FAQs

Are these trainers true to size?

Gabor footwear generally runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. The adjustable laces and zip fastening also help achieve a comfortable, personalized fit.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather upper offers some resistance, these trainers are not fully waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain to protect the metallic leather finish and prolong the life of your shoes. A suitable leather protector spray can offer some water repellency.

How do I clean the metallic silver material?

For best results, gently wipe the metallic leather surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners, abrasive brushes, or vigorous rubbing, as these can damage the delicate finish. Allow to air dry completely.

Are the insoles replaceable?

Yes, the Gabor Wisdom trainers feature removable insoles, allowing you to replace them with custom orthotics or preferred insoles for personalized comfort and support.

What type of outfits do these trainers go best with?

Their versatile design, particularly the modern metallic silver, makes them suitable for a wide range of casual and smart-casual outfits. They pair exceptionally well with jeans, shorts, skirts, and even casual dresses for a chic spring and summer look.

Do they offer arch support?

Designed for everyday comfort and support, the Gabor Wisdom trainers provide good foundational support. The removable insoles also allow for the addition of specialized arch supports if you require extra assistance for your foot type.

Can these be worn for extensive walking?

Absolutely. The Gabor Wisdom trainers are designed with comfort and support in mind, making them ideal for everyday wear and extended periods of walking, such as city explorations or daily errands.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the laces for a customized fit. Remember, the removable insoles allow for more space if removed, or you can replace them with thinner ones for a snugger feel. Ensure the side zip is fully fastened for proper support.

Metallic finish appears dull or scratched.

Gently wipe the surface with a soft, clean, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and potentially restore shine. For minor scratches, a specialized metallic leather polish might help, but always test it first on an inconspicuous area. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners.

A squeaking sound occurs when walking.

This can sometimes happen between the insole and the shoe's base. Try removing the insoles, dusting the inside of the shoe and the bottom of the insoles with a little cornstarch or baby powder, then reinserting them. Also, ensure laces are tied securely.

Foot discomfort or rubbing.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Break in new shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially. Check if the removable insoles are properly seated. If discomfort persists, consider consulting a footwear specialist or trying different insoles for better support.

Zip is sticking or difficult to fasten.

Ensure no fabric or debris is caught in the zipper teeth. You can try rubbing a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant along the teeth to help it glide more smoothly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

To easily put on your Gabor Wisdom trainers, first unfasten the side zip completely. Loosen the laces to create enough space for your foot to comfortably slide in. Once your foot is in place, tighten the laces to achieve your desired level of snugness and support. Finally, zip up the side fastener to secure the shoe. The combination of the zip and laces allows for both quick wear and a customized, secure fit.

Compatibility (Styling)

These trainers are incredibly versatile and designed to complement a wide range of outfits:

  • Trousers: Pair them with anything from tailored trousers for a smart-casual office look to casual chinos or jeans for a relaxed weekend style.
  • Shorts: An excellent choice for a chic and comfortable summer ensemble.
  • Skirts & Dresses: Elevate your casual dresses or skirts with a modern, comfortable twist, adding a touch of metallic flair.

The metallic silver finish makes them a stylish complement to both neutral and vibrant color palettes, offering endless styling possibilities for spring and summer.

Product Care

To maintain the elegant metallic finish and leather quality of your Gabor Wisdom trainers:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner suitable for metallic finishes, always testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive materials, or scrubbing vigorously, as this can damage the metallic coating.
  • Drying: If your trainers become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources (like radiators) or direct sunlight, which can cause the leather to crack or the metallic finish to dull.
  • Protection: Consider applying a high-quality leather protector spray specifically designed for metallic or finished leathers. This can help repel water and stains, offering an extra layer of defense.
  • Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees or crumpled acid-free paper inside them can help maintain their original shape when not in use.
