Product Information
Full details
The Gola Equipe II is a terrace-influenced trainer designed for adults seeking a blend of 70s-inspired style and everyday comfort. Featuring a durable leather construction, these shoes offer a versatile aesthetic that pairs perfectly with casual denim or chinos, though their classic low-profile design provides limited arch support for long-distance athletic activities.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Gola Equipe II generally fits true to standard UK adult sizing.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, washing machines can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the construction of the sole. Stick to manual cleaning.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
While the leather is durable, they are not waterproof. If you plan to wear them in rain, consider applying a leather-safe water repellent spray.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from high-quality leather, while the outsole is made of durable rubber.
Do these provide arch support?
They feature a standard flat footbed. If you require significant arch support, you may wish to use an aftermarket insole.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Double-knot the laces or replace them with higher-friction cotton laces if the factory ones are too slick.
Creasing on the leather upper
This is a natural occurrence with leather; use shoe trees when the trainers are not being worn to help retain their shape.
Stiff fit upon initial wear
Leather requires a break-in period. Wear them for short durations indoors to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required; simply adjust the laces upon the first wear to achieve your preferred tension. To ensure your leather trainers remain in top condition, wipe them down with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt after use. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner, and always avoid submerging the shoes in water or placing them in a dryer. To maintain their shape when not in use, consider using shoe trees.
