FAQs

What is the C+ width fitting?

The C+ width fitting is Gabor's designation for a shoe designed with a slightly wider last than their standard fit (Gabor F), offering more comfort for individuals who need a bit of extra room in their footwear.

Are these shoes suitable for work?

Yes, their classic design, comfortable construction, and professional appearance make them suitable for many office environments, especially when paired with appropriate attire.

How do I clean the suede and patent leather parts?

Suede should be brushed regularly and treated with a protector spray. Patent leather can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals on both materials.

What is the heel height?

The heel height is approximately 1cm, providing a subtle lift without significantly impacting comfort or stability.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While suede can be treated for water resistance, it is generally best to avoid wearing suede shoes in heavy rain. The patent leather toe cap offers some protection, but prolonged exposure to moisture is not recommended.

What kind of socks are best to wear with these shoes?

Thin or no-show socks are recommended to maintain comfort and fit, especially given the C+ width. Thicker socks may make the shoes feel too snug.

How do I break in new Gabor Temptation shoes?

These shoes are designed for immediate comfort. However, wearing them for short periods initially can help them mold perfectly to your feet. The leather insoles will adapt to your foot shape over time.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight despite C+ width fitting

Ensure your socks are not too thick. If the issue persists, consider professional shoe stretching services, though the C+ width is designed for broader comfort.

Suede material looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be employed. Always follow with a suede protector spray.

Patent leather toe cap scuffed

For minor scuffs, a patent leather cleaner or a soft cloth lightly dampened with water might help. Avoid products not specifically designed for patent leather.

Discomfort after extended wear

Ensure the shoes are the correct size and width. The leather footbed may need a short breaking-in period. Allow shoes to air out between wears.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Suitable for adult women. The C+ width fitting is compatible with individuals who require a slightly wider shoe base. They pair well with a variety of outfits, from casual jeans to more formal attire.

Care:

  • Suede: Use a suede brush to remove dirt and revive the nap. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Protect with a suitable suede protector spray to guard against water and stains.
  • Patent Leather: Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the patent finish.
  • Linings and Insoles: The leather insoles can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth. Ensure shoes are completely dry before wearing again to prevent mildew.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage.
