces, slide your foot in, and then tighten the laces to achieve a snug, comfortable fit. Ensure they are not too tight to allow for natural foot movement.
- Tie Securely: Fasten the laces with a secure knot.
Compatibility
These trainers feature a 'Regular' shoe width and standard UK sizing. They are designed for adult wearers. Their neutral beige color and versatile casual style make them compatible with a wide range of wardrobe choices, from light denim to flowy summer dresses.
Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your leather Gabor WISDOM Trainers, follow these care instructions:
- Regular Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and dust. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
- Deep Cleaning (if needed): For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a high-quality leather conditioner. This helps to moisturize the leather, preventing it from drying out, cracking, and maintaining its suppleness. Apply in small amounts and buff gently.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, although this product is not fully waterproof.
- Drying: If trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Lace Care: If laces become worn or frayed, they can be replaced.
