FAQs
What type of occasions are these sandals best suited for?
The Gabor Affection sandals are ideal for casual outings, everyday wear, relaxed social gatherings, and holidays. Their comfort and style make them versatile for various non-formal events.
What is the heel height of these sandals?
The heel height is 4.5cm, featuring a sponge-style platform for added comfort and cushioning.
Can I replace the insoles with my own orthotics?
No, the insoles in the Gabor Affection sandals are not designed to be removable. This means they cannot easily accommodate custom orthotics.
What is the width fitting?
These sandals have a UK C+ Standard width fitting, which corresponds to a Gabor F fitting. This is generally suitable for average to slightly wide feet.
How do I adjust the fit of the sandal?
The fit can be adjusted using both the rip tape fastening across the foot and the decorative buckle strap, allowing you to secure them to your preference.
Are these sandals waterproof?
No, the Gabor Affection sandals are made from suede and leather, which are not waterproof materials. They should be protected from excessive moisture.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole unit is made of durable Polyurethane (PU).
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur with new footwear. Try walking on different surfaces or gently powdering the insole area with talcum powder (if accessible) or checking if the buckle mechanism is rubbing.
Discomfort after extended wear
Ensure the rip tape and buckle are adjusted correctly for optimal support. If the issue persists, the shoe's width fitting might not be ideal for your foot shape.
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent marks, consult a specialist suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Avoid exposing the suede to water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: These sandals require no assembly and are ready to wear upon purchase. Ensure the rip tape and buckle are adjusted for a comfortable fit before your first wear.
Compatibility: Designed for adult female wear. The UK C+ Standard (Gabor F) width fitting is suitable for average to slightly wide feet. The non-removable insoles mean they are not designed to accommodate custom orthotics without potential fit issues.
Care:
- Suede Upper: To maintain the suede, use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and dust. For tougher stains, consider a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully. Protect from excessive moisture.
- Lining: The leather lining can be wiped gently with a slightly damp cloth if needed. Allow to air dry completely.
- Sole: The PU sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in a shoe bag to protect the material.
