FAQs

What material is the Gola Viper Trainers made of?

The upper is made of 100% leather. The lining is a combination of 50% PU and 50% non-woven lining, and the sole is 100% rubber.

How should I clean my Viper Trainers?

They should be wiped clean only. Use a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid machine washing or submerging them in water.

What is the fit like for these trainers?

They feature a classic trainer silhouette with a seven-eyelet facing for a secure fit. Sizing is standard for women's UK sizes.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While they are leather, the gum sole might offer less grip on very wet surfaces. It's advisable to be cautious in wet conditions and ensure the shoes are properly cared for to maintain their material integrity.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the tongue area. If the issue persists, check for loose components or consult customer support.

Leather scuffs or marks

For minor scuffs, try buffing the area gently with a soft, dry cloth. For more persistent marks, use a specialized leather cleaner or a cream polish matching the shoe's color. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

Sole feels slippery

The gum sole offers flexibility but may have reduced grip on extremely wet or smooth surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean. For added traction, consider using a rubber sole spray or visiting a cobbler for potential sole enhancements.
